    Crossdresser here :)

    🧐 Have never seen high indicators at the front and small lights at the back! Guessing that ain’t the way they made them!

    Carburretor Quiz

    Spot on. I replaced a dynamo with a bosch alternator but the pump was changed too for that reason. I’ll get that checked first though 👍

    Carburretor Quiz

    I did manage to get it started with the magic fuel spray in the air intake a few times! 🧐. So no baloney, will check out the rod and guide stand. Cheers

    Carburretor Quiz

    Yeah, the van would run again when cooled down. I’ll try the rod-thinking about it, the issue began after fitting an alternator and new pump! Would that account for the tricky tuning and rough running too? Or seaparate issue-ie the advance?

    Carburretor Quiz

    Thanks Matty and Mike, I’ve tried a refurb on the carb but still same issues. Part of me thinks it’s not the carb 🤔 but going with the garage advice… so Weber then but not sure about the twin set up/cost. What single weber carb would suit and where best to get it? Cheers

    Belly Pans - Are They Necessary?

    Belly Pans - Are They Necessary?

    I have a ‘72 crossover with belly pans, completely covering the entire underside between the jacking points. It was imported by Devon to Sidmouth, as a tin top presumably, for converting to a moonraker with pop top.

    Front speakers.

    Van speakers When we bought our van 20yrs ago it had classic 70s parcel shelf speakers stuck to the roof behind the front seats. They have spotlights in the back pointing to the rear. Works pretty well. They’re still there lol.
