Cheers - appreciate the help.

Right cheers that’s helpful - so did you just leave one of the connectors unattached?

Hi guys. So I’m looking for a replacement master cylinder for my T2. The bus was built October 1969 and has a master cylinder with two brake pipe connections and two separate electrical switch connections. I’m struggling to find the correct replacement part for this - has anyone replaced this...

I've got one fitted to mine and it's a million miles better than stock shifter and you can actually tell which gear you are selected no!! You mustnt have it fitted properly mate so I'd keep persevering as it's worth it.

Mods - not sure this is a legit post - no responses to queries over a fortnight ago and no replies to PM's???

Pm sent.

I'll take it please - pm sent

I had this problem and it caused blowing from the gap. It's the crappy aftermarket exhaust boxes they sell these days. In the end I bought a stainless exhaust tube from halfords and used a couple of jubilee clips to seal it properly at each end. Someone said they had used a cut down coke can...

Can Anyone recommend a good machine shop in the northeast to line bore a case? I've got a good case I'm going to do a new build on bit want it boring so I know it's solid for the build project. Want somewhere that knows about vw's and what is required etc etc. Cheers

I've just received some new silverline main bearings for my first rebuild. One of the dowel pin holes seems to be poorly drilled and is oval meaning it's doesn't sit on the dowel pin securely. I'm going to send them back but what are the best make of bearings for a rebuild? Not sure if this is...

yes ive had the same issue - it works loose every now and then - there must be a way to lock the nut but i havnt fathomed it out yet - im sure someone will have a fix

Yes I think this or something similar might do - shoddy after market exhaust causes the problem. Cheers

Thanks Bertiebus - I've got the standard clamps but they don't properly fit the gap between the exhaust and heat exchanger thingy so I'm looking for something wider - Im searching eBay now!!

It's the exhaust to heat exchanger clamp that's isn't wide enough - this one - need something wider https://www.vwheritage.com/shop/beetle/113255341A/clip-exhaust-to-heat-exchanger/?crumbStartPage=2&crumbStartRow=14" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

In good old Spennymoor. Yes I think the aftermarket exhausts are utterly rubbish in terms of fit - might use some exhaust sealer round the seals and see if that makes a difference!! :x :x

I've fitted a new exhaust to the van. Had achell of a job with those thin metal clamps that connect the exhaust to the heat riser bit. The gap is almost too big for the clamp - does anyone know if you can get wider clamps from anywhere as I think it's blowing a bit. Cheers

Sorted - was a spade connector on the starter had worked loose - thanks for all the replies. Johnny

Just pm me your phone number and will sort out Cheers

Hello there Will you pallet it up for a courier - if you will I'll take it and arrange it to be picked up? Cheers Johnny

Just gone to start the van and.......nothing. Turn the key to first position and the oil and generator lights come on. Turn it to start it and nothing - no starter click, nothing - just a click at the fuse box. Where is the best place to start with this? It was fine and running last weekend...
