Perfect, thanks again.

Thanks Steve, is it better to blank it off then or have it connected?
I am going to be fitting this engine into my van which currently has a DF fitted if that makes any difference.

Evening all

On a 1900 DG engine where do the 2 vacuum lines go to from the base of the carb please?
I can see that one goes to the distributor vac advance but not sure where the other should go.

Thanks Andy

When I put one in my van about 10 years ago I got a standard dash switch for a heated rear screen and fitted it using some piggy back connectors at the radiator switch (fitted in original rubber boot) and some 2 core cable (so double insulated too). Super simple and all looks original with no need t...

Hi all

I need to recover the rear seat lower cushion in my camper and would like to try get some original style material. Does anyone know where I might be able to get something to match as I don’t want to retrim the whole van?

Many thanks in advance
Andy.

Thanks guy's, it looks an impressive bit of kit but just not for this application perhaps. Don't think I'll bother with it to be honest but its from my wife's work and I think they kind of want us to give it a test. Suppose I could just use to evaluate it for them and then switch over to gas when it...

I can run it on gas and have leisure battery for other stuff but would just like to know from more kno...

It’s normally a stud fitted to the carb so you might find a part number if you look at the carb diagram but a normal bolt would work just as well I would think.
Haven’t got one to measure but I would guess at about 25-30mm long.

You’ve probably found it by now but just read your post.
The thermostat on these engines is at the water pump so the same area as the temp sender.

Can I ask what colour you painted your bumpers please as I need to do mine and like the look of yours. Thanks in advance

That is some lovely work silverbullet.

How do you pick up the centre of the broken stud so accurately?

That’s excellent, thanks very much.

Evening guys

What would the original colour of the steel bumpers been on my 1984 camper. They are black but would they have been gloss as original?

Thanks Andy
