Re: NYC Hudson
I had a ruby that whistled .I was told a piece of stainless steel screen cut to the size of a dime and put in the front of the boiler tube would solve the problem It did .

A few questions: - The axle pump seems to be on the low volume side. Is that anybody else's experience? It's not keeping up... wonder if it's the pump or if I need to investigate the whole pump system. - The burner whistles. (No, I'm not going to build a radiant burner for it.) Any suggestions for taming the note? Thanks! -Richard -- == Richard Finlayson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Headlight
Hi, I have the basis for a gas (butane) powered headlight tested out. If anyone is interested email me when I am back from our US trip in a couple of week's time and I will put together a sketch. Best wishes, Susan.

Richard, For the whistling burner, wrap stainless steel insect screen round the burner, tightly,, 2 layers.. for the axle pump, remove the balls, clean the seats with a D bit, install new balls[after the tap the ball in the seat trick] brings tears to the eyes! these pumps supply more water than needed when in good condition.

Dave, I agree with the others that you are too modest about your contribution. In addition to hosting the sslivesteam list you have distributed regularly the local steamup calendar and had a big role in making the Summer Steamups happen. Thank you. Steve
Re: G1MRA memberships - USA
With the list mom's forebearance I'd like to get a couple items out for U.S. G1MRA members; 1. I've had many inquiries over the last few months about lapsing dates that show up on the mailing labels. Ignore those dates. England won't remove your name from the roster unless I notify them of a lack of payment. They've been playing with label merge from their database and someone's got the expiration date column on the merge list. Fear not, I have the checkbook and spreadsheet and keep an up-to-date list of who's current and who's not. Additionally, I forward a copy of the checkbook register to our British treasurer so they have up-to-date(quarterly anyway) records of all our financial transactions. 2. I'm going to get all US members squared up to expire at the end of the year (Fall issue being the last). Pro-rated membership is $6.50/issue. So, for recent renewals that has been either $13.00 to expire in 12/02(or 1/03 depending on how she's done up the membership cards) or $39.00 ($13 + $26) which takes people up to 12/03. Some folks like to pay years in advance, fine by me. That's all. Jim

Richard, One other item to check for with the pump; check the intake in the tender. I have an Aster Jumbo that would pump water with the hand pump, but the axle pump would not work. After spending much time with the axle pump, I realized that the pickup in the tender was an eyelash from the tender floor. Far enough away to allow the hand pump to work, but to close for the axle pump to get enough suction to work. I cut some slits in the pickup assembly and the axle pump works wonders. Dan Fuller
