Managed to get the van booked in, just so happens my friend can do at his garage, he's trained by Morgan so it's in safe hands :) I just need to find a seal to replace the knackered one, I think this is were my water leak is coming from? Looking a round JK have a seal, but it's £270!! Anyone know wh...
Hi all, Just gone to pop the top on my T25 Autosleeper, mainly to give it an opportunity to air, however due to all the rain and dampness we've had over the past 2months the interior of it is very damp and back section has rotted off, so when extending it its just fallen apart. :roll: I would like t...
When you're standing looking at the choke flaps, push the throttle bar forward a smidge, and then try to move the flap. Moving the throttle bar should un-latch the chokes so you can move them both easily with your finger. When the ignition is switched on there is a 12V supply to each choke body ( a...
Just repeated my steps, van runs but only when throttle is open. Still chucking burnt excess out the back - but not as bad as before... I've noticed that the carb on the right (when looking above from in side i.e. On the passenger side) the butterfly flap doesn't move at all? It is stuck in the clos...
"The conventional remedy on a carbureted engine is to steadily hold the throttle wide open (full throttle) while cranking (starting) the engine. This permits the maximum flow of air through the engine, flushing the excess fuel out the exhaust"
Well all plugs out, cleaned and regapped. No.3 was pretty wet on the end, so I think this is the cylinder that is flooded. I couldn't check the spark on all as the wife has buggered off with the kids so I working on my own.....is there a trick around this? Cut a long story short I am still at square...
I am going to attack this today and my thoughts are to replace the spark plugs, whilst I get the old ones out. Also I've realised I have no tools to do this... :roll: Also looking at the wiki I see it states "2.0 eng cu cv 79-82 NGK B6ES" for mine as a reference. Only halfrauds is availabl...
Don't panic just yet. If it's stinking of fuel, one or more of the plugs isn't firing. By turning the engine over without it firing you've managed to flood it and the "oil" out the exhaust is the petrol washing the carbon & oil out from the cylinder(s). Take the plugs out, clean &...
Hi all, I am having a slight issue with our van (1982 Aircooled 2ltr). I ran the van around for an hour or so on Boxing Day after it was stood for a couple weeks, all was fine, it started and drove absolutely great. Today I moved the van so I could clean it, I left it running for a while whilst I go...
