Petter S 1925-26

The latest addition to the collection is this Petter S type semi diesel 5hp, It was purchased from a collector in the East Anglia, The engine had been restored many years ago when a new liner was fitted, Before this it is obvious that the engine had been rebuilt some time at Petters due to the latter style twin oil point type block, This particular model is fitted with the Madison Kipp type oilier which was only used for a couple of years before the more traditional Calibrator came into use, We hope to build a replica trolley and re-paint the engine to bring it back to life.
