'46 SE1Received my '46 SE1 this morning (very quick delivery from the seller). All looks good, but I have a couple of questions:
1) I assume that that isn't the original safety valve....does anyone know what would be the correct one
2) Same question for the burner?
3) Lastly, the pulley is missing - again, anyone know where I might find one?
I'm very happy with this one - healthy compression, so I'm sure it'll run well. For some reason the base has been painted metallic red, so I'll have little hesitation in repainting this engine.
Cheers in advance for your help!

The burner is certainly suspect, shouldn't it be a single or double wick burner! 
If you can get an idea of sizes I can turn you a pulley no probs. I'm sure someone must have one on their SE1, a pic would help.
Good luck with the restoration.

Safety valve is a replacement, ask MF, I believe he was making replacements.
Yes it should have a dark green 2 wick burner.
Ask Dauntless who makes those pullys 
Sorted guvna Its a cracking little engine!
