23.01.2022 FIX-IT FRIDAY 27/11 .... Rosebery Works 'Engine' K model. Post Lockdown engine startup; This engine hasn't been started for a good twelve months or so.

22.01.2022 Last start, the National; We were having starting problems with this one of gumming on the skirt of the piston; Solution, work to bottom of stroke, clean gum off exposed bottom of piston, some lubrication, then work back to starting position. Worked like a charm, well satisfied with Today's effort. The big-end-crank cowl was taken off for this exercise.
