In a future all-electric world of renewables and fusion reactors I hope there are a few Listers and similar lying in museums that we can start up when there is another Carrington event and grid is down. 🤔
OK, a LONG time ago, I worked at a rental yard, that had 2 different Lister powered generators. 1 was a 2 cylinder, the other was 3 cylinders. When they were warm, two cranks on the 2 cyl, release the compression release on one cyl, and it would start. Chunk-chunk. Release next cyl, chunkchunk-chunkchunk. Wish I could find those again! Boss's grandfather was supplying extra power to the Boulder (Hoover) Dam, with them. Or so I was told. steve
this is the type of diesel I need for my schooner project, long stroke, low RPM, big flywheels, hand start capability, don't know if you still have this or where you are, but thanks for the demo of that engine
I always have problems starting those engines with the handle. I prefer the electric method. But alot of people seem to be comfortable with those handles and start those engines with ease. I can spend sometimes 30 minutes just trying to start the engine.
HAI it s from india if you want u can go for Topland engine or vidatha india or fieldmarshal listeroid engine Pls google u wil get details These company hasnt hv sparepart issues Thanks brother
I was looking at this and trying to figure out where and how a serpentine belt would work, then I thought that perhaps you mis-spoke and meant to say 'polyvee' belt. I gathered that by noticing the poly-vee pulley on the generator shaft. I'll tell you one thing, it might be a Lister Clone, but it starts with a lot less smoke than an original Lister does. That's a sweet running engine , I'll give you that !
Do you list your equipment for sale on the internet? I happen to be looking for a real generator. I have a 5K and a 10K box store models and still find myself in need of a generator....
I occasionally sell generators on my local craigslist; I'm not really in the business though...its more of a hobby that I occasionally earn a few $$ at! I will have a trailer mounted MEP-002a for sale sometime in the coming weeks...
Nice I bet you will miss that sound. My Grandfather built his own compressor had a unique sound to it. Good luck with the sale I am to far away to peak at it.
Found this chart with a google search, I don't know if it's accurate, but I like those numbers! Consumption at 1/4 load 0.163 gallons/hour Consumption at 1/2 load 0.192 gallons/hour Consumption at 3/4 load 0.251 gallons/hour Consumption at full load 0.296 gallons/hour Fuel Tank Capacity 2.5 gallons Run Time at 1/4 Load 15.3 hours
For one of these sitting on casters, this is a well balanced engine for sure. Very smooth running, no jerking around.

Sweet running. Has a good lick to it.
I like your engine, where can a person get one here in the U.S.A. 😇🙏

Sewerzuk: I might like this old fake Lister as much as your military repurposed gensets.
Haha, thanks. I’m a sucker for industrial machinery. I just can’t seem to hold onto it…sold that lister clone several years ago. Wish I still had it!

if you wanted to, you could probably rig up a small turbocharger and get some more power out of it.
A turbo charger on a CS style engine!!! Jesus wept🤦♂️
Please stalling a turbocharger in This engine
