Mine did this, had the indicator wired to the wrong spade connector on the indicator housing, I'd connected it to the sidelight pin by accident - resulted in working but fast flash.

Had a crap repro conk out on me so ended up tracking down a genuine Bosch recon - about £200 but worth every penny for peace of mind and guaranteed quality.

This looks great! Inspiring me to get back to the unit and start working on mine again. I've not touched it for bloody ages!

I was in a very similar position to you when I first got my bus from New Mexico - if you have a look early in my build thread you'll see it rough and then polished. I'd never done it before and borrowed a rotary polisher from a friend, bought a sponge bad and some Farecla G3 (I think!) and got...

Hardly had a second on the bus recently, unfortunately got made redundant and started a new job. Less money for more work, but at least it puts a roof over my head and food on the table! Managed to source a Bosch re-con alternator as mine is knackered. Will put it in at some point over winter...

50% off apparently! I'm so over using GSF now, I don't even bother checking even with the codes. It started getting really ridiculous the inflated prices, it was entirely pointless shopping there unless you had a 42% off code, even then it just about brought it inline with other suppliers.

You can buy all the parts you need - you're best whipping it off to see what is wrong with it. If it needs a few new parts, it may be worth replacing the whole thing. Some parts are tricky to get hold of. It's not too difficult to remove the bracket - you have to take the track cover off so...

Still available.

Looking for an alternator, ideally internal regulator to replace my knackered one. Close to Leeds for collection or posted if possible.

Microbus rear mat from my 71 US import. It's in need of a real good deep clean. Some minor tears from years of service but it's still pretty good. £30 collected - happy to wrap/box and for you to arrange courier - it's a heavy thing though!

Thanks for getting back to me - priced it up but its a bit much for me.

Would you do it for £80 posted? Will take it if you would! Cheers.

The butty's linkage was the first bit I bought for my bus and it's the best purchase I've made so far - Your work is looking belting so far. Inspiring me to do some more! What did you paint your torsion arms with? they look spot on.

Lacking motivation this week due to a baby who has decided to forget what sleep is. Tried straightening the bumpers a bit via running them over with the forklift. Worked a treat on the rear which is now battered but useable. The front is still a bit wonky but will pack the mounts out with a...

Bus did you proud on your trip! Looks belting.

What were the symptoms with your accuspark problem? I've kept my spare bosch dizzy in the van just incase but so far it's running way better than it was before. I'll keep my eye on it though, had read a lot of pretty mixed reviews but it I had it sat in the garage so it went on!

Not the worst I've ever seen! It's a shame about the welding/corrosion - did they outline it all in yellow so you know exactly what needs doing?

The stock cargo floor has a kind of raised section around the edge - ie the ribbed flooring is generally a little lower - which is why people pack it out with ply cut to fit the lower ribbed section before covering the whole cargo floor with another sheet.. I've used 6mm ply to cover the ribbed...

Thanks to George as per usual for saving my bacon with the loan of a timing light, managed to get my accuspark dizzy installed and timed up. I've kept the old Bosch points dizzy under the passenger seat just in case I have any bother. Got the accuspark fitted and timed up fairly easily...
