Hi, I wonder if someone could help me.
I have a USHM2 engine and box that's been dry stored. the engine number is 11956.
its a thermo-syphon non external oil filter model.
doe anyone have a chart of engine number year of manufacture?
Many thanks and kind regards.

Does the engine have an oil filter?
The engine numbers are usually fairly close to the chassis numbers so I would guess at 1949

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your prompt response, the oil filter is internal within the ally sump, there's no external (spin on) filter as such.
regards.
Bob.

Later USHM2 and USHM3 engines had an external M1000 type filter. There s no filter as such in the early engines, just a gauze around the pick up
