    Underseal, waxoyl, dintrol or something else?

    Hi all, I need to underseal my van as I've had it jetted off so that some welding can be done for the mot. As soon as the areas are patched up, I want to give it a good treatment to the whole underside I'm just asking what other people have used and what's the best thing to use. Some people have...

    Rust and a lot of it!

    After looking around a bit I've discovered a few dormobile owners with the same issue. Looks like it has something to do with how the roof was attached in the first place. Not sealing the hinge points well enough allowed moisture to get in and being almost in the gutter hasn't helped either...

    Oh dear! Did you have any rot on the pillar? Mine has gone through where it welds to the inner skin. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rust and a lot of it!

    The strange thing with mine is the gutters seam to be in a reasonable condition. How did you fix yours? The outer skin is pretty solid, it's the inner skin and the part where the pillar joins the roof that is rotten. I've only had the bus a few weeks and I've already found out that one of the...

    Rust and a lot of it!

    It's a dormobile roof conversion. The same board is on the other side above the sliding door but I'm scare to take it off now! Does anyone know if replacement inner skins for that area are available? I've looked online but can't find any. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rust and a lot of it!

    Hi all I'm looking for some advice on this rust issue, I've just taken down a bit of board that was along the interior to replace with a new one but as I took it down I discovered it was covering up a fair bit of rust. I've cleaned it back with a wire brush to get most of the loose bits off but...

    Indicators not flashing but hazards working?

    Ok thanks, I found some diagrams on vintagebus this morning and when I get home from work I will look at it properly. It's interesting that there are 2 fuses, I assumed it would all be from 1. Thank for the input guys, I'm probably going to be asking a lot on here as I come across problems...

    Indicators not flashing but hazards working?

    The power goes away from the stalk when the switch is made. Isn't the fuse the same for the hazard lights? As they are still working. This is really frustrating for me because I'm an electrician by trade but never touched auto electrics in my life until yesterday. All part of the fun though...

    Indicators not flashing but hazards working?

    Thanks for the response, I've checked the centre connection on the indicator stick and it has power to it. If I touch a wire across to either side it lights up the same as flicking the stalk. I have noticed that when the stalk is moved the power disapears where I assume it should just go across...

    Indicators not flashing but hazards working?

    Hi all, I've got a 72 dormobile that's been working well up until yesterday. The hazards lights work correctly, switched on all 4 exterior indicators flash, clicking noise heard from the flasher relay and interior red and green lights flash. That's the working part. When the ignition/engine is...
