    90psi bottom cylinder
    I have taken the reed block apart an discovered that the gaskets between it and the block are broken, causing an air leak and one of te reeds was only opening very slightly, which was for the bottom cylinder.
    I have cleaned and replaced gaskets an now it is back on the motor, and I can now hear the squeaking of the reeds opening as closing as I turn the flywheel.
    There is not much else that could be wrong with it so I will give it a run today and let you know what happens.

    Thanks again
