I very fine engine there Sir.
You will obtain a longer run with the original two wick burner.
Your burner is for the MM1 there  _________________ Chuff chuff!! |

Nicely done.
Had rotten rubber on the SV of both of mine. I just went to an auto parts store and bought a selection of the smallest o-rings they had. You've got to stretch the smallest one possible over the top of the SV, otherwise they tend to get one side blown out by the pressure and leak. _________________
