@angamoos grrr when would the up tight humans that are so single minded stop beening gender discriminating towards machines.... fuk me dead i must be the only fuking person on this planet that also see machines as a He !!!

He's right; the whole area of definition is a bit hard to decipher.
But what I've read or heard from older folks who've worked with both is: A semi-diesel or hot-bulb engine is meant to run on low-grade fuels, and you'll see the occasional "oil" engine of the same design. The term "oil engine", here anyway, stemmed from the semi-diesel oilfield engines that would run on crude oil, filtered but otherwise straight from the ground.

Sounds like there's a bit of gray area on what an oil engine is, and what a semidiesel is then, eh?

when is the best time to visit the museum to hear engines running
ARIELHT500 4 years ago
We run every day Easter until the end of October. Not all of the bigger engines run every day though - depends on the number of visitors.
Our End Of Season Crankup is on the 14th of October, ALL engines will be running along with around 40 visiting engines.

Love the engine when you turned the burner off she seemed to be running like a dream. Is it air start.
P.S. cant5 wait to come to the museum in august

She was hard to bounce start when first run so we put an air valve onto the decompressor port. Now she has run a few times you can bounce her of compression to start.
Sorry for delay in reply, been removing the Crossley-Premier.

Is the huffing sound generated when air is sucked in to the crankhouse?

The dome on top covers a set of reed valves. The noise is air being drawn in through the valves through a a cap around the cap.
