That's a nice bus, liking the Fram oil filter.

I like the battles with the wind when its really windy its like sailing a yacht, and you have to sail into the wind, hold on tight and try not to scream :D

The suspense is killing me , I have the flags and bunting on standby :D

It sounds like the drive shafts, the old grease will be dried and buggered. You need to re paCK'EM WILL NEW GREASE - A LOVELY JOB :)

I can feel that street party getting closer :party0003:

Dragged the bus out of the garage to make room to do a spot of welding on my T4 work van. I doubt I've put a hundred mile on it this year :( On the other side there's less chance of it rusting :D

Why not look into fitting a aftermarket rain sensor?

We are becoming a nation of button pushers, if you have been on a 2 day course and received the appropriate meaningless bit of paper 'your qualified'! :sick0006:

When the wheels turn there's going to street parties up and down the country :party0041:

First thing pull out the plugs and see if there getting fuel.

£54.00 for a pair of calipers sounds fair enough to me. Some people use air to blow the pistons out I use a grease gun, its a bugger cleaning out the grease afterwards though :)

Hiya, when you say they are shot they are just a lump of steel, it is the pistons and seals you need to replace about £40.00 for the pair. The pistons are 54mm here is a link for some on fleabay. Bigred are a really good company to deal with.

Simple to make your own from some stainless steel 1" flat bar, easy to source a piece of fleabay.

Getting closer :bliss:

I cut and bolted a leather loop, works a treat.

I would get rid of the Jubilee clips and fit 'proper' fuel pipe clips too. Glueing is not a option when you have heat and vibration, fire is not your friend :D

Love the cat what's his/her name ?

Hi Redgaz54, yes I found them too and hopefully they may be here today :bliss: it makes it reasonable with the pistons too. The pistons were well seized in too, I reckon I could get another 20 miles to the gallon now :lol:

I know Ozzy but it hurts, it hurts :sad0049:

Talking of fuel, check your fuel lines and ideally replace with high quality and use correct pipe clips.
