My main aim is defrosting the windscreen in the winter mornings which was why I wanted to use the existing vents. Does your setup defrost the cab? Cheers Monkey

I am planning to install a diesel heater under the van and funnel the hot air to the front vents. I was thinking of removing the centre part of the heater tube as shown in the picture and connecting the heater outlet. My question is what should I do at the rear? Is it ok to just leave the pipe...

I've fitted a new exhaust pipe but it is blowing at the point indicated on the pic. What could I try to solve this? Cheers Monkey

I have an exhaust fitting kit but I am a bit confused. Firstly is there a reason there are two of the big circular clamps, I can only see that I need one? Also where the tailpipe fits to the exhaust box should the part arrowed face towards the box or away from it? Cheers Monkey

I've narrowed down my lighting issues to the indicator stalk which will need replacing. The current one has 7 wires which seems to be identified as US spec by AHSchofield and Just Kampers. Does this mean someone has fitted the "wrong" part in the past or would this be the correct one for my...

That makes sense. Last stupid question, if I rig this up using spade connectors what wire should I use?

Forgive the stupid question but how do you know which terminals go where?

Yeah, I opened it up and it looked fine, no corrosion or dirt. I was able to manually switch it over so that it's now set to low beam rather than high so at least I'm not peeing everyone off at night! I was hoping to use a cheaper one to identify where the problem is.

My headlamp relay looks like this. I'm struggling to find a similar one online, most are the black cube ones which also have 5 pins. I think I read somewhere that someone wired up a cube style relay to work as a replacement for my one. Is this possible or did I just dream it? Cheers Monkey

Do you know if it's possible to disassemble the indicator switch for repair as I'm getting a feeling that's where the problem is?

My lights are stuck on high beam. Should the "click" be felt in the indicator switch or will it come from the relay? I currently have no physical "click" at the indicator stalk and can't find out whether it's the relay that's broken or the indicator switch. Cheers Monkey

I can turn the key to turn on ignition but turning further to start gives me nothing. I had success previously whacking the ignition housing but even a good whack isn't doing anything now.

Trying to cure an intermittent starting issue. Having eliminated the starter motor, the hot start relay and ignition wiring as not the problem, I've now got the steering wheel off with the intention of changing the starter switch. However, now I've got it out i recognise it as a relatively new...

Do a that means it's standard?

I feel like an idiot asking this but is this battery sealed or standard? I need to know which setting to put my charger on. It doesn't state it anywhere on the battery and searching online doesn't seem to give any advice on this model. Cheers Monkey

The good news is I've removed the steering wheel, the bad news is a hoofing chunk of Bakelite has snapped off. I have the chunk, can it be glued back in place and will the wheel still be safe to use? Cheers Monkey

I've had this frame kicking around in the garage for years and I'm fed up catching my ankle on it. I have absolutely no idea what it's worth, how old it is, who made it, or what goes on top of it. If anyone would like it please feel free to make me an offer (if that's allowed) Cheers Monkey

Cheers for the replies! I've had a hot start relay fitted for a while now, in fact replacing the first one was part of the process of elimination to get to where I am now! Do I need to ruin wires off the starter motor or just fiddle about with what's already up front?

After years of starting issues I've narrowed the problem down to a dodgy ignition switch, I can turn the key and get dash lights but when I give it a quarter turn to start the engine I get nothing. Sometimes a thump to the steering housing will work but it's too hit and miss to rely on. As a...

My rubber cab and seat surround mats are brown and some of them need replacing as they are falling to bits. I've searched and searched online and all I can find are black ones. I'm wondering if it would be possible to paint these with some sort of flexible paint like plasti-kote or something...
