[SEL] Lister J Question

[Patrick Livingstone]

Hi Kerry,
I will try and find a better pic but this is the best I have found so far of
an early Lister with a piston water pump:

Many have a rotary pump and I have only seen a couple with the piston pump
fitted. I think they used check balls similar to an Austral water pump.
