Didn't fill oil filter

Bit school boy, but just realised that I didnt pre-fill my filter when doing the oil change this evening. Do I need to drain it and refill, or will my 2mins of running have sorted it. Fluid level is fine. Oil pressure light was on for 10secs at first start up and it took a dog walk to figure out why.

What's this pipe... Where can I get a new one?

So I might have just nipped this pipe trying (and failing) to cut out a seat belt bolt. What fluid does the pipe carry, and where can I get a new one please so that i can then take van to garage to get bolt cut out.

Oil Filler Tube fit

Can any one tell me how their T25 1.9DG oil filler tube is set up please - does the plastic extension connect to the metal filler tube by fitting inside of the metal end, or outside. The reason I ask, is that my plastic extension end fits over the metal tube so when I pour in the oil, I get oil drip...

Autohomes Kamper roof locks

Hey guys I am trying to locate the original lock housing for an Autohomes Kamper roof (front and back). Iv been putting it off for ages, but following some high winds last weekend I decided I no longer enjoy a self elevating roof and the total lack of steering that comes as a result.... so time to i...

Which connection did this go into

Fuse board problem. I dropped the fuse board to install a new aerial, when I came to put it back I noticed a wire was not connected. After a little help in finding its correct home - was it ever connected? Everything appears to work The wire is yellow and not very long (just reaches the fuse box). T...

Re: Quick seat question

How much did you pay for the covers? I got some covers for £15 and had to cut holes in them for the headrest. They definitely were not for a t25 but did look okay for about a month before they wriggled up

Re: Aerial Rust..

Finished job. Several coats of Krust, primer and lots of sanding and re-priming and sanding later... when will the rust return. This is the JK aerial. The aerial is a tad loose in the 2nd mounting further up the windscreen. Will take it out tomorrow and see if it rattles. Top tip for dropping the fu...

Re: Aerial Rust..

You guys are the best. Removed the old aerial and drilled screw out. Rust flaking off all over the place and clearly thin in one spot as a tiny hole appeared. (This is just inside of the footprint of the new aerial) Temporary fix plan is to fit new aerial and seal in place with tigerseal around the ...

Re: Aerial Rust..

I need to look upwards more. Yes there is stay further up. Im a dumb as ! Was rather hoping that this week I could just dress the rust back, krust treat, etch and paint etc (assuming that the rust is not that thin it holes). My welding belongs out of sight under the van, not on the front :oops: Migh...

Aerial Rust..

Have some rust around the base of my aerial that needs attention. Aerial is a single mount version. The screw head in the aerial has rusted and rounded so getting it out will be difficult. If I have to drill the damn thing out, will I be able to remove it the aerial or is there likely to be another ...

Re: Engine Not Firing

GOT THE VAN GOING :D :D :D :D :D :D I had taken the plastic cover / air supply off the carb to check I had fuel going in. Nice squirts when rotating throttle control. I had also taken plugs off and testing in the dark (resting on the engine body method) to check for sparks - the spark was more golde...
