Re: SA 2.5I steering rack boot

Both my sa racks are the same as any European van. Looks like yours has a typical sa bodge done to keep it going.

Re: DJ ignition timing

The idle problem is only with one of the vac lines to the fuel regulator disconnected. The throttle body is a billet go westy one that has about 3000km on it.
I may have got to the bottom of it now I think. Thanks.

They are standard south African head lights grille and spots.
Head lights are same as European Van's.

Re: Big Bang Theory: Oettinger 2500E rebuild

The kind of service you don't normally get anywhere! Thanks again for giving everything up at short notice to sort it out. I've got a few miles on it now and it's a serious difference over the old standard 2.1. I just need some time to get camping in it now. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190623...

Re: The T3200E thread

That is rare, are there many examples of the four cylinder? I've tried the usual Google searches but they never came back with much.

It is a blanket so it would be no use for tinware.
