Woo Hoo!
Bought 3 Lister Petters from work today for $20! I almost needed a paper bag to breath in
So what I have is 1 running SR1 (1 cyl air cooled 7.5hp) (S/N 5266SR1A21) Needs some TLC injection pump leaking fuel into crankcase and blew out crank seal.
And 2 LPA3 (3 cyl air cooled) (S/N 4300528LPA3A079) 1 running... 1 missing injection pumps sitting out in the open for 7 years
The mechanic that works on the ground support equipment (I work at an airport on commercial airliners) says "I don't know anything about diesels" so these engines have been just sitting needing simple repairs.
Over lunch the ground support equipment manager (Bill) handed me a new in the box Lister Petter injection pump for the SR1 "Here put this in your lunch box you will find a use for it"
"Oh I have all the shop manuals for the engines you can have those too"
All came from light towers at work and were sold to me for scrap value. I may get too keep the generator heads too but Bill was undecided on those.
I should go buy a lotto ticket.....
I will post pictures when I can.
