You need to buy a new clutch slave cylinder. If you don’t need to replace the whole thing just use the pushrod and rubber bellows from the new one. Changing the whole unit isn’t a bad job just make sure you give all the connections a clean up / wire brush and spray either plusgas or similar for a fe...

If you get a super bright torch and get into the engine bay and under the van ( front/ rear) you’ll see if there’s any blue/ pink/ white crystallisation where there’s been any leaking /spraying.

You can check where the mot was done but you’ll need the number off the v5. It could have been repaired in that time. Do you have some good photos of the repaired areas ? If do post them up in here. Have a read of the wiki at the top of the page for things to look at when buying. There’s plenty of p...

Ed/ Sarah have given up on their new engine getting fitted. They’re going to review the situation and maybe even sell the van as it is. They’ve become disillusioned with the whole sorry episode!

Tell me about it. :roll: Wow- 2 years ago!! Steve Dawson does some great work, I love following his posts.

Two different vans

Bottom one looks a bit on the pi$$.

Should be if it’s leaking from the cover. Easy to change or just whip off the cover and have a look at the diaphragm. Two sizes available- long or short.

If you have plastic pipes it’s usually the metal ends/ inserts that rot and cause leaks.
I changed mine without fully removing the tank by dropping one end and supporting it with a jack. You’ll have to reach under it to undo a couple of clips and maybe some zip ties.

New rotor arm too?
David.

3 screws undo on the side of the choke and you can move it to allow for more choke in the Winter and less in the Summer but this probablisnt your problem but handy to know.
David.

The choke’s not coming off ?
You can move the auto choke to the Summer setting to make it come off sooner or maybe the spring is damaged .
Is the choke pull down unit ok?
David

When I did mine iirc I did a search and about 2.5-3 m so I’d get a 3 m length.

Try Powerspark.
