Hi David
Many thanks for this. The leather washers are in good nick (after 93 years !!) and I have soaked them in oil to keep them supple. There is indeed a click at the end of each stroke but I didn't know about checking for the puff of air - I'll do this tomorrow.
Thanks too for the contact details of the repair guy - definitely my next port of call if I can't fix it soon.
Thanks again
Roger
