Air compressor, safty cut out?

Rover Renovations are really helpful aren't they.

The dryer contents are silica gell IIRC, so you can dry them out in the overn with no real problems.

The motor sits on 2 sealed ball bearings, so if the seals stayed ok then the water shouldn't have got into the motor.  Be careful if you try to strip it down as the brushes are at the other end of the motor and are radial brushes, ie if you pull the end plate off you might not get it back together again.

If you ordered a seal and barrel kit then you get a new balance weight anyway, if yo uonly ordered the seal then it's a good idea to take the balance weight out to fit the new seal but you can do it in-place.

Rover Renovations are really good, I ordered the classic EAS overhaul kit and rang him up to confirm a few things and after explaining it was the crank that had gone he said he would throw a secondhand crank in for free! I,ve been watching the tracking of the parcell and it should be here tomorrow taking only 5 days from the states! it on royal mail were as good!

The crank is off my compressor now.... (took a bit to get off due to the water getting in there) and on arrival of the new crank will put it all back together and see if it works!

Let you know if it does!   [-o<

Range Rover Blues:
Great.  I fancied the uprated pump they stock, but it's over $250 IIRC and you have to butcher the enclosure to get it in, but with my Arnott GIII springs I need a faster supply of air.
