"About the size of a sheepdog" - that's a new one on me when it comes to describing machinery smiley

If I'm oiling the works via the lubricator then I wouldn't add any oil to the air.

Thanks,

Pete

I seem to have been way off. The tank is only 25L now I can look at mine. It doesn't say the cfm though.

I would class your little dog as a paint sprayer size only. face 23

peter,

the 'donation to club funds' would amount to a fee for the club boiler inspector/club for the test,

plus the test would be of no use as if not a member a certificate cant be issued.

the donation route is fraught with problems. it compromises the integrity of the boiler inspector (would you make the donation if the boiler was failed?)

there are certain of the Winsons boilers which are regarded as suspect and will usually receive very close scrutiny on an initial club test. there are quite a few horror stories of defective foundation rings etc.

cheers,

julian

Sure, I realise it can't be done under the current system, and I'm not trying to change things myself. But maybe the current system ("become a full club member or sod off" ) isn't the only one there ever could be.
