honitonhobbit Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I did ask my local parts supplier to get in a set of blue bag SS pistons. They did so. We opened the little bag in open mouth excitement. Then taped the bag up and sent it back Firstly, there's stainless, then there's stainless - this was rusty stainless Secondly, we felt that as they were going into a round hole - then they ought to be round as well, not oval I keep badgering Red to produce some - maybe one day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snagger Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I wish I could say I was surprised, Dave, but I'm just disappointed. Companies like Britpart undercut and then kill off the competition, leaving us with no choice but their rubbish, just like this case where they seem to be the only SS piston supplier now that Zeus stopped. I really wish people would spend that little bit more, get decent quality stuff and support the manufacturers and suppliers who enable us to obtain decent parts, but at this rate, Britpart will be the only parts supplier for older LRs and we'll all be screwed.

Boydie Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 There are oats and there are oats, you can pay a good price and get them before they go through the horse or pay less and get them in a nice blue bag after they have gone through it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blanco Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 To answer UdderlyOffroad's query, the pump can be activated with Nanocom I think, but some time ago I got the tip from another thread on here, which I just had a quick (unsuccessful) look for, the idea isn't new and isn't mine. All the Nanocom would be doing is directly switching the relay to activate the pump, so just remove the relay, substitute the switch and wander lead across the power out terminals and switch the pump on and off at will. Probably need ignition on, I can't remember.
