This guy is on some serious drugs.  He also strikes me as the kind of perpetual victim that is making a living off of you and me through the federal government.

my 79 years old dad; with his life time experience with Lister CS will always tell me thats the wrong way the dipper is pointing as in "the pic" without bother to tell me the reason.

so out of teenage curiosity, i fixed the dipper in the wrong orientation on one occassion without his knowledge nor permission.

2 days later, the owner came to the shop and told my dad the CS we had fixed is leaking oil in every corners. my dad give me a one kind look and asked me to solve the problem with the dipper. i obediently re orientate it and the owner stop coming to shop for sometime until the next overhaul.

i learnt from that day, the Dursley CS cannot accept the dipper in any other direction.

OK, now what about the listeroids with the (Zyser) dippers and the solid top shell rod bearings? How do they lube turned turned sideways? Do the Zyser equiped dippers leak more? The old style stuff does not look like he stole the Zyser design. Maybe this comment should be a new post? Not much about the Zyser dipper and bearing mod as to run times lately. My own twin is still in work now modifying oil feed system, cooling system, heat recovery system, I guess I never learned the kiss principle. I get too many ideas from this forum to ever complete it.Picked up lots of tools ,welder, lathe, drill press, mill table, ect. I really am happy though and would not have it any other way.

All gone again :(

I am pretty fresh into these engines but this is the thrird time he has pulled the dissapearing act, on line at least.  Yes, I like to entertain myself with his ramblings.

My curious side does wonder how many engines he actualy has dealt with?  and the connection with Power Anand since I actualy own one of those and I find it to be just another Indian engine, truthfully the worst one I own and one the list to be torn down and rebuilt correctly.

Oh well, I guess that means we don't have to sue his ass to kingdom come... shame in a way, we could have bought a gold plated server to host the forum on  ::)
Cheers!
