have bought another green oval machine i collect it thursday,as of yet i have no name for it,hopefully diesel,duck and s c ruffy will be friendly to it.s c ruffy will meet it first with duck as the three of us are doing the collection.we didn't think it was right to let it find it's way to us.
as you can gather we refer to the series as it as we haven't met so don't know it's temprement
i will have to take a new signature photo and hopefully daz can correct it like last time when i made a pigs ear of it

Just had my 88 series 3 in the garage for a check over before I set off up LAKES this weekend to do the greenlanes with Other MC members and I found a rear spring hanger bracket was cracked all along one side and starting on the other....Got the welder out quick....its fine now...

Hey Miniman, when you got stuck (sorry delayed) at Whitworth, we only knew where you were cos we could see the aerial bobbing around, is this so we can see you before the aerial :D Just think of the wading possibilities with that!!!

Perkins 4203 are a long stroke diesel engine used in tracktors,large dumpers,forklift trucks,roadside generators, there are all sorts of different applications for them. Have a look on the net. Its on a conversion plate to fit to the gearbox. They are very low reving but very powerfull engines.
-
Got one of them in my truck :lol: , well it's a 4236 (3.8), yes low reving but it will not only pull your house down but next door down too, i have got a high ratio with overdrive gearbox to fit in to help out on the top end as 55mph is thrashing it to death :cry: ,

OK thats cool. I have a question 4 u. Have you broken any half shafts. I have been told that they do and very easy...
-
Hi, havent taken it off road yet but have done about 1500 road mile's & a lot of the time carrying rubble on the back,
dont know what happened to last post but it should read 3.8ltr,
John.
-
Thats cool. Well mine is a 3.3 Liter so may be lass of a chance. My mate down the road has a 4.1 L he claims I think he said 4306 is this correct.
-
I have a feeling our JCB has one of these engines :)
-
I've got a 43 series in my sideloader ... pushed an 18 ton crane onto a low-loader with it yesterday!
-
There ya go. Perkins have a very big range of engines so you may be right. Have you got a pic of the engine in the JCB. Anybody else know what has a perkins engine in like the 4203 or similar.
-
Hey miniman just be careful with those halfshafts i snapped mine with the standard 2.25 diesel.
