There may be something to be said for getting a turnkey engine that you can install to keep you ging for the rest of the summer, then you can investigate your existing engine at relative leisure...

Epic efforts, well done to all concerned, just got to pack now!!

That is amazingly thorough and I really hope it gets sorted out for you. Didn't look too bad until I saw the interior shots :shock:

Plenty of the shores of Lake Constance (bodensee) or failing that anywhere along the very southern border of Germany with Austria is stunning mountain scenery, Zugspitze region even Berchetsgaden etc.

Lovely, reminds me very much of the Renault Estafette van with that colour scheme and roof line! Meanwhile at this side of the pond, I got some help washing the van for the first time ever the other day!! Spot the Bus....

As promised, difference between early interior panelling material (left, 1968)and later (r) Circa 1972

In all likelihood, nothing, but the points could just concieveably have burned or slipped - happened to me before on an Austin Maxi I had, they slipped miles and it ran like crap until I found it! It probably is mechanical though as the others have said...

Erm, could it be preignition? (pinking?)

That's brilliant, thanks very much for that! Now, googles custom sticker manufacturers in the Derby region... :lol:

Yeah, half trying at any rate! Cheers for that, that's really good of you! I did know about orange light, yep - on the 'to do ' list, doesn't work at the moment! Until then I'll just have to resort to an 'over the shoulder' check to remind me whether or not I have an oversized frame tent on...

I think it probably is matey, I've used pics from that google cache lots of times to work out what goes where!! :D Yeah, no doubt it is some such useful advice! Is yours still readable Bookie?

I got a VW heritage one I think, it was the rebuildable type: https://www.vwheritage.com/shop/113127025D/fuel-pump-t1-t2-1-2-1-6-for-dynamo-rod-best-quality/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; But take care if you order one - you need to measure the length of the actuating rod to...

Hi all Dormobile owners, Really pernickety bit!! - under the sink lid, there is/ was a warning label, something to do with travelling with the lid up or something. Anyway - mine is 80% missing - I wondered if anyone had a photo of the original - was thinking of trying to print up a...

As above - very similar symptoms to mine - you may have already read this thread... http://forum.earlybay.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=71056" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Can't have been easy fella - well done! I am thinking of putting some USB chargers or something under the chrome roll-top ashtray in mine, so it still looks the same when its closed but is useful! So mine had the ashtray - yours probably has the kitchen shelf over the units?Eminently more...

Out of interest, roughly how much was it to have the van shipped over - and could you leave it full of your stuff?

Yeah, there *might* be a square plate on each corner with a raised, angled circular bit in the middle - into which the table leg screws (something like a 5/16" UNC screw!)

Good job! From what I understand, the company trading as Dormobile these days doesn't have any of the historical production records of old Dormobile in its heyday. Someone please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, however! So, sadly, probably not, unless you are lucky enough to tun up a...

Wow - fantastic adventure and a fantastic looking bus too - very crisp looking - love the details like the side stripes too. Enjoy! If you have time take in Donegal and the west coast of Ireland for rugged coastal scenery, or into Antrim to Giant's Causeway, great calling point in N.I.!
