Nobody is going to build you a decent wbx engine for less than £4k without a lot of recycling.

Re: T25 Trailing Arm Perch Plate

WHS ^^^

Its thick steel, so a Fisher-Price welder won't have the amperage to deliver a decent weld.

They should be plug welded too or at the very least stitched on around the perimeter with inch long welds.

Re: Replacement for Avon Supervan A4-75 tyres?

Judging by this listing and the disclaimer, your tyres are ancient and all need replacing.

Whats the date code on the sidewall?

Thats useful, thanks. I also need a manual for the caravan itself, it seems that Swift (the company) run the owners club (paid) and jealously guard the archive for manuals :(

Re: Another 3-way fridge problem

I need to locate a manual for it, but I am not getting mixed up with the Swift Owners Club (shudder) or pay money just to download one.

Re: Another 3-way fridge problem

It does tow nicely, very stable with the Al-Ko damped hitch. I have only just discovered that the water tank is full...which could explain the mpg when we collected it the other week, although 23-24 isnt bad for that combination as the Sprinter won't break 30mpg empty anyway. I have no idea what the...

Re: Another 3-way fridge problem

Re: Another 3-way fridge problem

PS I won't be towing it with the syncro, for full pikey effect the Sprinter does what it does best.

14+ metres and 4 tonnes at the kerb!

Another 3-way fridge problem

The control knob (far right hand side) won't push in to allow it to turn, so I presume that its seized. Where to start? The i...
