Hi to all

I'm building the boiler and under the 2018 reg. the water gauge and injector cannot come off the same manifold, as anyone split the two.

Cheers

Hi Richard,

You are wrong Bill. As I said there is only one water gauge bush on the backhead and 3 blind nipples for door hinge and lock. The top water gauge, pressure gauge, injector feed and water lifter feed all come off the manifold which has a single passage from boiler.

Bill as I said in the other thread the first 3 allchins that I looked at are all as per the drawing, you are not looking at bushes where the top WG , injector etc fit into but the rear of the manifold which just pokes through teh specticle plate

Bill, I have marked the top curve of the backhead in green. What you see as "boiler bushes" are above the top of teh boiler due to them being the manifold
