This is a steel frame with wooden slats. In good condition and curved to fit a t2 tin top roof. No rot to the wooden slats. One or two of the y shaped brackets that hold it to the gutter are a little tarnished. Will look good on any tin top (except mine as i now have a Paris sunroof that can't...

If I want to change my exhaust from stock (I think) on my XO to something that gives a more meaty sound and maybe a few more horses, what are he best options? Do I need to retune the carbs if a change is made?

Just had an advisory on split ones this weekend. Apparently as long as they do not let in dirt etc they will pass. Best to change them though I guess

They have! I carry one around in my glove box with spare copies for whoever i meet. It is in word though. Magoo, if you pm me your e mail i'll send you a copy for your project.

This might seem straight forward but i had sinilar problems until i replaced the coil/spark plug leads and cleaned up the battery earth connector which was rusted to the van. Now i have no problems. Not sure why though but worth a try!

The cost for spraying the van is usually in the prep time and not for the paint or painting itself. Keep the pop top and just put a 'temporary' white top coat over it - no prep! I had a Paris sunroof fitted this year and it's excellent but a touch pricey!

True. It's just that the Halfords Classic oil i use is well expensive. There are loads of cheaper types out there. Just not sure what grade is really required.

It's not on their web site. I have tried e mailing but no reply. I guess it's the old phone call then!

I have seen one from Butty's Bits in the C&B mag that looks good but it is LHD only. Anyone know where i can get a RHD version?

Anyone know the answer please?

Thanks Sparkywig. Can i use a cheaper oil - what do other people use?

Fitting an oil bath soon. What oil should i use and how many litres do i need? Is this a regular change as part of a service?

Anyone got one of the above going cheap as this is £25 from VWH?

That looks like the one. Thanks

I am after the connector tube from the oil bath air filter to the top of the engine (where the pancake filter originally sat). Does this have to be a solid metal tube or can i use a flexi card/metal tube as for the bottom bit (if you know what i mean)?? Does anyone have one or advice?

No probs with the brake fluid level. Must admit it hasn't been changed recently!

Was driving the van this weekend and had to pump the brakes on one occasion as i could nearly push my foot to the floor. After that it was ok but it has happened recently before. I cannot see any brake fluid leaks and the brake fluid level remains constant. I have had no work done on the brakes...

Bump

Good point. How do I stop the rust then. What is the best rust killer?
