Great machine in great condition
Can you get an image for the manometer?
My experience it that few work or work correctly so if new or replacement not available slipping in a paper image would make the unit look complete.
Have a Ernst Plank missing the dial and that's been one thought since it seems inpossible to find replacement.  _________________ While you're resting |

Thank you Al I'll do my best to get a picture. It'll be a while before i see the engine due to work commitments, i.e. I'm back at sea. |
