Four cylinder supercharged two stroke vertical diesel.

This engine is held in store at the moment but we hope that it will eventually be used to restore the second engine in the Knocker White tug currently at The Museum of London. Fitted with two SS4 Petter engines, probably the only remaining installation of its type.

Because of the general state, covered in builder rubble etc the engine was cleaned and painted. A frame was built and using components from a beyond repair twin cylinder the engine was built up into a displayable condition. Minor work still needed to fuel system and governor rods.
