OIL-ENGINE conversions for vans of up to 2-ton capacity, using the Standard 2.26-litre engine, are offered by R. H. Kilner (ME), Ltd., Woodhead Road, Honley, near Huddersfield. The first production conversion assembly has been fitted to a Seddon 30-cwt. van, normally powered by a Perkins P3 oil engine. It is, however, assumed that the main market for conversions will be for petrol-engined vehicles.
The four-cylindered indirect-injection engine employs a C.A.V. distributor-type injection pump. It produces either 51 b.h.p. at 3,000 r.p.m. or 54 b.h.p. at 3,500 r.p.m. These are both gross figures and Kilner will normally use the higher-rated version. For the conversion the engine is fitted with a flywheel and clutch housing of Kilner design.
A David Brown 430C gearbox is used and this can be fitted with an output flange for either Hardy Spicer or Layrub couplings. The clutch is 10 in. in diameter.
The gearbox bell-housing and the flywheel housing are designed to fulfil S.A.E. No. 4 standards, as are the vertical bearer faces at the flywheel housing sides, so that they will mate up with other transmissions manufactured to this specification. The aluminium flywheel housing incorporates a Kilner flange that permits the withdrawal of the flywheel for maintenance, without need for movement of the housing or its mountings. In order to meet the requirements of installation in various chassis, the mounting arrangements for the engine can bemodified.
Whilst no definite figure has been fixed, the price appears likely to be in the vicinity of £270, the unit being offered complete with air cleaner, fuel and oil filters, cold-starting aid and electrical equipment including regulator.
