try ebay or junkyards. Is it the 250 or 305?

tomriker · 10-08-2010, 06:47 PM

it's neither. can't find anything at all on ebay for it. it's the original one from 1949-50 it's the first model of the Dream

Good luck, but it's probably an impossible task.

ahh Honda Dream D type.....I've been up to my ears in trying to find a leaking tube in one of our D type Foster-Wheelers. Looks like the Three Stooges we had in here plugged and cut the wrong tube out, damn thing is still leaking somewhere in the back of the generating bank. When I put a 150 psi squeeze on it you can hear it hissing and dripping.. there's only 1080 tubes in there, can't be that hard to find the leaker.....
