Then enjoyed showing Forum member GK5268 what I had achieved by way of tidying up before we went for a short drive, or attempt, kept stopping but managed to get back in short bursts. Then enjoyed driving his Ruby, bit different than the RN!! I should have taken out the carb needle and cleaned it earlier, full of crud. Runs OK now. Made the decision to buy Tapox and Fertan to deal with the crud in the tank. If I could find a Ewarts main & Reserve petrol tap it would help. Tried to buy a banjo filter gauze, but can't find one. Doesn't appear on the Burlen parts list. Hey ho. Need to replace the fabric joint and carden boot next. Time for second half of footie.Thanks to GK5268 he found a gauze filter for me on ebay. Ordered.
