Just a quick update this one.
As the title says rain has had an impact on progress however work has happened, just a delay in writing it up.
Keith has cleaned and primed the two discharge pipes and they look better without the amount of oil and dirt that had accumulated. These will be undercoated, along with the all the brake gear and other pipe work which is sitting in primer.
Meanwhile a rather difficult job has just been started. The valve and casing were covered in years of dirt and when the valve was turned, yet more oil came out. This was cleaned up, then all the dirt was scrapped off, then the whole item was hosed down then cleaned back with a grinder/brush and to finish it off, primed. This took a whole day to complete, which is rather surprising meaning I thought it would at least take two days to fully clean. It now too awaits its turn for undercoating.
Next update will have pictures all being well.
