Sorry for the long post. I have a stock engine with Electronic Ignition and a new fuel pump after a recent failure. New oil and I have checked the oil pressue with a guage. The guage was showing 19lb on idle after driving to the guy who tested it for me which was only 2.5 miles away so the...

I have either had a dream or seen somewhere where there is a specific year that you could open the rear tailgate from the inside. Anyone know about this and where I can get one if they exist. I have a 72 Crossover I want it in.

Just as a matter of interest. Should mine be Flat or rounded. All the Wing specs state the 72 should have rounded but mine are flat. Was wondering if mine was one that was a flat from a crossover or someone added them after the van needed some new ones.

Can someone advise if the Engine lid on a 72 Crossover is different to a 72-79 Engine lid. I know some have hooks for the hinge but the ones that have hinges will they fit straight on. If not what's the actual differnce for the 72?

So one of my niggly jobs is to get the steering wheel to cancel the indicator arm. I currently have a gap of maybe 12 mm from steering wheel to support from dash. I have looked up how to do this but can't find anything anywhere. I have found a video on later models and there is a retaining Shear...

So then I have found a guy on ebay called Jon from Wakefield. He refurbs Solex Carbs. Which I like the sound of. Or it's a new EMPI carb from Heritage. Question is? What's the best. I have a standard stock 1.6 engine and the current carb is an unbranded and has a leak on the throttle bush, so...

I have managed to get the Fuel Sender out of my 72 Crossover. The reason it wasn't reading was that the Nichrome Wires had come adrift. I also don't have the sleeve/tube that the float sit within to keep it steady or protected. I am not sure if it's actually needed or not. But I am guessing that...

So I currently have a stock 1.6 Dormobile conversion. I am wanting to replace the interior with the same but want to replace it with a lighter material. I think it's currently 15 or 18mm plywood which is seriously heavy. I am looking to see what others have done to replace the wood with some...

Before I make a hole for the sender I wanted to check the guage. So here are the results, hoping anyone can advise on a solution. Ignition on - Fuel Guage reading full Brown wire off at the terminal - Fuel Guage reading empty I split the wire at the rear arch where it enters the fuel tank...

Can someone advise if there should be a plastic cover on the end to help this cancel. At the minute it's metal to metal but does t cancel. Anyone got any video. Footage or photos of a 1972 Crossover cancelling.

I thought I had fixed the horn issue. It sounds as it should when you press the button. The thing I noticed the other day when I was adjusting my shifter plate I had the keys in the ignition and it was on. I must have knocked the keys against the steering collumn and the horn sounded. I then...

I am sure I am going to answer my own question here. I have on my 1972 Crossover with one screw headlight rims, which retain the lense/main headlight. Today I took one of the rims off to investigate how much room is behind. There was some angled brackets attached to the inner rim. I take it that...

I need to replace the bushes in the rod. I really need to do it in situ as the engine and gearbox are just fine. I have a 72 crossover and I have the bent first part of the shifter rod. Was wondering if because it's bent it can be moved to come out at an andle and therefore releasing the other...

I have the opportunity to purchase a rust free older Rear Hatch Door. Mine is a Crossover and it's a different door. As far as I can see it's only the hinge holes that are different. Has anyone any experience on moving the holes to the door sits in the correct place for an old to a newish door.

Little fix that could save someone a new stalk, you could insulate the metal if concerned.

I am a bit confused. I have a 1972 Crossover and having problems lining it up correctly. No matter what I do it just kicks out. I have noticed on some vans there are guides half way up on the main opening on the van. I have the part shapped on the van they should attach to on the van but no...

Today I decided to swap the plastic guide on the middle sping hindge. I cleaned it up and made sure it was completely cleaned. So when I was cleaning the hinge I noticed that there was a stamp which had 79 on it. The actual door need some adjustment but it got me thinking. If this is a later...

Hi folks, 6 weeks in with Lizzy my 1972 crossover and still finding my way round. Electrics, adjustments and lack of sleep thinking about the next job and how I will tackle it. So great to be here and really chuffed to be back in the scene after 25 years. In need of mainly advice as I am pretty...
