Lister D now running....but small fuel leak

<< < (2/2)

cobbadog:
Great news and outcome. Now go out there and make it run for hours and while that is happening find something to attach to it so it can be under load when running, they love it.

ajcooper4:
Thanks cobbadog that's exactly what I am going to do next - find something for it to drive.  No luck yet though.

cobbadog:
Small generators and water pumps are common some air compressors are out there. I was going to build a 'Prony Brake' one time which was going to be a little bit involved but it demonstrates the HP of the engine and would really load it up for short periods of time.

Just find an old open-drive air-mover fan - they're the easiset load around
