Spring is here and I'm away using the Square Four for some little house renovation jobs in a nearby town. There's a little bit of time in the workshop to do a few bits on the Huntmaster.
We'll start with blocking that hole in the primary case that used to be used for the chain oiler before the fully Enclosed Rear Chain Case arrived. It's lost its blanking plug so I've made a new one up from a cheese head 2BA screw with a fibre washer:
The next one is a bit more serious. This is the pinhole in the fuel tank - I've taken the tank off for better access which is quite easy with these single centre bolt tanks. I've opened the hole up a little bit to clear the paint with a scriber and I've cleaned the area with acetone.
I've put a blob of Seal-All in that hole - just a tiny blob. After deliberating for a while over the approach I would take to this repair I realised that Seal-All had been sealing several holes in the W/NG tank for many years, and is still good. We'll see how this turns out tomorrow.
