No one has mentioned it, but I think the engine is a S50(I suppose everyone knows that). Ian S C I didn't! "These are 3 fold copper washers for steam fittings to help seal the joint":-**LINK** Ian Thanks for the link , I will get a few to replace the bad ones. Is there anythng in particular to be careful of when stripping the engine for cleaning? Timing etc? Should I make marks for correct re-assembly? Martin |
