AFN running issues

Evening all, My AFN converted van has a running issue, I left it at my parents house over winter and went to move it last weekend.

Westfalia poptop - flocking can you dye it?

As the title - can you dye flocking? It would like to dye the flocking in the Welty poptop roof a coup of shades darker - is it possible??

Cheers

Re: Westfalia canvas replacement

Jed, which Go westy canvas was that? They do 3 or 4 different versions from what I can see. How was the fit - it looks kind of loose in the video.

Cheers

tyre pressures with porsche wheels

Afternoon,

I have just fitted some porsche wheels to my van, I now have:

Fronts: 225/50/17
Rears 245/45/17

Now what tyre pressures do people run with tyres this size? I am assuming that the pressures will need to be lower with the increased surface area.

Cheers

Re: TDI mpg vs engine temp

I will be collecting data slowly - rather then driving slowly, as I dont use it every day. Correcting the speedo - its bang on at 62mph/100kph, but the out either side by a small amount. So how do I correct for that? but its odo we want isn't it? The only thing to check is the odo is it over reading...

Re: TDI mpg vs engine temp

its the same deal as last time brim to brim - I now have an app so I am starting to keep records of all fills, but it might be slow as its a toy and not an every day vehicle.

Re: TDI mpg vs engine temp

I have run another tank of fuel through mine now with the longer gearbox. probably 1/3rd motorway at 75-80mph, 1/3rd city, 1/3rd A roads and it returned 39.3mpg - still mighty impressed.

Re: Heated front screens

Ricky evans is the company I have found - anyone know any others? its a little disappointing to hear that they are not so good, and take a long time to heat up.

Can you quantify this statement and say compare it to your rear screen assuming its heated too?

Re: Heated front screens

Its water cooled and the heating works fine - but a heated screen would be better and make life easyer
