WIN THIS ENGINE AT THE WESSEX MIDSUMMER VINTAGE SHOW

Petter AVB1 LAB

The Petter AVB1 LAB was the last of a number of models specifically designed by Petter for use in fuel and oil research, so it bears only a passing resemblance to other Petters of its time. It was built to withstand extreme use using parts from other models and parts specially designed for the purpose. It was frequently used with a supercharger when high power outputs at relatively high RPM were obtained. (Around 17 bhp at 2000 RPM, but figures up to 28 bhp have been quoted))

The example being offered as a prize dates from around 1968, and although some work will be required it is thought to be in running order. Some of the sensors are still in place but the pipework was designed for static use, "plumbed in" to the building in which it was housed, so a silencer etc. will be required. A manual is included!

It was kindly donated to the club by Mr David Gee
