OD is right, too much fuel swamping engine.

also check/change fuel filter, cheap way to eliminate another possible cause

I'm tall, I fitted daihatsu hijet seats which have a low squab, had them recovered, and had a extension welded to then to give more support under my legs which was easy enough.

Thanks Coda 👍

Hi Coda, did you look at a DC-DC charger , they're quite pricey for a 60A but I might go the whole way. Were the cells easy enough to join (solder?) and how did you spec the BMS? Asking because this is the sept/Oct 'job'. Also did you house the cells or leave exposed? Pg

Might also be worth looking into lithium leisure battery. That's a game changer from people I've spoken to. One said if he had not installed solar he wouldn't have bothered once he realised what lithium was capable of I think it really boils down to how long you plan to be off grid and what...

I thought the same when I got my bus, a LHD, apart from that it was perfect..... but.. .. it is actually really ok, you get used to it being LHD quite quickly. If the conversion was straightforward maybe I would still do it but it isn't, it's s hell of a job and now I've had the bus as long as...

Also something I have found and solved recently on VSR (voltage sensing relay) if you have different batteries, like AGM LB and lead acid MB there can be cross over as the LB might hold the relay open (I charge from LB side on shore power and if I disconnected my MB the relay held open creating...

I installed a Pure Highway DAB 400 which has worked really well, you attach the aerial inside the window top just behind mirror so nothing needed on outside. Our radio reception was never great but now I can get DAB and also bluetooth phone to it to play MP3 or whatever I want. It works by...

looking forward to seeing all the nice bays on display, we're camping for the weekend

got it, you can't see easily but there is a black wire there too, close inspection the yellow unconnected was my effort to get a ign feed to another area (radio) which I have unplugged for the moment :-/

Hi, My wires behind the cluster are a mess so I have decided now is the time to fix it. Properly. The plan to take pictures then rerun with new wiring, tidy it up, new clean feeds etc. But the first thing thats happened is I have undone the speedo and accidentally disconnected the wire at the...

Maybe someone can help but I could do with one to record trips. I've got a perfectly good working MPH early bay speedo but no tripmeter so could swap as well with cash. MPH, and greyface. I read some posts they are common, others they are rare so no idea what to expect. Or is there a...

awesome work Stu, we'll hook up someday and have a gin :-)

Just as an aside, to take it a tad further, I bought a 12v LCD display off of fleabay, was about 6 quid I think. I routed a couple of wires from each terminal of the LB up to the front of the van and affixed the LCD display there, gives me a quick reference as to how the LB is doing in the...

I found after a bit of trial and error that there is a durite split charge relay which does a slightly better job for around the same cost as a heavy duty relay and a smartcom. I found this out becuase I had a few probs with my smartcom unit, got through 2 so eventually spent a bit more on a...

anyone got a naff speedo, I need a needle. cheers Kev

Hi, I haven't had much luck with these, every speedo I have managed to get hold of to date is knackered, finally got a ok one and.. , bloody annoyed with myself doesn't say the half of it. If anyone has got a needle or pref a working speedo gauge unit please post up, I'm a tad desperate...

Hi, an old thread but same problem, if anyone has got a needle please post up, bloody annoyed with myself but can't glue the old one. Thanks Kev Thread locked - Old thread in incorrect forum. Please post in Parts Section as appropriate. Thanks.
