I built a Tomboy with a fifty year old Mills 0.75 diesel engine. It still runs well but the contra piston is a little loose so that the compression setting backs-off when it runs.
Denis suggested fitting a short length of fuel tube to give more friction, and Steve thought that plumber's tape around the compression screw would fix it.
I've used both these ideas to good effect. Thanks.

There was an incident on Sunday morning of possible interference on 35,170.
Has anyone else experienced this? If so we need to build up a dossier for investigation by ICASA.
