Barry has done my T25 for the last 5 years too. He's a chain smoking legend. Like shorehambeach said, he knows these vans really well. I had my MOT done last week and as I drove past him, he shouted 'that's not getting through' so I bet him 50p it would... £300.50 later I collected my certificate :(...

you're good at this - thanks

ah great thanks.
I was looking to match the other two which need a screwdriver/coin to unscrew them. These look more practical.

where do you get them for a quid? Might even treat myself to a spare.
I mean the thing that holds the fuse that screws out.

I've managed to lose the fuse holder for my zig cf8 unit. Its the screw in type.
Does anyone know where I can get a replacement - ive searched but not turned up much - I just need the holder as opposed to the whole fuse unit.
Thanks

standard

When the van is fairly empty, I feel every tiny bump on the road. Is that normal or should I be looking to do something with the shock absorbers?
I checked the wiki

IMG_20130228_105634.jpg Leisure shops closest is the LS200 Aperture size: 450 x 155mm which is pretty darn close. If I don't need the extra ventilation, I'd rather weld in a plate and just leave the smaller flue outlet on there. Thanks for the pic link - wondering where you sourced the stainless st...

So do you mean allow air to circulate around it but not block up the back?
Nice blog btw

Thanks for replies chaps.... As^^^^ says, in mine i have no vents and my ice box still freezes, but there is air circulation into the van so to speak, the gas is correctly flued out so all fine , So just the metal tube bit angled upwards is vented on yours? As you say, they're not exactly hermetical...

If I don't power the fridge with gas and just use 12v/mains, does it still need ventilation to the outside? Its an old Electrolux RM123. There are 2 massive vent holes (can't find replacement cover to replace one that completely perished) and I'd rather they were sealed up. Would love a new Waeco on...

Cheers, that did it. Needed a bit of a thump to slide it off.
