Well as so often happens when a problem is resolved I ask the question why not sooner?? Anyhow I finally thought about the vacuum process within the mechanism. The suction cap looked ok; the bellows did not appear fractured and I had sealed the assembly. Then I realised the last remaining item was the valve at the end of the vacuum tube. It looked damaged (valve in pic) and so replaced it with a new valve I had which was about the age of the machine and presto I had suction. The faulty valve then was not allowing the vacuum tube to be pressurised. After making some adjustments to a trading card output bracket I now have an operational machine and will now undertake a cosmetic resto.
