  10. I have to run this ignition system now because of the lpg conversion i will post some pics of it later in the week 200 pounds worth of petrol in four week just backing in and out of the workshop i was going l10 cummins bought the engine and everything found out theres two bellhousing size types twin plate and a single plate clutch the turbos in the way of the steering the list goes on but if it isnt broke why fix it
  11. Got an ignition problem with your magneto or your points distributor on your scammell meadows engine, well here is a good fix. After buying my scammell and driving it out of my work the first day of owning it, that night when i came to drive it in, it would not start i tried everything to get it running. In the end it had to be push into work after much thought i worked out that the magneto had packed in and no where to get one at that time so with a bit more thought finaly i worked out that good old britsh layland came to the rescue it now runs on a six cylinder 12v electronic ignition system with not much work
  12. Hi to all out there after reading about my brother's scammell and our youtube moment's and then seeing pics posted of it at the cumbria steam gathering along with his mates (sadly mine did not atend this year and after having that many problems with the old gril) meadows engines do sound great tho.
