Oh yeah and killed the battery whilst i was doing it all :oops: :oops: :oops:

Yesterday I covered myself in waxoyl, a bit even got on the bus!! :shock:

Today I'm transferring years of muck from the engine to my clothes!!

Cool, eh???
 
After 2 years of having a knackered window winder, but having a replacement, I finally got round to fitting it. I finally have a drivers window that goes up, stays up and goes down when it's supposed to :lol:
 
took mine and filled up with petrol as i pulled in it died and at every junction too start ok from cold just wont idle when warm

i think i may be a choke issue

This was my local notts dub club (midland Aircooled collective) and the local t4/t5 group we decided to get together at the unicorn, great turn out :) I've put some pics on my thread

I have just bought a genuine westfalia pop top for 14 quid, so I scrubbed it and congratulated myself

Fired up my newly fitted propex :D I'm sitting in the bus with it on as I type this = toasty!

I did actually fit it in time for Brighton breeze but couldn't get it to fire up?

Came back from work tonight and swapped the camping gaz for calor and she sparked into life right away.
Weird :roll:

Not really, if the Camping Gaz cylinder was really cold the gas inside condenses slightly as it's a Butane/Propane mix.
Calor, being propane only, has a lower operating temperature.

Get where your coming from but the calor bottle is a blue/butane one :?

Thanks Chris and anyone else who has given sound advice to us novices
