@mrfirewolf VM diesels are quite good and have powered my Rovers for many years (no pesky timing belts to snap on these!) In some applications they were not 100% (Range Rover for example) but this was IMHO due to bad plumbing, undersized radiator, a crappy viscous coupled fan and no separate oil cooler.

Listeroid, never heard of one. Thought it was listerine for hemoroids.

@mrfirewolf Tell me about it.. I had a small generator that lasted for about 6 months. I only used it moderately for power tools and never stressed it out.. It just gave up. Most stuff is not built to last anymore. I hear these listeroids are good if a few simple things are done like making sure all the casting sand is completely cleared from the internals.

fuel consumption... roughly about 9.8345623 years a gallon... give or take a few minutes lol.... have to love the old listers very dependable and cheap to run... kinda sucks that nothing like that will ever be made.. todays engines aint worth a shit.

Nice - not sure I would want to run my old CS at 300 r/m though - not sure the con rod dipper will do its job turning so slow -400 maybe - what do you recon - could it be an issue?

@trevortrevortsr2 I set this engine up as an experiment for using alternative fuel. The question of rpm came up so I started running it slower. I now have almost 1,000 hours at slow speed. No sign of problems so far.
I do question the cooling of my automotive alternator at this slow of a speed though, but I only set the charge at 30 amps and watch it closely.

Mr. Bodell,
Did you have to make modifications to the timing to keep the engine running at 300 rpm.?
Forgive me I'm new to these engines.
Every reduction of RPM by 50% increases engine life ~400%.
Thanks
