hi all,

I am in the throes of repairing the gas valve for a Cheddar Hercules, and was wondering if there are any known spare parts knocking about? I think what has happened is the gas valve was opened fully and has seized, its completely locked up solid. Anyone know of anyone who may have spares?

cheers

Matt

Forest Classics sell the burners and jets used on the cheddar engines, and they also make gas tanks (although I'm not sure if they made the cheddar tanks).
Forest Classics would be your best bet.

Stuart models also advertise that they sell the Cheddar burners, jets, tanks and fittings, after all they overtook the Cheddar name, although I am disappointed to see that they still haven't re-introduced any of the range of Cheddar loco's apart from "Iver". :cry:
