I was tempted with this amazing offer from Alan Schofield.According to reply number 1 this is the one to go for by Vewib. https://alanhschofield.com/ourparts/prod_1747800-Front-Screen-Seal-6879-Top-Quality-German-211845121D.html

Windscreen seal for baywindow buses range in price from £26 to £68. I don't want to waste money but is the £68 "TOP QUALITY"version worth it.

How many litres of Waxoyl required to cover underside and cavities?

Apologies that image is not from Bentley but one I found on line.

Ok. Haynes states on page 123 paragraph 8 that the smaller tab fits in He adjuster.! Bentley has resolved the confusion with a very clear image.Thanks All.

This is how they came of

Had my front drums of for the first time and Think the shoes may of been fitted wrong way round Though the brakes were operating reasonably could you please confirm Which end fits in the cylinder and which fits in the adjuster.Thanks

My RHD bus was first registered July 69. It has a small brake fluid reservoir in front of the pedal cluster. Before I remove he belly ban could anyone please inform me what type of master cylinder I may have. Thanks

Matty74.Thank you for confirming the results of my research.That is exactly what I intend to do. My engine is in a very good condition and pulls strong and I've had no issues whilst running the 009 in the 3k I've driven it but I want to rule out any possibility of overheating. Could you point me...

It looks ok but I want to stick with points.

I have a 009 on my 1584 single port with stock carburettor and crank pulley. Still can't understand how to set the ignition timing.Any simple explanation would be appreciated.

Thank you.You have answered my questions.All the best

My clutch has started to slip on my 69 SP.It has been fully adjusted out.It could well be the original part in there since manufacture. Once I have removed the engine and discovered the cause I only want to replace the parts that need replacing and not necessarily a whole clutch assembly.Not...

Evening.Ive replaced a few clutches on air cooled VWs in the past but now I think I'll pay to have it done.69 bay single port. Any recommendations in the Brighton area.What should I expect to pay?.Cheers

The underside of my 69 bus is in very good order and was waxoyled about four years ago.I plan to have the underside redone soon.There are a couple of very small areas that have started to deteriorate.(see photos)How shall I stop the rot.Clean,paint then waxoyl or just Waxoyl. I also have a urge...
