Aveling feed pump
I am in the (sloooow) process of rebuilding an Aveling (9212) from a mixed collection of bits. You can laugh at my efforts on our website www.essexsteam.co.uk
The boiler is now close to reassembly and the pump needs reassembling. It is a R10 pump (2 chambers) and I need some drawings/sketches/photos or whatever as the internals are all missing. I am now stuck as I can't refit the front tubeplate without fitting the pump, as I would like to fit the carrot bolts and pump while I can still access the inside of the barrel. If anyone can help with any info I will be very grateful John M |

James C might be able to help you - he has machined a number of Aveling pumps and produces a series of new A & P parts including clacks, safety valves, tender valves etc. - any brasswork. Send him a PM and I will tell him when I see him next.

We will soon be in the same situation as John with our Aveling 2760 after the pump has been weld repaired as another question there is over an1/8" clearance between the neck ring and plunger and 1/4" between body and plunger how tight should this actually be is this why A&P pumps are not rated
Thanks for your help Mike |
