    Air pressure bleeder sounds like someone is using an air nailer in my cab?

    Post up what air pressure is indicated on the gauge. If a safety valve is 'blowing off' then it is way too high. And needs addressing asap.

    Use of "Emergency Stop" CB2 on MEP-002a/MEP-003a ?

    I do not know the definitive answer, no doubt a 'sparky' will chip in. But like most things that run, and generate power, or power equipment, It might be very necessary to " shut off and run" OR Isolate 'something OR SOMEONE' pronto in one swift (and easy) movement.

    Loose steering?

    that "fly right" "fly left" can be (probably was!) very disconcerting..and is usually caused by TIGHT components somewhere in your steering 'system'. CHECK for binding or Wear. IF your steering box gearing is at fault it will "remember" a position and wander from 'high' tight spot to 'high'...

    As already mentioned, that engine will be fine at that ratio of 'contamination' (benefit)for the weather temperatures at this time of year anyway.

    Can anybody identify this?

    That would seem a lot to fork out for 'decorative' box. (and) perhaps the inside pieces are hopefully present. Good for decorating a signals truck I would think.
