The last Weeden steam engine was manufactured well over 50 years ago so there are not a lot of
parts remaining, too often engines are stripped for parts to rebuild the more popular models.
Hopefully these after market parts will help to preserve a few engines.

Sight Glasses
Replacement tubes come with a vinyl gasket on each end.
Installation instructions are included with each sight glass.
To check the length required remove the jam nuts on both fittings and check size of ports, if they are larger than 1/8" in diameter order the 1 1/8" long style as the sight glass goes inside the fitting. On fittings with smaller port openings the sight glass fits between the fittings so the shorter 1" glass is required.

Hold ends of band between thumb and forefinger of both hands with small end of band in right hand. Rotate end in right hand counter clockwise, the insert in large end and rotate clockwise to lock ends together.
To join left over pieces with no small end carefully pinch between coils with a pair of small side cutters to form a loop on each end, then hook loops together. Cuticle cutters are the perfect size for this.
