Sorry, didn't realise it had been posted before!

I like using mineral so I would say yes to a 15w/40 mineral.

Cheers for that Kev, think I will go for the 15w40 mineral, any recommendations on manufacturer or are they all pretty much the same?

bit thin that for old hydraulic lifters.
They'll drain down like a dose of the runs with that castor oil in.

Yeah that's what im thinking now. What do you think? Change the oil again to 15w40?

Hi all. Right, I started my 2.1dj up today as its not been run for a week or so. I now have a loud knocking / tapping which seems to be on the right hand side. I did an oil change about 3 weeks ago and put new 5w40 fully synthetic oil in and a new oil filter. The old oil was black as coal so needed ...

Hi all. I have found a really good source for all things rubber!! Window seals and door seals of course! I have just replaced some of my window seals and found this company to be spot on. Customer service is spot on. You can also request free samples and a catalogue if your not too sure what size / ...

Yep, it's true, they really don't like change! When I bought my DJ a year ago the clutch went on me on my drive home from the seller!

Hi, I am also about to embark on the same journey! Been looking at this place on the web http://www.pbplywood.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; they also do veneered moisture resistant MDF and MFC (melamine faced chipboard). Full cutting and cnc and a good range of styl...

Just a bit of advice for anyone who may have an air leak on their DJ. My van was very under powered, popping in air inlet hose and felt like vanagon syndrome. I renewed the vacuum hoses on the dizzy, no joy, I then renewed the gasket seal that fits between the air throttle housing and the chamber. B...

The same garage that changed the tank also fitted the fuel pump and supposedly renewed the fuel lines, as my van is a 2.1 DJ with injection I am deffo going to renew all lines myself so I know they are safe! Another little job for the weekend, oh well, its all good fun

Hi all. A few days ago we set off to Edinburgh for a few days. We set off and called at the local petrol station to fill up. I filled her up to the top when someone shouted to me that fuel was pouring out from underneath. This was the first time I had filled her up to the top for a long journey so h...

one 2 way consumer unit with 30ma 63Amp 240v incomer You sure, they are never more than 25A normally 16A Yes mate. You tend to find the 63Amp RCD is a bit cheaper and is less prone to nuisance tripping. It doesn't really make a difference so long as your RCD is rated above the incoming design curre...
