Re: A Tale of Two Patricians

Back at the Oregon shop and, while most of the trip this time will be in other work, I am going to spend some time on the Patrician and have ordered a few things for it including a Treadlevac rebuild kit and new cylinder casting. The Treadlevac in the car is good but unused for decades so at least needs new rubber parts but I am going to rebuild the very rough one from the parts car so that I can just swap them out. I'll append some photos to this after I save it because I can't seem to stay logged in long enough to do so at once.

As you can see, it's a mess inside. I also bought a few caps with a hole to use as adapters for my pressure bleeder so that the system can be thoroughly flushed.
