thanks for the link chief,it's a job i'll tackle in a couple of weeks.

I have started to use the van a lot more recently,trying to reignite the lurve(long story). Before all my woes the van started fine and still does,after a long drive everything is as should be apart from a very hot dipstick test,been told because engine has only just covered 600 miles from...

Looking at things which i will do if i kept the van,header pipe or down pipe thingy for the brake resevoir going to the master cylinder,anyone know where you get it from??

Might be good news,well certainly on the zorst front. I managed to rope the wifey into helping me,i jacked the van up and placed on axle stands then asked her to blip the throttle and it keeps blowing like Puff the Magic Dragon on the offside but exactly where i don't know unless i strip the...

I have fitted a new diesel eberspacher heater when i got it back from MPW back in 2011 but as of yet had no need to fire it up. The only immediate hassle i do have at this time is a blowing standard zorst (only has around 2 1/2 k miles on it). Can not seem to find where it is blowing...

Well with one issue or another,long story,my stock bus zorst seems to be blowing when cold but after choke is off or engine warm the noise disappears.On start up and blipping the throttle i see exhaust fumes from the front edge of silencer,i assumed it was from the preheat pipe so bought some...

Thanks for the encouragement fellas,these are dark times for me at the moment,sort of a cross roads with regards to keep or sell. I guess over the last two years of troubles with engines and my emotional attachment have put the kaybosch on any enjoyment. I need to convince the wife and myself...

We've owned Valerie since 2010 and commisioned Midland Paintwerks in 2011 to sort out the exterior and do a baremetal respray which was fantastic,but with one thing and another and my O.C.D. about the van it has spoilt the dream :cry: Our first problem was a poor engine diagnosed as excessive...

Hi Graham just came acroos an advert ref steering rack conversions? Don't want to sound thick but is this instead of a steering box conversion or do you need to cure the one first?? Still putting pennies away if we don't manage to sell the van and this will be on the list of things to do...

Bought from Eurocarb 2 1/2 years ago,still have the invoice somewhere,fitted done about 700 miles then returned to stock setup and been stored ever since. Comes with a CB performance linkage and the manifolds for TP. Although been stored in a box i would reccommend a good clean out before...
