G`day from Stewart in New Zealand, retired diesel mechanic, fairly new to stationary engines but keen to learn. I recently obtained a 1921 Anderson petrol and a Victor diesel. The Victor is a runner and the Anderson is complete so shouldn`t take to much effort to start. What I really want to find info on is a single cylinder Belliss and Morcom paraffin engine a friend of mine unearthed (almost literally) a while ago. There are a few bits missing, surprisingly, but most of the Hi-tech inlet/exhaust system seems to be there, but never having seen one before I don`t know if it`s complete or not. Has anyone got any pictures/ literature/ info on these engines? Only info on the engine is a brass plate with makers and importers  (Turnbull of Wellington) and engine number 114. Thanks for any help Stewart.

Hi Stewart and a very warm welcome to the forum.
Once you get going please start a new thread in New Projects/Restorations to keep us all informed of progress.

I presume you have already found these

Internal Fire Museum has a catalogue for paraffin engines.
