Continuing with OS, hereare a couple for shots of an OS 15 FP. Has been used on a model but not much run time.
Love those FP series, not much to go wrong and very dependable.

As you would notice the engine is a rear exhaust for easy fitting of the tuned pipe. Got to search for the pipe and post some pictures.
As you would notice, the pump is inbuilt in the backplate, closeup shows in let and outlet

Time to post yet another one.
This time from China, and bought from Indian Hobbies, an ASP 91 4T, well used and in need of some valve adjustments now. In order to fit the engine inside the cowl, a turbo mufller was used instead of the supplied one as it was slightly longer. You would also notice that the choke assembly was removed as there are alternate ways to choke the engine for starting and I could worry less about anotherpart not working

Some shots of the turbo muffler and how it goes on the engine. Due to its desgin, there are multiple possibilities to orient the muffler as per need

flyingboxcar

Brother, the chinese 06 would be the cheapest of all the engines which I have posted till now. The cost could be around 3-4K Indian landed here in India. But could I ask why do you ask this question??

Time to update one more engine. Guess it's been long since a new engine was posted.
This time it's a vintage Ross 60 opposed twin glow. The engine is new unrun but no box or accessories the engine used to come with (the engine used to be accompanied with a pair of exhaust stacks and a purpose made aluminum engine mount). Still looking for th original items.  
1. Top view (you can see Ross name clearly)
2. Front view
3. Underside from rear also showing the twin exhaust stacks
4. Again underside view showing 10 cc (.60 cuin)

Difficult to beleive that more than a month has elapsed since last post on the thread.
This time I would change the way I would post. I am posting a few pictures of diesel engine. Let readers identify what diesel is this and what is the swept volume (i.e. how many cc's).
I am sure it would garner more interest than the old method of psoting
So here you go. Please identify this diesel and it's displacement

While you all are trying to figure out the previous one, here is an old Thunder Tiger 20, Glow.
The engine is well worn out. And the piston has baffle (this was old tech to ensure that the fresh draft of fuel charge does not mix with the exhausting gases. If you were to open the engine you would find that the piston crown is stepped and not flat (or domed) like todays engines.
Even the needle bar was worked upon locally.
The engie was acquired second hand (read cheap) while I was begining to get into glows

All right, that is indeed a PAW, but not 2.5 cc.
That is a 19 size or roughly 3.2 cc, TBR RC

So here is aother diesel, but this time a puccka desi brand.
From the stables of Sharma Models, a SP diesel of 2.5cc displacement
I have one question to Mr Vivek. What is the mark under the shaft, which looks like filled and filed metal?
I have seen this on several SP engine

You can also see the serial number of the engine as assigned at the factory 04/02 i.e 4th in 2002.

If you can compare this with the earlier PAW, can you see the similarities?

As probably could be made out, the SP 2.5 is used. Here are some pictures.
And one of the needle valve, see how sharp and tapered the needle is, which when coupled with fine pitch on the sleeve gives much better fuel metering possibilities, comapred to short stubbier needles you see on most modern glow engines today

I am sure some of you might be wondering if the propellor shaft on the SP engine is damaged?
No it is not, unlike to what is common on most engines today, this engine has the crankshaft, drilled and tapped for a bolt. The shaft ends flush with the propellor driver.
For attaching the propellor, you simply bolt the prop in the drilled and tapped shaft.
This method was pretty common in olden days and even now with smaller capacity engines

Since we are talking diesel
How about a  Russian ??
To start with here is a well used and now long in tooth MK 12, BB rear induction, disk valve induction diesel  
The story behind acquring this engine is also interesting. This engine was purchased by a gent in Russia. The Gent was my father's friend, and while one day my dad must have been lamenting to him how I did not study and devoted far too much time on aeromodelling, the friend informed that he too had an engine with him, which he did not know how to deal with. A few days later, some how this information slipped past dad to me.
And I was at the Gent's door. When he finally gave me the engine, I was a bit disappointed. Even from the outside, I could see that the piston had rust, the engine was stuck etc...
But neverthless, dismantled everything, gave it a good cleaning and assembled back. Thereafter the engine has give super servie and wore out two school marms. Still run's but once the heat is up the compression goes down.
You would also notice that the NV is missing on the engine, the original was pulled off and thrown in junk box as it was no good. A Sharma needle valve assembly fitted and worked perfect, the NV was also removed and put back in to the SP engine it was borrowed from.      
The engine when came in my hand, had the box, instructions, tools and even a short piece of fuel pipe. While the box withered away, the tool and the instructions must be hidden somewhere in all my stuff

Here is a well used (actually second set of cylinder/piston and contra) AM 2.5 cc diesel.

While I have been posting engines which are either awaiting to be installed on a model or have seen service, how about something currently being flown?

nice collection, i really like the Irvine 0.75 cc and 1.3cc diesel mills reminding me of my COX Sure Starts (although both can't be compared). Hey what happened to your Inline-Twin the one with wrong muffler  8-)
