Hey folks. What's everyone's thoughts on vacuum distributors ? I dont have one on my 1600 and she runs ok with non, well i think she does. I know there is less heat etc with vacuum but i cant help think would she run better with vacuum. Ichanged to electronic ignition too so not sure if that...

Cheers for the replies so far folks. Well before work today. I had a potter around and just let her run. Strangely on the carb i took the left pipe i blocked off because it thought the bung was missing and really oddly she ran better. There were a few tiny pops but when she warmed up she ran...

Totally true Ozzie. Thats a good idea too dude. Well im thinking well now im thinking is that with 2 boxes you can keep the food etc that you would use over time in the one keeping them cool more because you dont have to open it often and the other box keeping the immediate drinks, food etc you...

All fridges will sap your battery 🙁. Trusty cool box on wheels it is then for me or just put under my bed in the cool ha. Ohh or get another cool box in the place a fridge will go in the same size and it will be out of the sun too. 2 cool boxes. Oooh i feel an idea coming on but its not formed...

Hey folks. Took my bus to work today and shes feeling like shes lacking in power and sluggish. Slow off a roundabout too. The engine runs fine but she feels like shes a 1200 as opposed to a 1600 and going up the hill the engine was revving but there was no "normal power" if that makes sense. She...

Hmm. I have heard folks say fridges sap the battery apart from the Crx 50 . Im thinking of solar panels too. Ahh i got this all to come with mine but im not doing it on my own ha.; 😕.

But but theres coffee granules there too Ozzie. Coffee stella 😳. Ooh thats wrong 😆

I know what you mean. I think alot of folks love to own one because they are an iconic vehicle and always will be and think yeah lets get one especially this time of year when in reality if they do buy one its just too much for them if things go wrong and dont have the patience, know how etc. i...

Totally @Ben72Bay im the most fussiest bus owner ever 😆. So if you see a male version of Dorien Green with a vacuum in one hand and a phone or tablet in the other then you know its me. Still, im going to have to live in the 70s untill that's all working ha. This is very true @milfredo and they...

Hey @Ben72Bay well im thinking well when i can find someone in person to help to set up properly, (ive banned myself from it all ha) im thinking a fridge, a phone, tablet, small vacuum cleaner, maybe a couple of extra lights oh and i got this device too that is a battery pack for if your...

@Coda its the bus in the attachments dude.. @sparkywig you got it. I wonder why though. Its seems some did and some didn't back in the day. Like the Auf Weidersehen Pet brown bay. Im sure that was the registered plate. @YellowBay69 i never play that. Honest. 😗😆😁.

Hey folks. Just seen this on an episode of The Proffesionals before I go to work Something isn't quite right 🤔 ha.

Good luck with the search Aimsz. I hope you can find the bus. There is a page on fb called "wheres my dub now" it might be worth asking on there. Theres another page similar too but cant remember the name of it 😕 🤙 .

I love this. What an inspiring guy and my god i really want another beetle 😳. I really need more space ha.

Well i got a rechargeable cordless inflator from Amazon and its just came now. Hope its good 🤙.

This is really cool. I bought mine 23:years ago for £1100 ha. She needed a full resto though but i could never let he go to the scrap yard. She was on her last legs and my heart strings were pulled heavily so she had to be mine regardless. Trouble is my bus will never be for sale for as long as...

Hey folks. Well i had toi block off both the tubes now properly because the right pipe rubber bung completely fell apart and half of it was missing and causing the engine to not run right. No backfires after a run and rev etc and touch wood she's running good. 🙂🤙.

Cheers for the reply folks. Well i think for now im going to get a rechargeable inflator i think that i can plug in a home and take out. I have basic electrics in my bus untill i can get my leisure etc working. Some of you folks know about that and ive banned myself from that depatment 😳😆. A...

Hey @thejinx cheers for the reply. Well i had a brainwave and i looked at old photos of my engine and blew up the pic and it is definately blocked off. It must have popped off when doing something but i have no idea where it is ha. Oh well il have to see what i have and get it covered. Cheers 🤙.

Hey folks. Looking at my carb. Should the left pipe coming out of the carb be blocked off too ? I put my finger over it and revs drop and then back up Total brain fuzz today. Plus I got a bit of backfire too. What do we think ? Cheers.
