Club 80-90 Forums

I am having the same issue with ours. I've changed the solenoid and the spade connectors and it's still cutting out. However, I am now thinking there is a fault in the wire as I get a click from cold but not a click once the van has been running- starts and idles fine from cold- it's when it's warme...

Hi everybody, go easy on me please I'm still learning :-) We have a 1983 1.9 watercooled t25, automatic. I am struggling to get the van to idle consistantly when it's warm-and it cuts out- being an automatic it's quite tricky to keep the revs up to keep it going or get it off the road as I'm sure yo...

Hi, thanks alot for the replies folks, I should have my multi metre very soon and will test the fuse and the relay. Also gonna have a further inspection of the earths-I'll have a look at the switches too now, thanks very much for the advice. I know I'm unlucky but the two at the same time?? Surely i...

I don't have one, but I can borrow one from a mate. Thanks for the reply, I was thinking the same with both deciding not to work at the same time.

Hi everyone, I've only posted on here a couple of times so go easy on me please lol! We have a 1983 Devon 1.9 automatic and all of a sudden the heater / blower stopped working, the van also has a blower in the rear under the rock and roll bed- this also has stopped working. Both are controlled by se...

Thanks- i didnt think it would be difficult,until all the different opinions started to confuse me a bit... I know its Dexron that i should be putting in but wanted to check that the stuff i had was maybe usable for the job

cheers

Thanks Aiden, i have just phoned them-, they advised me to not use it and opt for Dexron 2 instead, growing tired and a bit confused of this now...and paranoid of bursting the box...

Hi Folks, was wondering if someone could give me some advice regarding ATF for my bus. Im renewing the gasket on the automatic gearbox as its leaky and want to top up with the right fluid. I have a 5l can of ATF MV in the garage-it has GM D2 AND D3 on it-will this be usable? will get some plain Dexr...

Hi Folks, i spent the weekend cleaning all the connections on the starter and the earth cable, brushed them all back to the bare metal and greased them up. Van seems to be starting better after a run. A big thanks to you guys .................................now on to the other issues!!! lol cheers B

well thats that eliminated then....will do a better inspection on all the connections..

cheers

fab! i will get my detail filled in..thats interesting regarding the bush,..everyday is a school day

could the starter may be just on its way out then?....had another gander at the connections today and maybe a clean wouldnt go a miss.

thanks, i'll play it by ear so to speak, our t25 is an automatic and it looks like buying a replacement starter motor and bush could be a bit tricky, all the ones i looked at online specifically say that they are not for autos...?? i found one i think it was on brickwerks but it was considerably pri...

yeah im not that bothered either-was just concerned that it might get worse, at present she always starts eventually and really well when cold.
