Hi there,
It's a bit of a long shot, but I am looking for a cylinder, piston and gaskets for a Stuart Turner P5 engine. The water cooling system on my marine engine is clogged up with some kind of hard deposit which cannot be moved/cleaned in any way. I recently purchased a Stuart Turner P5 stationary engine in the hope that I could use it for spares, but later found out that the cooling system is not compatitble. Does anyone have any of these parts I am looking for and if not would someone be kind enough to point me in the right direction so that I could get hold of these parts.
Thanks in anticipation

Hi Ben, concerning the non-compatability, is the replacement P5 of the 4 bolt head variety, or is it a crankcase variation?.
I may have some spares for the 6 bolt head variety.

I stock most gaskets for the P5 and R3M. Also lots of restored parts. Correct green paint is also available in 500ml tins.

Hello
Don't give up on the cylinder just yet. There's a very useful article on this site regarding corrosion and cast iron engines. If you have the inclination to DIY this could save you some expense.

I'm in the process of restoring a R3MC that has saltwater corrosion. The article describes several methods of neutralising the problem.

I hope you are someway to solving the problem of spares. If you decide to go down the replacement path I'd appreciate first refusal of the parts. I have two P5Ms that I'll be tackling in a few months time. I believe both were used as auxilliaries and both came from near the sea, so I am expecting them to require the water porting being ungunged. I wouldn't mind your redundant parts to practice on.
Send me an email and indicate a price.
