This is an old entry, it might help. The diagrams no longer appear though.

The apron I’m keeping! ——— they are from my days in engineering

You’re offering a bargain compared to this wishful thinker ——— makes you wonder doesn’t it!

I’m slowly going through my tools with a view to thinning out. I’ll never use some of them again.
Here’s a few. How does £25 + postage sound?

I don’t know what’s put you off Chris, there’s a lot of interest in your work. If you do decide to stop, fair enough. There must be enough information gathered by now to be released in booklet form, with any future additions taking the form of supplements, if you do decide to carry on. A booklet rel...

They look like nice covers, I agree if the need is not great, good to leave for others, I bought one a few years back and it served me well, not sure if it’s the same make, a lot of covers seem to use similar sounding names.

I didn’t know about that front earthing strap. As expected very neat Phil, like the way you’ve dressed the jubilee clips!

Good luck with the restoration, I bought my pickup when it...

Milk in first?

Thanks for all replies, I would normally clean it up but the position of the master cylinder makes this unrealistic, hence my query about the possible harm.

From what I’ve read that does not ring true, also my experience of 20 or so years of use does not bear that out.
It’s Recommended that the system is clean to start with.

I have a question for any budding chemists here. After removing the plate covering the master cylinder, I noticed the Chassis leg below looked a bit wet. It’s covered in Waxoyl from years ago but it could be the wet appearance is caused by silicone fluid that may have found its way into the leg whil...

Well, I was having a general checking session, and on removing the nearside drum I thought the general area looked a bit damp. I deduced it was from a cylinder, so as good practice I bought a new one for each side. I am now wondering if my deduction was correct because during the renewal process I n...

In that position it makes sense to fit little caps to keep the bleed nipples clear.
