Provided I have done up the cap firmly. I've never had water leak out. Maybe that is because water has quite a high surface tension but the surface tension of fuel is much lower & able to seep through?

Sounds as if it will be in good company.

Here are some prices from the 1941 VAOS.

Yes Neil they are still here & compliment the other half of the Hurst collection of the later catalogues. For several years I have been periodically sending them to Geoff Fletcher who is not only scanning them but feeding the scans to an OCR to construct a database. This will be a formidable resource, there are only a few of the early ones that have yet to be traced. Although this may ultimately effect the value of these catalogues it will never match up to experience of savouring the detail of the real document, the smell of musty paper, the well thumbed page, the rusting paper clip, the annotations scribbled in the margins be it the price reached, the max bid, the good/bad comments about a vehicle. I am lucky as I have a few auctioneer's catalogues which are doubled sized with extra pages to record the sale price achieved & minimum bid which apparently was based on prices realised from previous sales.

Early days yet Wally, I have seen them go for over £100. So you are richer than you first thought!

Circuit diagrams would be in the Technical Description in EMER TRACKED VEHICLES C 402 for Scorpion & C 502 for other CVR(T) series

Ok thanks Andy well that's saved wanting to look for one.

It is here Andy https://hmvf.co.uk/topic/42944-ebay-1970-foden-pyrene-bodied-royal-ulster-constabulary-water-cannonriot-control-vehicle/?tab=comments#comment-474455 Too big for me, but I would have liked one of the Commers

What modes does it do Andy? Just FM or CW & USB?

Andy yes there is already a thread on this not actually an RUC vehicle sale.

Andy perhaps that service manual is a Level 1 publication rather than a Level 3 or 4 perhaps?

Thanks Wally, that's disappointing to hear.

Wally would this not have passed onto the NAM or was it privately owned?

In the index I have (2003) there are 3 Installation Instructions issued for Spartan in TRACKED VEHICLES EMER C 505, so something might be in there.

Lance you mention FV682771 but your picture shows FV692771, so one is a typo. With respect are you certain of the other numbers? It is just that I have a large database of stores items but can't find either. I have a MVEE book of Spartan stowage diagrams but unfortunately no LAW just Carl Gustav.

Z1 Wireless stores TSE(W)8 Test Set Equipment (Wireless) Set No.8 ?? DD Australian I think

I seem to have these but it is a question of finding them! AC No.22214 User Handbook. Recovery Vehicle, Wheeled, Medium, 6x6 AEC Mk 3.

Dec.1954 I assume that is just automotive only as there is a separate parts list for the GS body

Martin sounds like a good machine, far better than what I have to do is put it in a viewer then take a photo.

Martin I assume you realise that these are FAESPs ie on fiche? If that's not a problem I will check what I have but there are about 30 I think & would sell them so PM me if you want consider that.

I have I think most of the FAESP 2320-N-501 octad series 522 523 532 533 601 711 811 821 I might consider selling them if you get stuck.

Was that any help for your article?

The installation of 24V AC generator and conversion to FFW role to 1/4 Ton Rover Mk 3 and 5 was covered in EMER WHEELED VEHICLES Mod Instr No.11 The EMER was only issued in draft form to the few workshops carrying out the modification, which is why a formal publication of the EMER was not incorporated for reference in the normal EMER series. All that will be found is notification to this effect in lieu of Mod Instr No.11. That EMER was never intended to be retrospectively available, which is why it is not listed in the Associated Publications section of the User Handbook WO Code No.18402 superseded by No.18412 issued April 1961. This UHB gives a technical description & instructions to be read as a supplement to the normal UHB WO Code No.17856 Below are some DEME Liaison Letters which give an idea of the time scale.
