Since my last post I have managed to complete the restoration of the 800 gas engine with a new coolant system, ignition setup, exhaust and mounting arrangement.
Enjoy.

  • Is it for sale? if not where do I buy it?

  • Hi, The engine is not for sale at any price I'm afraid. Your best bet is to keep a watch on ebay as they do come up occasionally.

    Cheers

  • Tell me,as this is a gas engine with the third gas valve,why don't you run it on gas ? Thanks for the vid.

  • Hi,

    'Gas engine' is really a generic term that can be attributed to gasoline (USA), petrol, natural gas or propane powered engines. This engine started life running on petrol, so that is how I left it. I have other engines that run on propane, but my preference is always petrol as I find it easier to work with and engines run better (in my opinion). I also think a scale petrol tank looks much better than a big propane cylinder stuck at the side of a running engine.

  • how many hp dose that have

  • Hi,

    The 1930 Stuart Turner catalogue lists this engine as 1/8th HP output. I suspect that running it on modern superior fuels it is a little higher than that.

    Cheers.

see all

  • Great !

  • Yes,I can see your point.I have a 600 with just one inlet,so it has always run on petrol but I like the smell of engines running on gas!
