Well here goes ..this is my petter 2.5hp junior. runs really well on parrafin and it dont spit oil everywhere..engine number 53318.needs a new water butt as it leaks due to a few small rust holes in the base, and i noticed the trolley has bowed in the middle due to a bit of rot..

Fine looking engine.
As for the trolley, the way the cross brace/engine mount has been let in won't help as it has weakened the main rails by 50%.

Lovely engine and I also agree with Stuart the unfortunate design of the trolley has not helped the cause,

that pic is actually the pic from the last owner..but yeah i thought that about the wood bit..I am getting someone to make a new trolley without that support bit as its not needed.
The water pipe needs replacing on the bottom as its a bit rotten as well but its just a water pipe of a standard size so easy to do. And the oiler needs looking at as it leaks but it just looks like another seal needs doing as soon as its better weather and i am home i will take a pic as it is now as that pic is 5 years old .
