Had a look at the photos i took of my 85 westy when i took the dash out cannot see i have that wire? Is it not something maybe to do with the speakers in the rear in the panel above the rock and roll bed?? Do not think it would be the eber. I removed my ever off the van completely last week to take ...

I live in France and it varies widely from region to region, i would suggest first you see what you want, eg do you have kids and want beaches for the kids? So stick coastal or paris for parc asterix or euro disney to keep them happy. Or surfing the southwest Biarritz, hossegor. Like cities maybe Pa...

Been to corsica many times as used to work in tourism for a camping company, so yes there are plenty of campsites all over, however i find the south of the island prettier.

You would be surprised being next to another camper or caravan with a heater on pumping out dodgy CO through it flue or exhaust could affect you possibly and as some find out to there peril eg death a BBQ Also produces CO and so e people when wet try to BBQ inside a tent or something to keep dry or ...

Just be careful if it is carbon monoxide it is deadly. However you need to ensure you have read the detectors instructions clearly and make sure it is correctly placed eg not to close to the hob and grill and correct height etc. The hon and grill will produce some CO but your van should have suffici...

Not sure if it helps, i just got my eber going again after it not working for years, was a broken wire inside the eber. Anyhow mine is a diesel D2L version and once i got it going mine also smoked a lot. I left it running for around half an hour and seemed to sort the problem. May be mine was un-bur...

Just want like me an idiots guide to how easy to change thus what you have to do to each engine ...

Cheers oldie thanks for the advice, will give it a blast on full for a while. Will wait until a bit quieter as in France i have to do it on the village car park no private drive or garden. Hence if i go for it for hours bet the fire brigade will turn up lol. Will do when quiet or at night and hopefu...

To me I live in France and it looks like something from a sports shop called decathlon. Think there are some in England now? We have a table jus like that and it folds in half to store away. However we just use normal folding canvas chairs. I do remember though when we bought ours you could also buy...

Got the eber back together and on the van again and it now seems to be running just fine, seemed to be just these broken cables thank god. Only issue now it is smoking a lot out of the exhaust, not sure if this is bad glow plug as was a bit sooty. Will try running it for a while as seems to run fine...

Hi again already posted for an issue with the diesel D2L eberspacher i have on my 85 westy. The original problem was when i put it on heating it did nothing apart from flash both red a green LEDs on the control. However on cooling fan alone worked fine. Having just passed its french control techniqu...

Would ...
