Good here the oil valve doesn't turn off the oil. The water valve doesn't turn off the water. Neither that clever when diggin big holes where they run!!

Phoned Atkinson who were ferry helpful.... Its fooked!!! Been left on full open which knacks the thread atwix outer knob and valve!! Cock badgers.
Wicky. Make sure yours is greased and backed off a quarter turn!
Ok will do's it. When ya say greased do ya mean the pin that the wheel (knob) attaches to or did you clean it all up and apply coppaslip to all moving parts? Yer scaring me now as i never did look at me DRZ swingarm pivot bolt so that cud catch me out too!

Does heating oil wax like diesel when it gets cold? In which case one of those freeze jackets for water pipes ought to block it off while you change the popework, I've used them on central heating water pipes with success.

Sounds about right.
MSDS don't list a freezing point, that in itself might tell you something.

Is there not a plug in the opposite end of the tank right at the bottom?

If there is, it will be handy to drain the last bit oot once its near empty.

I'm guessing it's an old metal tank? I used to replace them some years ago. We had a pump and used it to 3/4s empty then drain from the gate valve. Anything from the rear plug was normally scrap as you couldn't help moving the tank around and disturbing the water a crap.

I eventually found a neat, simple solution. Took sight glass off valve...rotated valve 180degs and use "push to read" button as an on/off switch....... figured that out in less than two years.
