Hi, I have just had a moment of madness and bought a Jobo ATL2 plus processor off FleaBay......It hasn't been used for quite a while and so my question is, is there likely to be anything stuck or problems due to it not being used? Any info on 'stock faults' would be appreciated along with ANY tips about this processor

Cheers Dave in windy London

Well I've got the ATL2+ now and it was sold as 'spares or repair' from a genuine guy that hadn't ever used it.....The main problem appears to be that the jacket drainage valve/tap has broken off at the back! Luckily I knew about it and didn't attempt to fill it with water!

There is only about 3mm of pipe sticking out so attaching another pipe is out of the question...As far as I can see I have two options.
1) Strip the unit down and get to the outlet from the inside to replace the connector
2) Attempt to find another smaller diameter pipe with a 15mm external dimension and clue that inside the broken pipe.

What do you guys think will be the best option and if it's option a) how much work will it be?

Any advice appreciated..........Thanks Dave in London

ps...there are quite bad chemical stains on the inside jacket, element etc and Notice that Jobo do a Processor Clean II chemicals..Any good?
