Re: Steering wheel nut

Sorry I missed typed I meant to say nut not not?
Its very tight so I wanted to ensure which direction it turns so as not to damage it. I will try anti clockwise as per your suggestion.

Re: Start not start??

Hi Brian

Good to hear from my techno buddy.

My 'Volkesie' has been running sweet with just this annoying ignition thing.

If I change it does that mean a new key or can the barrels be swapped?

Thanks

Start not start??

When I put the ignition key in and turn it, occassionally it does not turn over the starter motor no click or nothing although the lights on the dash come on?

After a couple of attempts it finally connects and starts ok.

I am not a sparky any DIY ideas to rectify?

Any help appreciated

Smoking engine?

Took the camper out for a drive after been away for two weeks and started it up and plume of blue smoke came out of the exhaust. It settled down but there is still a hint of smoke coming out after driving two miles. It's a petrol engine. Any ideas?
