Lister Petter AA1

Hi all, Having bought 2x CS 3/1's I thought a change would be good so bought an AA1. It's hopefully for a 7 1/4" gauge loco and I didnt think about speed ranges. The AA1 is fixed speed but having seen a vari speed on on ebay I thought easy, just madify mine to varo speed. I have worked out how to do it but a scanned manual page I've got says the vari speed engine has a different fuel pump. My pump is a Lucas Bryce - FAOARO55E0613 GB02776 Injector is - FB NSDOAO48D0507 (as far as I can tell) Anyone have any pointers on changing it to vari speed, and are the pump & injector right, I cant find the info on Peters site (it'll be there somewhere, I just cant find it!).

The variable-speed pump is part no FAOAR055B0488.

The injector number you quoted is for an AC1.

The AA1 injector is NSDOAO35D0368, that is for ALL models of the AA1.

Thanks Peter, Is the wrong pump & injector going to effect it? I suppose the overfueling ac1 injector isnt going to be taken back a bit by the governor. I cant get my head around needing a different pump for vari speed, was an engine when sold spec'd for a certain speed range? I dont know if the speed adjuster will do the full 1500 - 3600, if the engine was set to 1500 or 3600 it would still have the same pump & injector, only difference I can find on manual is that the timing needs altering with shims onder the pump. I might have to find a vari speed engine if this one isnt going to be happy doing what I need! Its in such good order otherwise, its a shame to get rid. cheers, Simon ps, anyone elses email delivery stopped?
