The Hi-ho is a useless thing. The rust looks severe.....worry more about the rust, and if it's like that there - start checking elsewhere.....it's not a good omen!

I have a good feeling that it's the same in other areas, I was expecting it as I collected at a peach of a price in February, just getting round to starting some work on her now, why is the Hi-lo a useless thing???

That rust in itself isn't major, but it's not a good sign and makes me wonder what else is lurking.
