But, is the compressor working and do you have any air leaks?

Thanks David and Jon for your support . Especially Jon for the help with the work shop manual and the phone calls .
Been putting all the little bits back today brackets and stuff . another thing before I forget the engine cut off is not working I think maybe a kink in the cable ? The solenoid is working tho .
Then around 2pm I decided to put the radiator under the bus ready for tomorrow...well this became that and before I new I was jacking the radiator into position . Its still a pofteenth from being in correctly , but I called time and will resume tomorrow . NOW don't show health and safety the pics....but a man's gotta do !! slowly, slowly brick at a time the wood platform is bolted to the jack .

The falling bricks will cause more pain than the radiator.

Bernie, well done!!
You are a man after my own Jock's heart. Zaccary the sort of thing that happens around here. He put four grader wheels on on his own the other day (much to the relief of the young stationhands who were meant to help him) and yesterday we used a jack with a three foot bit of steel to jack up a portable loading ramp to put it's legs on. His endless chain is his best friend and I guess you don't get to his age without learning how to do things smarter, not harder.
Glad your bus is coming along.
