One is for waste oil etc the 5 gallon one.
One for Petrol 1 gallon - it's over 40 yrs old.
One for Diesel 2 gallons.

That petrol is probably knackered by now Ted I'm sure the stuff has a shorter shelf life than that ;);D

It's what I use for cleaning engine parts - SUL no expense spared!

I've gone back a bit having stripped down the front forks to sort out a stripped thread on the left leg where the top calliper arm is fitted.
As a result I have found that the fork seal that are 35 x 48 x 11 has moved up on one side towards the circlip - there is what seems a big gap as though there ought to be a spacer between the seal & the circlip. When I fitted the seals they were flush at the bottom what's going on here?

Wonder if it’s bad fitting Ted? Cant see that it would shift touching against stanchion. Assuming they are correct seals for the job.
Maybe an attempt to get worn seals to seal?
