It has always struck me as really odd that a lot of people here claim you have to get a full pressure engine and then they praise the longevity and design and this and that of those old stovebolts. I'm not one to recommend throwing the old engines over the side unless there are good reasons to do so. So maybe all you need to do is fix what you have...it's lasted for 56 years. Isn't that what this site is really all about...preserving that which we so lovingly praise? | | |
