Petter av1 restoration
Good morning I've started the restoration of my petter av1 I found out a few years ago off him perkins that it was the oldest one known its 600005, the 5th one built at McLaren's in Leeds it had always been a poor starter so I decided it was time for a strip down I found the liner to be glazed I honed it out and lapped the valves, cleaned the years of carbon and old clagged up oil, I had the pump and injector
reconditioned I need to order some new piston rings as 2 of them snapped. the plan for the engine will be to run a line shaft connected to a big lathe at our local tramway group for demonstrations which will be nice to give it a good workout.
