Hello there JonnyB.
My word, you must have the memory of an elephant. Or have you been consulting the records?! Is my old login name still 'alive'? I've changed ISP since last, and i think both me and forum system got a bit confused so i just adapted to a new name.
By the way, that old holed F2 engine has long been passed on for spares, and has been replaced with what i could hold of at the time, which is a F1 engine.
Which is what is probably causing the problem here with the brake lever. I ordered the brake lever at the same time as the ignition points, condenser and backing plate. And i specifically told Mr Silver and Co in the email that it was a F1 engine in a F2 frame. I even gave them the engine and frame numbers.
So i probably have a F1 front brake lever (and maybe F2 points, condenser and backing plate ?!). Have a look at the picture below and if you recognise the lever please let me know.
I like that \"they sent it because they thought I had made a mistake.\"
That's reassuring! I wonder if they think i'm stupid too! What ever happened to \"the customer is always right\"?
Well, i'll wait and see if you know if my suspicions about the above lever are right, and then get in touch with Silver esq.
Cheers
