Does any one know where I might source head gaskets for one of these Meadows 27.5kva generator engines? Any parts at all for the sets? Is there anyone with experience of working on these, would be prepared to give advice?

 

I have no idea about gaskets, but you could try John Walker near Nottingham, he does a lot of autojumbles and specialises in gaskets.

I worked on these years ago and you should be aware there are some head studs that go down into the pushrod chamber so you need to remove the sidecovers to get to them.

It did cause some head scratching when all the upward pointing fastenings were off and the heads still tight! However I removed side covers to reveal the studs you mention before being to rough to try shifting them.

I will try John Walker as you suggest. Thanks.

Would possibly be interested, does anyone know how to raise Glynne? He doesn't seem to look in here often.
