Hey guys first things first I'm new to the forum so hi! lol
I have an old dragunfly mech autococker better know as a focker, it was in the loft of my house when I moved in and is what got me into the sport, to date I have never been able to get it out on the field,
it was riddled in leaks when I first aired it up 1 major leak still exists.

the big problem is the regulator has fell off....the mount for it that attached to the front block decided to dethread itself so I am in need of either having the front block remilled and tapped or getting hold of a new front block but as you guys who know about cockers will already be aware of the dragunfly does not use many standard cocker parts the whole front block being 1 of them non standard cocker parts.
the other issue is there is a huge leak from the gauge and its been screwed in and sealed with god knows what, seems like red concrete, does anyone know any safe ways of getting a gauge off that is pretty much moulded into place lol.

I know this marker might not seem worth saving to many people but seeing its what got me into the sport and I had it gold plated I don't mind spending what ever it takes to get it working but if possible avoid buying parts from abroad as I never seem too sure on doing that.

any help or advise would be appreciated or even better if anyone has any dragunfly parts hanging around that they don't mind selling lol.

this is what it was before the regulator fell off lol.

To get the gauge off, you can try heating it. The guage sits on the front block, right? If the front block is loose, put it into boiling water and see if you can get it to move while it's hot. Be careful not to scald yourself, and use oven mitts when handling it.

As for the front block problem - would it be possible to convert it to an minicocker front block?
