Re: oil feed to crankshaft

Re: Girder Forks Repair

Thanks for both replies I think it will be the south east coast for me I will let the forum know how I get on, Its a bit sad that there is only two people in England who can repair girders perhaps we might have to send them to India to get them repaired in years to come, Regards Clive.
