Time for a good old thread revival...
I have no updates on the old red, been busy with other projects but I have lead on some engine spares and I am hoping to get back working on it soon.
As an FYI on the molasses bath, after 6 months the Honda starter cup was wafer thin and rendered useless, the rasp and axe head were rust free and after 12 months the Victa head had completely dissolved.
Cheers
