Finest engines ever made & most reliable .

[truethought]

The reason I like Gardener engines, is because I am an old mechanic. Simply put, they work properly. There is nothing to dislike.

i remember the 180s and 240s as a kid when going to work with my dad they smoked a lot and made your eyes run when a the wagons started up you could not see them for the diesel fumes good memories .

Everybody loves a Gardner cold start!!

I used to drive buses with Gardner engines and used to work on them sometimes. An old boss of mine had a lovely old Lagonda car, I think it was a 1939. Unfortunately he had fitted a 4 cylinder Gardner engine from a Guy Arab bus. The whole car shook when it was started, his wife wouldn't travel in it. It was cheaper to run with the diesel engine.

I´m a big Detroit Diesel fan but these Gardner´s are really sweet sounding engines.

Fantastic engines. Would love to have a boat powered by one.

Good reliable diesel engines I remember the Leyland fleetline buses as a boy had them in and the atlanteans I think too.

[andypreston]

Great video, lovely Gardner engines it which sound glorious.
PLEASE change the thumbnail picture of a marine Perkins Phaser

[davidellis]

Why show a Perkins Diesel when your talking about Gardner, chalk and cheese comes to mind, worked on both engines and lived two miles from the Gardner factory in Patricroft where they were manufactured, brilliant engine if you weren’t in a hurry but reliability was legendary, the Perkins I ran in a 16tonne tipper, good engine but loved oil if it was fitted with Chrome liners but pulled well.

Im a automotive mechanic in Australia and ive never heard of gardner engines! Thanks for posting.

Thumbnail is a marine Perkins(-Sabre). It's a 6.354, 1006, or 1106; not certain which generation it is. Aka, in its more recent versions, Caterpillar 3056 / C7.1 (Perkins -Sabre is now Cat Marine, selling under both Perkins & Cat brands). Although Gardiner became part of Perkins (via Rolls-Royce), it's not a Gardiner engine.

first 8 wheeler truck i owned 1979 foden gardner 180 i hated it with a passion when i took the truck to the hgv testing center the fitter said before you go in run the rag spanner round the engine he had to explain as wipe the engine for oil leeks as they come as standard on the gardner engine

Refused to develop new designs and move with the times for demand of more power and cleaner combustion both in automotive and marine duty. A great shame really.
