    Camping heat, gas or diesel????

    Sounds good. Maybe go slightly bigger and go for the 2KW as I think the *2W* might be a tad underpowered. With your heater boxes / heat exchangers, try and keep your eyes peeled for some genuine original ones as they’re at least twice as good as modern reproductions which in my experience have...

    Camping heat, gas or diesel????

    Liking your new van with that high top roof on !!! :cool::cool: I’ve got an 8 KW that I’m just about to fit and I’ve heard from others that the 2KW is more than up to it and whatever one you order, you’ll still get a larger one as they only have larger ones in stock. My heat exchangers are quite...

    Insurance queries

    Yes go for the agreed value because insurance companies are a business and they’ll stiff you if they have even a remote chance of getting away with it. These didn’t mostly have rear seat belts initially so that’s a grey area. I’ve never had anybody ask if it’s a four or a five seat vehicle...

    1970 San Francisco westfalia resto

    Now I’ve heard of them but not that particular product. It does sound like it should be one of the better performers. Not even sure how I’ve heard of them? If it cures as a primer then even better I guess. How did you get to hear of it then ? Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,we always like recommends :)

    Help needed, Losing Power when over 50 mph.

    Hi bud , thanks for that last bit of info. Do you have a fuel filter in there anywhere ? It’s just that you may have crud in your tank if it was enough to give you bad running again from running low. You can get waterproof endoscopes for modern phones for about twenty quid and you could have a...

    Starter motor problems has anyone else have the same problem as me

    Hi guys, what sort of motor do you have ? I’m guessing a type 4 as it’s automatic. A couple of things could be happening as in there’s a bush on some to slide the starter into, these could be problematic if not quite right. But eating starters sounds like it may not be turning the starter off...

    Sunday

    Gabs got his new Alfonso style motor in and he resisted the urge to give it ‘A Squirt’ and he seemed to take the hills with ease. We hooked up in various places then went for a little roll and ended up in Gordano services and yacked and yacked then we yacked some more. Got some coffee and some...

    Fuel lines

    So the nuts and bolts of it is. Fuel line with Viton is up to and including 100% ethanol resistant and is available stainless over braided too because of the flouro ingredient in the mix. Great for modern petrol and modern diesel which is also mixed and diluted with rapeseed’s oil but costs a...

    Fuel lines

    How is it that I hear Viton mentioned quite a bit lately ? Mainly to do with stuff involved with fuel. Like Viton tipped needle valves for carbs etc. Is this something that needed to be introduced since the butchering of our ordinary petrol? I hadn’t even heard of it until I had some very...
