That engine looks to me like a petrol engine(with distributor and ignition coil). Last edited by G-CPTN; 27th July 2011 at 00:17.

There would always be an option, in fact petrol might have been 'standard' until diesel became popular.
What puzzles me is the photographs seem to show a mid-engined bus chassis - I'm not familiar with Commer bus chassis, but this suggests that the Avenger was an underfloor design:- http://www.mediastorehouse.com/comme...t/4001747.html (read the text on the illustration)

I think the above pdf might be for a MkI Avenger - it seems to be front-engined. http://www.commer.org.nz/Commer_Conn...enger_Bus.html
