Hi Julian.

Do I detect some sympathy? I certainly appreciate that your costings have to make due allowance for tranquilisers with the lunchtime sandwiches and probably the occasional rest cure in a peaceful sanitorium halfway up an Alp.

As to the joint - well yes and no. No external leaks but excess oil coming from the gap between the union thingy and the internal wall of the gallery. But she started and ran nicely (yes, I did change the fuel) but then I noticed that the oil pressure was off the clock so shut down hurriedly to think about it. Sticking relief valve? Anyway, time for a stiff drink.

All the best,

John
