Reply To: Ransomes engine carb improvement

Ransomes used Sturmey engines quite alot , the MG2 crawlers for example.Piston material…..well I think you’re trying to get too technical , remember many engines we play about with originally had cast iron pistons , but replacements such as hepolite etc. etc. went over to alloy , with no modification to any components. Just one of many examples is the Villiers 25C , originally cast iron , but replacements available in alloy with none of the issues you mention.
