Many thanks - will suggest the compressed air. Cheers

On going problem with my 1.9 petrol, water cooled 1988 camper. Fitted with a pierburg carb, when its running on choke whilst running fast - no problem at all, once off the choke it is very very hesitant, very flat and always needing a lot of throttle to pull away. The carb has been dismantled and I'...

Many thanks - looks like a lot of work

I've bought a set of AMG 18" Monoblock wheels for my camper, rear tyres 265/35/18, front 235/40/18. Just fitted longer wheel studs for the wheels however when you open the sliding door it rubbs against the wheel rim (this without the tyres on) is there any adjustment on the door ?? & how do...

Unfortunatly yet again I am experiencing some problems with the running of my 1.9 petrol, - my camper has been converted from the 1.9 fuel injection system to carburettor due to endless problems had year after year. My camper is reliable now but not running very smooth. It has a pierburg 2E on it no...

The fuel pump was changed from electric fuel pump to mechanical fuel pump when converted from the injection to carb, thanks for your help

My camper use to be 1.9 petrol injection however converted to carb after many many years of unreliability problems. Just prior to the conversion the fuel tank was replaced as it had been thought the old fuel tank was corroded and may have been causing a few problems, I was told the fuel tank for an ...

Think it was electric whilst the injection system was on it but now its mechanical. My camper had a new fuel tank whilst still with the fuel injection about three years ago - I recall the VW garage at the time saying they had difficulty getting that particular tank ?? Many thanks

In March 2011 a local garage converted my 1.9 petrol (water cooled) from fuel injection to a pierburg carburettor - this was after ten years of intermittant problems with the injection system and a whole amount of money trying to get it sorted. Thankfully since the pierburg has been fitted and conve...

Have done three trips over fairly recent years (Dover / Calais), we also had a trailer attached and did get out of peak ferry times but nothing too severe honest. Dont think we pair more that £70.00 return on any of the trips. We did pay a few quid extra one year as we got to Dover ealier than plann...

Hi Paul, glad to have come across your decals info, sadly mine are on the way out I think particularly the white faded effect above the windscreen. The remaining decals on mine are all gold - any chance you have any gold decals left?
Many thanks
Simon

Many many thanks for the information

Best wishes Simon

Finally my camper is back on the road having been converted from a very unreliable fuel injection system to pierburg carb set up. Whilst my van is now running though can't say it is running smoothly, my van pulls fine when pulling away but isn't smooth at all when trying to maintain a speed. Does an...
