Drained the stale fuel from the tank and lines tonight, never seen petrol so red before! Been in the tank for 20 years . I'm hoping to get her running this weekend

Great news Ray. With the boat as well preserved as it is, I would expect that the engine would be similar.

Yeh, 20 year old petrol - doesn't even smell like petrol anymore.

Just a dumb question, i noticed the drain bungs don't have any thread in them. I'm guessing corks were the plug of choice? Is this a Lewis thing ?
