Svea 123 Optimus 8R and 99 fuel tank cap

I agree with @kerophile, and it depends on your skills and you comfort as to what choice you make.

The Base Camp are providing you with sound advice. I have the confidence that my skills, the care I take, and the testing that I do, means that my refurbishment will produce a safe SRV if used in the proper manner.

Cheers

I’ve mixed up my sages, haven’t I?

I meant @snwcmpr above; not @kerophile...

Hi @Tony Press ,I was keeping my head down!

I posted this 10 years ago and as you imagine it attracted a number of replies and differing opinions:

At the end of the day it should be a matter of competence and confidence, and access to some tools.
Things have moved on since I expressed my opinion. Knowledge, tools and instructional videos have all become available, but competence is more difficult to assess.

Best Regards,
Kerophile.

 

Thanks, George.
