Lister Petter Diesel Engine Identification Lister Petter Diesel Engines Identification Images shown below are by no means a definitive guide as to the identification of Listerdiesel engines, but show general ranges in certain specifications. Almost all Lister and Lister-Petterengines were produced in numerous guises and specifications, with differing engine rotations, power take offs and ancillaries, all of which can lead to different appearances of the same engine model. It must also be remembered that many Lister and Lister-Petter diesel engines look very similar but only for a few small distinguishing external features, so the images below should be taken as no more than a rough guide.Only some models are illustrated.

Hi all, The following may be useful for roughly dating your A or B type and also types H,J,K,L,M,N,P,Q and R. Unfortunately the list cannot be treated as 100% accurate because a duplicate set of 'engine build day books' provide conflicting information as shown by the numbers in brackets. However, as a general guide the list should be helpful, and reasonably accurate form 1928 onwards. Please note these are build dates and not dates of sale. (These dates were given to me by another enthusiast. I believe they are courtesy of David Edgington) 1923 34557 (34561) - 38037 (38052) 1924 38053 (38075) - 44843 (44847) 1925 44844 (44848) - 53072 (53299) 1926 53073 (53300) - 61233 (61578) 1927 61234 (61579) - 69596 (69627) 1928 69628 - 78096 - 2 208768 - 2 216464 - 2 220614 - 2 222841 - 2 225968 - 2 229736 - 2 233648 - 2 237994 - 2 242483 - 2 245465 - 2 248821 - 2 252370 - 2 254678 - 2 256490 - 2 257976 - 2 258736 - 2 260796 - 2 262275 - 2 263721 - 2 268063 - 2 272800 - 274579 (May 1950) 1951 275829 - 2 278881 - 279284 So there you have it.

I've probably gone and spoilt all your fun Best wishes, jayvee ---------- Post added at 09:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 PM ---------- Hi all, So what happened after 1952?? Lister changed their numbering system (again) by introducing a very simple method with which to date any post 1952 A or B engine. Every January, until production ceased, engine serial numbers commenced with number 1, while the Spec number determined the year the engine was built. So A2 was built in 1952, A3 = 1953, B4 = 1954, A5 = 1955, etc. Simple really. Just remember that a short serial number means a post 1952 engine. A2/B2 = 1952 A3/B3 = 1953 A4/B4 = 1954 A5/B5 = 1955 A6/B6 = 1956 A7/B7 = 1957 A8/B8 = 1958 A9/B9 = 1959 A10/B10 = 1960 A11/B11 = 1961 A12/B12 = 1962 Hoping this info also helps Best wishes, jayvee.

Hi Just been given a 3hp lister petrol engine, at the moment it is buried deep into the back of a shed. The only info I could get of it given the poor light is HP 3, RPM 450, Engine # 26988 Type was hard to see I think 51B or 51D. Ine ccie security. The top of the cylinder head has two oval plates, the one on the right has the spark plug in it and the one on left is blank, looks to be a valve inspection covers.

The engine is tank cooled and the fuel tank what's left of it mounted on the wooden base, below the carby. Any info on this engine would be much appreciated.
