Re: MPG of a 2l Aircooled compared to a 1.9l watercooled?

My old bay 1700 was not great, 20's if lucky. I know a few bay 1600TP with a decent carb setup pushing mid 20's! Heating, speed fair point But you can't beat the sound of an Aircooled

Earthing when using leccy hookup?

Lo Guys, Had a situation the other night round my inlaws where we wanted to hookup up our westy camper to the mains for a bit of heat. Father inlaw asked us would the camper be OK on a house that is grounded on a PME system rather than a T & T system commonly used on campsites? I didn't have a a...

Just checked out my bus and the fuse box only goes up to 22, so would imagine the later buses had more fuses ? Mine is a 89 westy joker.

take care,

Central locking fuse?

Lo Guys,

By any chance does the central locking have its own fuse? If it does it would be great and prevent me having to take the door apart again for the time being. Sorry don't have any manuals at home :(

Cheers,

I am having a hell of a job getting my mirror sorted. It was flapping around and after taking the bottom off I found the nut and other bits hanging about. Not very easy trying to get it to screw back on at all, some much so I haven't done it yet! Will try again in the morning before we head off to c...

Westy water filler cap

Lo Guys, Went to use my water filler cap on the westy for the first time and it came off in my hand :( Looks like the cap has come off with the locking ring inside the fitting.
