The Lister's exhaust, has a particularly crisp note. The camera doesn't do it justice.

Nice, lister D's are my favourite engine, especially one with good compression on slow tick over, though from what I've read this just knackered your plug, as it gets gunked up with carbon deposited.

Jon I would love to have one in my shed but you never hear about any for sale in the Bishop Auckland area and of course transport is a problem as I don’t drive.

Very nice Dan!

Need to get them out again and give them a run they have been a bit neglected in the garage

I've found they're not as easy to dig out for quick runs, especially the longer they sit in the garage getting buried away...  ;)
