Running the 1912 blast injection Diesel engine at Internal Fire in Wales. One of the oldest working Diesel engines in the world, built to Dr Rudolph Diesel's original design.
This Ruston was recovered from Lawrenny Yacht Station last year and was in an appalling state! She ran properly for the first time today. Bit low on compression with a couple of valves needing work so this is a bit smokey.
Still having problems with the fuel system - one injector is stuck open in this clip and allowing air back into the distributor.
The weather has been so bad for the last few months she has had to stay sheeted up so not a lot has been done to her, getting there!
