hossein Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Hey fellows, how can one know whether an engine is single, twin, or even 4 cylinder if it does not have a hint on the shell?

68-f-model Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Most likely a single cylinder. Similar to these other small diesels.http://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/BISON-CHINA-Competitive-Price-8hp-Diesel_60226864582.htmlhttp://czshark.en.alibaba.com/product/288429157-50177828/8HP_Half_Speed_Air_Cooled_Single_Cylinder_Diesel_Engine.html Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/42304-number-of-cylinders/#findComment-308490 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Looks like a single cylinder diesel. One injection line, one cylinder. Two injection lines= two cylinders, etc.I had a Yanmar genset that was electric start with pull start as back up. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................
