If Paul is unwilling to shoehorn a random engine In I feel it's only right he should pass on the torch an let me put a Lister in it

Only if it is a hand crank starter. Don't want to go to complicated on these things.

 

[Mogman]

I can’t believe you are considering paying for parts to fix something, and aren’t going to shoehorn something the same/better back in that turned up in a load of scrap!
I think I can speak for many members on here when I say it is disappointing and rather deflating to see you approach this issue in such a sensible way Paul. I think you need to reconsider how you tackle this issue, and potentially close this thread if you insist upon following this particular path.

Ok I’ll bow to pier pressure and fit a random engine in it just to keep my thread alive so you (Rory) can keep your oily mitts off it..............lister for fooks sake

ok ... so you've remembered the "random" Yanmar lump you have sat

 

[Mark]

Give Jay Trac or kedgeworth 2000 a call they will be able to source a rebuild kit for it.

Well I had a rummage around and found this one I’ve had for a few years as a replacement for the buggiscopic, it came off a suitcase conveyor from the airport

it’s also what is in my jcb520-40 a 4 cylinder Perkins So had to remove the auto transmission and a few other bits like the old mounts to be left with this after the torque converter had been removed

So pulled the pump from the old motor and need to mate the two together

ive got to make an adaptor out of the drive from the Perkins to the doughnut pump drive

so after a hour on the lathe a bit of careful measurements managed to get the drive mounted on the new engine

not too bad for a mornings work (surprising what you can do without any distractions)
got to make an adapter to mate the two together then I can mount the pump on the engine then concentrate on the engine mounts (which are nowhere near where they need to be)
hope your happy now @Monkeybusiness

Well I’ll sell the trailer going to look into the engine problem and make a decision whether I move it on or keep it

Is the trailer a homemade job or a proper thing? Ie something you’d sell me with knowing me...

It’s home grown looks a strong thing but not for you Dave (I do know you) but a coat of paint would make all the differenc, could send it down to Wales and get V8 paint it for you he’d like that

I have got a scrap man down Devon way interested

Had a day on it today managed to make the bell housing adaptor cut out of a piece of 1/4” plate

then cut a rough hole in the middle for the drive to poke through while mark and drill the pump side

Not go a picture but did open the hole out a bit and made it neater

had to drill and tap the studs that hold the pump on as it interfered with the original bell housing
did all this work without knowing if it actually fitted (did a few measurements)
But

it does had to take the inlet and exhaust manifolds off to get it in made a start on the engine mounts as they are both totally incompatible the pump has to fit under the oil tank which has a curved bottom that is snug to say the least and the engine sump is bigger on this one too but at least it’s in

It’s way better than the ‘Buy an engine rebuild kit off the shelf’ show!
