An acquaintance of mine has an operating generator powered by a Coventry Climax 4 cylinder air-cooled engine. He uses this as an auxilliary power supply in the event of bushfires. Unfortunately he doesn't possess any manuals for either the engine or generator. Anyone out there who can help?

Bob,
This is a 6kva gen set made for the British Army in the '50's. The generator is mounted above the engine if memory serves me? They were mostly fitted in 1/2 ton trailers with pannier fuel tanks. Remember working on them many years ago until they were replaced by Onan gennies.
Will have a look to see if I have a book, if so will copy it, don,t hold your breath though!
