would you settle for a D16, in not so mint condition, but i found it is a rarer one, a multi-color one, like how you can get the D8's. To bad it is sold!!!

It's because Wilesco's are that good that no one wants to sell them.

What you mean business is booming? I don't want one now! I got my Wilesco D22, and when I got that I said I don't want one anymore. I bet my business is healthier than yours anyway

Well, you've had no responses even before you got your D22, which btw is a very nice engine. Do you burn alcohol?? Because if you do, burn ethyl alcohol, not isopropyl, ethyl doesen't leave soot on the boiler. I had the same problem with my D16.

It is the old original meths that leaves the soot.
