Hi Daniel, There was also a problem with some of the brass tubing.
When I had one the pipe from the eccentric driven water pump was full of pinholes.

How very sad ... a fabulous looking engine, and Wilesco's Flagship model, but somewhere in middle management or the supply chain, the end customers were seriously let down.
