The push on fuel pipe connection was very poor resulting in a very real fire hazard. As a result the later post war pattern was introduced by 1944 (possibly earlier).

The dimensions sayed the same throughout.

I was still using them in the TA up to 10 years ago (including the double burner pattern).
You took the words right out of my fingers Neil. Thats the one I am looking for and I think, only think!, its the same size as the later No.2, but we shall soon find out from Bruce.

Thanks
Nigel
