Alexander ◊ 2008-04-09 02:04	This is also a Commer QX R-Series Mk.I (1948-51) and therefore too old for the TS3 engine. The Mk.III first received the two-stroke three cylinder engine in 1954 and the series was renamed C-Series. The TS3 engine is actually very smooth, the high pitched noise for which they were known was rather due to a less effective Burgess silencer and the Roots blower. http://www.oldengine.org/members/diesel/Technical/TS3.htm The engine came as a 3261cc (199ci) and 3523cc (215ci).
