Hello from Hampshire

Hello my name is Jim. I have a Lister D that I am going to get running. I bought it last year and it ran but it has sat around for the last 18 months and it now refuses to fire up. Looks like I am going to have to fiddle and fettle a bit. The plan is to do a top end rebuild, get it running, mount it on a frame and then decide if I want to repaint it. I kind of like the barn find look it has now.

Welcome Jim, a lot of engine buffs are keeping engines in their working clothes now, but I still like to see a good painted one
and have a few myself, what D do you have ? as have 7 at the moment but this is my favourite, any questions just ask as there are plenty on here to help. Regards Richard

Hi Richard,

My D is a 1937 18DH, 1 1/2 HP, RPM 750 (though the 5 seems to be stamped over a 0).
I will be asking questions when I get stuck.  So far I have found what I have needed on the forum.  

Regards

Jim
