Hi everybody, I sorted the over revving. I took a look at the governing diaphragm and as soon as I popped off the diaphragm cap I could see the thin rubber on the edge wasn't sitting properly on one side and was sagging into the body instead. I started it up and no more over revving. Ready to be picked up by the buyer this week.
Gave the grey plastic cover a clean with degreaser and a rag, then a wipe with a clean wet cloth. Came up nice.
Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
