The Dream Steam Dead-Leg Displacement Lubricator ensures 'O' ring pistons receive just the right amount of lubrication during steaming. The new revised design now includes an adjustable fixing plate and a drain screw to empty the cup.  We also include a special curved tip syringe to draw off excess water before topping the oil up. 

It might seen odd but if you imagine water going down the bath plug in a circular whirling motion - this is how the oil travels down the inside surface of the tube whilst steam comes up the middle. As the steam condenses in the cup, the oil floats to the top and down the protruding tube.  Excess water is sucked out using the curved tip syringe supplied.

One of the most popular and effective upgrades you can get, along with a three wick meths burner, the effective pressure is raised to about 20-25 psi, thus giving more power to the pistons but still within the safe working pressure of the standard boiler. 

Improve the steaming of your loco with Dream Steam's Three Wick Meths Burner, which, when combined with a High Pressure Safety Valve, will increase power and running time to 15-20 minutes. Dream Steam have introduced a new silicon rubber bung with a breather tube for safety and a curved tip syringe for filling and draining the tank.

To take advantage of the extra running time of the Meths Burner, this Water Top Up Valve allows water to be pumped into the boiler a little at a time during running without having to take the Safety Valve off.  Use with high temperature plastic feed pipe fitted to a water pump bottle or a large syringe.

To control the extra power or just to add extra control to speed, this regulator kit contains an adaptor  that fits into the whistle hole and extends into the cab where a fine control regulator valve controls the amount of steam that passes into the feed pipe to the pistons. Opening in top of adaptor to take High Pressure Safety Valve

Comes with adaptor, regulator valve and handle, copper pipe to forward and reverse block with connection nipple and nut, a cap to close off existing steam feed under dome, washers and full instructions.  Some dismantling and minor alteration to the cab front is required to fit this item. 

Sold in a pair, this kit is the most economic way to take full advantage of the extra power generated from the Meths Burner and Higher Pressure Safety Valve by adapting your standard pistons into more efficient 'O' ring pistons and gland nuts and higher tension cylinder springs, which combined reduces the amount of steam leakage and lets more of the energy from the steam transfer to the drive wheels.
