    Oil light slow to turn off from cold

    Thanks to all you guys for the advice, It would seem that the wire from the pressure switch to the dash is the cause of the issue. I removed the pressure switch and wire to the coil and a good amount of oil came out when the engine was turned over, I then replaced the switch and borrowed a test...

    Oil light slow to turn off from cold

    A couple of people have said it sounds fine don't worry about it...... Can't accept that and defeats the object of me having the camper and wanting to learn how to fix and maintain it, it's still early days for me so my practical skill are limited but I intend to work through all the ideas above...

    Oil light slow to turn off from cold

    Evening all. I've been trying to understand what could be causing my oil light to stay on and after googling, searching this forum and looking through the various manuals I'm non the wiser.

    Curtain tie backs

    The original tie backs ( well on my westy) are attached to the van on one end of the strip with the popper and screw and then the popper already on the tieback then goes round the curtain and fixes on to the popper you have attached to the van.......hope that makes sense. Good luck.

    Ignition removal help

    Hi Des, Yes you are right about the postage, has cost me £8 each time. When it passed its MOT in mid August I honestly thought we would get away in it before the summer was over, roll on next summer :)

    Just sent off my registration documents

    Have just phoned DVLA as now 3 weeks since I sent my documents off, been told that they are processed and returned 14 days after the requested registration date, I put 1st of September as seemed logical but in hindsight should have put 1st August. Should have back by 14th. :)

    Hello from a newbie owner

    The inside painted with a brush and multi surface paint, the outside will be sprayed once I have prepared the front hinged pop top, though I would practice my skill on the least important bit, I'm happy with the results for a 1st attempt so hope I can get even better results on the other parts...
