Tibster's genny arrived safe and sound yesterday http://www.navitron.org.uk/forum/index.php/topic,14524.0.html and I just can't believe how good it is. He said 50 hours only but I doubt that it's even done that.





not even any carbon in  the exhaust and look at that valve gear 



Changed the fuel filter, connected everything up, turned the handle and it fire up as soon as it came on TDC  not even one full turn of the engine

Put some batteries on it and away she went 

Anyone interested in a 1978 Lister ST2 7Kw electric start with a gazzillion hours on it

Your actually going to sell one lol.

I've got to sell 'Twinny' to make room for 'Cyril' Justme 

There's nowt wrong with the ST2 but he has done at the very least 80,000 hours and he's still not had the heads off. Still uses hardly any oil, and what he does use leaks out of him  Starts first time whatever the weather, but when the SR2 came up I just couldn't resist 

At some point we're going to have to sell the old home to finance the new one so I thought it would be good to leave a 'new' genny there as I'll be taking Harry the HR2 with me, and judging by current eBay prices I'd get as much for Twinny as I paid for Cyril 

Though I'd let him go for £400 to a forum member.

Cheers, Paul
