A couple more Multimot accessories, new never used but unfortunately the post hole borer is missing the auger and the scarifier or dethatcher is missing the handle.
Thanks. Yes I seen that brown colour! A classic 70s colour and thus very retro! Post up a photo of your DAF 44 as well to keep mine company.
Are you on the DAF Owners Forum? If not I highly recommend it.
Yes I'm on the Daf Forum, there's a couple of Facebook groups as well, I will try and get a picture on but I had a lot of trouble trying to upload pictures last time I tried and gave up
Thought I would have a look at an old Clinton engine I have in the shed, it's a B1290 petrol paraffin but unfortunately missing the carb, after closer inspection I think it is a new old stock engine. On the cowling is a decal with Trojan Works, Purley Way. As the little tractors that Trojan made in the 60's were either red or blue does anyone know what this could have been fitted to as it is yellow.
Hi, no I have not seen a tap like that before but a seal kit for the normal tap may fit, you have tried stripping it down and cleaning it out have you ?
Right, I have just familiarised myself with what you're looking for. I believe you mean the Hand grip that fits into the end of the Bar. Visible brass If it is a Mk1, If a Mk2 then the brass was covered in black celuloid.
If you can post a good image and accurate dimensions and fixing method, I may be able to help........... if you need any.
Thanks Anglo, I haven't started restoring it yet but if i struggle to find the part I need I will be in touch, thanks again for the offer of help.
Hi, not sure if I'm supposed to re post like this but still looking for a left hand brass handlebar end for an Allen Scythe please, if anyone can help.
Not sure of the validity of this but we were warned not to pre fill with water hotter than the machine's max temp as apparently filling with just boiled water can damage the bonding between the "vibrating thingys" and the bottom of the tank.
Perhaps worth bearing in mind.
Thanks, I will have to be more patient and perhaps read the instructions more thoroughly.
Something to think about before you buy one, I use mine mainly for cleaning a single carb but even though they have a built in heater it is a bit slow so I fill mine from the kettle, trouble is it needs 3 kettles full to cover the carb, not a big problem but frustrating when you just want to get it set up, so a smaller one would have probably suited me better, except when I put my bike carbs in it, not big enough for a bank of 4 carbs and you don't really want to be separating them. So ideally I need a smaller one and a bigger one but that's not going to happen. I still haven't tried carb cleaner, I just use washing up liquid.
