Re: North Devon Carparks to allow overnighting

Thats always the frustrating thing isn't it - if this doesn't work out it will be because of a very small selfish minority of campervaners/motorhomers who abuse the spirit in which it is designed and leave the council feeling its just not worth the effort.

Re: 2.0 CU Fuel Pump Replacement

Thanks for the tips. I should have mention that I already changed the fuel filter. I'll try and take the pump out in the next few days. How do I manually operate the pump to get it working again?
