Yes,the "translation robots" create often new funny languages. I have a disassembling/assembling (?) instructions of my bikes gearbox "robot translated" from russian to french,and then to finnish. The result is absolutely bizarre,it looks like a dadaistic poem,but still it is,sur...

What I feel about my bike could be described by these poetic words: Sometimes a troublemaker,allways a heartbreaker... A correction to my "poetic words": I realized the word "heartbreaker" has a negative attitude in english: breaker of hearts, a traitor. If you translate "h...

Does the starter motor run rapidly (normally) or is it slow? When it comes older and bearings come loose,the stator starts to toutch the rotor,and the whole system comes lazy. This thing happend to me some year ago,I could barely get the engine running. I changed the st.motor and everything was ok a...

I think the solution is found in this v-belt case,thanks! The v-belt question came to my mind after a visit to a spare part shop. I had to get a new waterpump,but only pump with a 30mm center is available today,in this whole land. My wheel has a 40mm middle hole. So the pump they were offering was a...

Does the engine run at all? If the head has sepereted (and how much separated?) what about the timing of the fuel pump and the head cam,...can you get these things adjusted? Is there any car service for T25:s,somebody who can do the head gasket change and head cam & pump timing? Its better to ge...

It would be quite hard to make a questionaire of this case,start asking from every T25-owner I see: "Hello! I beg your pardon,but... how many v-belt wheels do you have in your waterpump?" Maybe its better to find an old monteur who has fiddled with these T25 engines for two or three decade...

In my (and yours?) T25 the filler plug (and the drain plug) is cone-shaped,so if you twist it tight enough,it does not need a copperslip.

Hello! Thanks! Yes,you´re right. I forgot my profile but now it´s filled in. The E-mail adress must be somewhere there too. I live in deep contryside of eastern Finland,in wide Saimaa lake district. I have a VW T25 (T3) Transporter 1,7 D (KY-motor) m.1990,dark blue with windows allaround,and a russi...

You think I´m a virus,I guess.

Is there any knowhow about this case,please?

HELLO! My first question in your forum: My previous T3 (1,6 D -82) had a w-pump with two v-belts,first running from the crankshaft to the pump,and second belt to the generator. The pump had two pulleys,smaller one in two-parts with adjustment plates between. When this T3 ran to its end,I found anoth...
