Lister CS 6/1 2.5kW Startomatic startup
Переглядів 150 тис.4 роки тому
Startup of a Lister CS 6/1 2.5kW startomatic set using a single light bulb. The control system detects that the light bulb is in circuit, which begins the starting sequence. These generators were common in rural Britain in the days before the National Grid reached these areas. Many now survive in preservation and some are still used as backup generators.

My 8PB running on a sunny rallyfield on a Sunday afternoon. It's running on paraffin after having been warmed up on petrol.

Переглядів 1,7 тис.9 років тому
Starting the 8PB in mid January at -1°C. A bit of backfiring initially but it settled down with a richer mixture. The carburettor air shutter was opened some more after a couple of minutes running once the engine had warmed up.

A small garden crank-up of the Ruston Hornsby 8PB and Lister D, running at slightly different speeds. Both are running on petrol but the Ruston can also be run of paraffin once warmed up, it does spit, fart and clunk a bit on paraffin though.

Lister D engine which came from the Isle of Arran, apparently it was found in a derelict barn where it had sat for a long time. When I got it the exhaust valve was rusted solid in the guide and took quite a bit of effort to free off. The valves have now been ground in, oil changed and gaskets replaced. I also constructed the wooden trolley for it. This was its first run in many years and it wen...

This Ruston Hornsby 8PB works hard for its petrol - here it is running a saw bench used for chopping up firewood. This engine and saw bench were sold by Wallaces of Ayr in 1940 and have always been kept together. I am the third owner, the previous owner had the engine and bench set up in a large shed for 47 years! It was originally mounted on the floor on large wooden beams, the current trolley...

My newly acquired Ruston Hornsby 8PB chugging away after a carburettor clean. I stuck a bit of spare steel pipe on the exhaust to reduce the noise a bit, as it was deafening with the short pipe. It will get a proper silencer soon. The trolley was built by myself, previously it was mounted on wooden bearers with a saw bench, in a shed that it had been in since 1967. The engine was made in 1940 a...

      It is linked to the garage via a changeover switch, which allows the garage to be run on mains or the generator. I haven’t linked it to the house yet but this may happen in future. Currently it runs on diesel but the Lister CS can also run on alternative fuels like veg oil.

    I've had some amazing contacts without using burners the best was a SSB contact to Australia using a Ham International Concord 11 and a silver rod 12 watts. I've also contacted around the UK and a fair bit of Europe with a basic 4 watt set in the car with several anntena over the years. I was sitting in the carpark of B&Q Falkirk central Scotland talking to a guy from Dover. My favourite contact was one day while walking the dog I grabbed a realistic walkie talkie I had on UK 40 it was a small 40 channel 4 watt rig with a could rubber duck antena that day I was talking to a guy about 55 miles away Is it just me or do you think it's more fun contacting a distant station with basic kit rather that running huge burners through beam Antennas.

    using standard powered is always good. those with 1kw burners sat up on a hill speaking across Europe think they are doing well. it's laughable, taking a scaffold pole and a 5/8 wave dipole up on the top of a hill, using a huge 1kw burner. Those kind of cretins give cb radio a bad name, over on the ham bands you find a lot of the same, although most now use the Internet and talk via Web link ups. Hence over complicating things just for the sake of it. the Web allows you to speak to strangers all over the world, why connect a 2 way radio to it. lmao
