Bryan will be right indeed I’ve just used the AF on it so far must have just been lucky! Either that or maybe just the rusted down sizes? Thanks very much for the offer of tools Ian! Yes that bucket of rubbish is just out of the crank / con rod tunnel.

After a bit of more serious checking, and making a rare appearance, my whitworth spanner’s are out. Seems to fit most I’ve checked so far. Thanks Bryan.

For anybody that is interested. I fully intended to leave this old lump till winter but because the weather has been quite crap recently I just can’t walk past this thing without doing something. She is fully stripped down with cam and exhaust valve rocker and governor mech taking a bath in a bucket of diesel. Haven’t found anything drastic as yet.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Great photos - they used to build things to last when that was made. 👍👍👍

Johnny4428:
For sure Ted! This one is approaching 100 year old.
