Vickers Carden Loyd Commercial Light Tanks

[George Moore]

Hi to you both, Chris and Hanno,
Yes some great information re the engine, an added bonus was some details of the gearbox.
The main difference with the MkVI series, the fan was driven by a seperate shaft.
The radiators were mounted over the engine, and a bracket held the fan unit, which had a gear-box that was driven by a shaft running along the engine. This transmitted the drive upwards.

The radiator takes up a lot of room in the engine bay, some museums are getting a bit picky, so to be able to photograph the engine in situ, the radiator would need to be swung up out of the way. As it has a limited movement, even then it would be difficult to photograph properly.

Thanks for all the help guys.

George.
