High revs.

Morning! When I start the van it has really high revs, (more than usual) until the auto choke starts to kick in, (which is also longer than usual). I haven't changed anything recently?
Any help would be much appreciated. [SEE-NO-EVIL MONKEY]

Re: Oil level.

That may be the wrong engine actually! It's a 1.9 DG petrol now!

Re: Oil level.

Thanks for the info. I think ill do an oil change anyway. It was driving really rich and flat spots. I had the exhaust re-fitted with new gaskets. It drove like new, however the problem is back again! Frustrating to say the least...

Re: Oil level.

Thanks guys. It seems a bit boggy to drive too so maybe an oil change is due! It's just difficult to tell when one side shows high and the other shows low no matter how or which way I check it. I think it's due a service as we have only had it 6 months.

Oil level.

Hi, sorry for the stupid question in advance! My oil light came on and off yesterday. Upon checking the levels one side of the dip stick shows low and the other side shows above minimum?? I put it in the other way round with the same result? I obviously don't want to over fill the oil but fear there...

Side window glass

Hi, I'm after two side windows for our panelvan. One fixed for the sliding door and a slider for the other side. Are there any companies that sell these should I struggle to find some for sale elsewhere??
Thanks

Re: power loss

I had this exact issue and it was the exhaust. Replaced all the manifolds and all fixed!!

Inside roof covering.

Hello, has anybody used wallpaper or vinyl on their roofs? I don't want to carpet it and the boarding needs covering. I thought about painting it but was looking for more imagination!
By the way I mean internal roof (ceiling)

Re: choke pull down unit.

Yea thanks, being down in Dorset means they are too far. They only deal in t2 or t3s so they know there stuff!
