The  valve eccentric sheave, strap and rod are all missing. It has been mounted on an  adaptor plate which bolts to the top of the boiler.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eThe boiler is coal-fired, of steel construction with expanded  tubes, working pressure 80psi. It has had a satisfactory twice working pressure  hydraulic test and a new certificate issued - it needs a new water gauge glass  and a pressure gauge, it is otherwise in good condition.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eThere is a dynamo fitted, there is another dynamo with the  engine, along with chimney, canopy and a selection of drive belts.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eLength 29 inches\u003cbr\u003e  Bore approx 2 inch\u003cbr\u003e  Stroke 2 1\/2 inch\u003cbr\u003e  Weight approx 1 cwt\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Station Road Steam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54010046349653,"sku":"3387","price":595.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/0094\/2677\/files\/3387-1.webp?v=1779900084","url":"https:\/\/stationroadsteam.com\/products\/steel-boilered-electric-light-engine-stock-code-3387","provider":"Station Road Steam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
