    A Thunderbolt? That coming at you would definitley make you look up! :-D As it was a ground attack aircaraft it would fit well in the scenario. Or go spectacular and have a dogfight in the back ground.

    early trials of Goretex?

    Not Jack's satorial elegance ? Is that a flap on the back of the shirt covering a blood chit.

    Are they O rings or Olives ? The Disco uses olives to join the flexi pipe to the solid end of the pump.

    Could be the Sir Winston Churchill or the Malcom Miller . Both operated in the 1960's. Beutiful ships. Scrap that!! More likley T.S. Royalist the Sea Cadet traing ship. She came into service 1971/72.

    Yes but unfortunatley, no sponsors can be found so there will no major event. I intend to go over as an individual though.

    Yes and when you change the end fittings. Make sure you put the pipes on the pumps the right way round! Just been head banging for an hour after changing the lift pump on my Disco. Came to the conclusion after an hour, it'll start, eventually, but revs won't pick up. So new pump must be faulty , refit old. At that point the eyes were roving over the fuel lines. Something niggled. Thought (HAH!) lets just change pipes over on the new pump..... :red:

    Right! So we know you have the Advance Acute Green Disiease then. :nut:

    Is that why the dome on the Penthouse of the Club house has been expanded? Or had you blagged a job as a waiter?:-D

    Ah! Monsieur, if you cannot park you cannot come into the town and spend money with us! Nice refreshing sensible attitude! Support local trade.

    K Seal does seem to be the one of choice, there are slightly more complicated to use system that line the whole waterway with a Ceramic. Might be worth considering that for long term use.

    Another trick, take off the fuel cap and wrap an airline in rag which you then stuff into the filler and pressure the tank, doesn't need to be much but garuntees fuel gets through. An odd thought, there isn't a paticular set of steps for bleeding is there? Some engines need say 5 pushes of the throttle then turn over and push pedal 5 more times. May be worth giving a local dealer a ring. (Or the bodge way, get a lot of cans of Easy start and just keep squirting and swearing) This method is TOTALLY banned to our Bus Engineers, so they use brake claener sprays.

    Once the injectors are loose and fuel is spurting, whilst the engine is still turning over, then tighten up the injector. That should get it to fire I had an old engine that would only start by towing after bleeding, only a few feet but from then on no problem.

    As Don says , depends why they are weeping. Considering the work you've done and a rad that was obviously well past sell by date. Change the lot, then add a sealer.

    Welcome, what project? Silly Boy! A Dodge of course! :-D

    De natured Alchaol , or Methelayted Spirtit on UK is indeed used as the primer for Tilly or Bialladin lamps and Parrafin , (Kerosene) stoves. It burns easily and heats the jets to vaporise the Parrafin before it is ignited. It can also be used as a fuel in its own right for unpressurised cookers and such items as Surgical Sterilising equipment. Is he selling?
