Carl,

Late Western has beat me to it he is correct of course and "Turbo" is the gentleman on the regulator on his Fowler, remember watching him down a hole at Torbay with the Fowler in 2015, less said the better perhaps about that.

Yes correct also with McLaren "Mr Tweedie" of 1911,
Built as 8HP 3 speed for export to Patagonia and used for hauling wool bales to port for export to UK, the Mclaren reimported back to UK in 2002 and has had an extensive restoration over 10 years which is very evident in the condition in which the engine is presented, I last saw it at Welland rally back in July this year.
