BM 1051

Finally got my hands on another 1051,a stationary model(fix 1500rpm). I´ll look for new springs for the regulator and i will move all the marine parts over to this engine as its in pretty good shape. Still no wet exthaust but i will build a manifold just to get it going. A link to my videos at the tube:my crazy videos Also two videos of my old boat at its first run since the late seventies.... What is the name of a boat that tows timber at small rivers and lakes in english? Cheers Christian

Mmmm..lovley engines. I like the "sleepboot" in the end. Christian

Hello, New to the site and looking for parts.... Something about my self: Working at Volvo Penta development in Gothenburg as a machinist/welder. Hobbies is ofcourse boating,old stuff,old engines no matter if they are in boat or anything else as long as they are loud and smells its alright. I also have some old pump lanterns(Tilly,primus,optimus,radius and colemans),nice lamps . I have had an old tugboat built 1906 with a Seffle 340hp hotbulb(BIG engine). I recently ran in to an old BM 1051 or as you say Bolinders 1051 but its missing the cylinder head,can anyone point me in a direction were to find one? In sweden they are rare as hens teeth........they have all rusted out. As im at Penta i migth be helpfull with old workshop manuals for Bolinders and old penta,i can do scan of old workshop manuals if needed. Have a nice day Christian
