Re: [biofuel] Need info on Perkins D3152 Engine
Kirk and Juan to the rescue. There we have it. Thank you. French - cheval vapeur (horse steam) Spanish - Caballo Vapor (horse steam) Now we know what the CV means in g/cvh (grams per metric horsepower hour) As Kirk pointed out: metric horsepower, a unit of power, defined to be the power required to raise a mass of 75 kilograms at a velocity of 1 meter per second. This is approximately 735.499 watts or 0.9873 horsepower. The unit is also known by its French name cheval vapeur or its German name pferdestrke (horsepower).

Re: [biofuel] Need info on Perkins D3152 Engine
i know all about that perkins engine, it is a 3 cylinder 152 cid . they were made in england, and were mainly used in massey ferguson tractors. they are very easy on fuel easy to repair and are one the cheapest engine to overhaul. they also start good and these motors stay together. they have a very long stroke, it should run ok on svo, they are a tough engine Christopher Witmer wrote: Anyone familiar with the Perkins D3152 engine?
