I brought one of the these and I take it everywhere I go. Brilliant bit of kit. It may not save your bus being stolen but it is something else that slows them down!

Picking up on this thread, I am about to perform my first ever gearbox oil change :oops: (newbie!). Is this oil OK to use and do I need about 3litres...

Thanks to this forum, I not only brought a 1971 earlybay van but I kept at it when we first got it and had a few teething problems. Whenever I have a question, I come onto the forum and receive fantastic help. At the moment, I am learning all the basics about maintenance and being a newbie, I...

Just been trying to remove the spark plugs negotiating around my twin carbs. :cry: :evil: To remove the plugs, I have to remove the breather tubes into the carbs (well I think that is what they are called. :oops: I have just undone the jubelle clip and pulled the rubber pipe of the carbs...

Just tried be tightening the bolts that hold the fuel pump to the crank case and one of the bolts will not tighten and just keeps moving round. Are these meant to be fixed solid into the crank case, if so, has mine snapped? Just wondering if there is a way of screwing it back into the case...

Our Bus is 1971 left hand drive and the fan belt on it currently is a toothed fan belt. I ordered a spare fan belt a while back and was going to fit it today and realised it did not have these teeth and was smooth all the way round (v shaped). Is there a difference between the two and did I...
