Re: Dead in the water... all help appreciated!

Has the fuel pump been checked for delivering fuel to the carb? Presuming it is a mechanical one running off the engine cam.

Re: Water jet hose driver side fell though :( help

I replaced my nozzles with the 3 jet option sometime back and nearly lost the hose inside the van. I wonder if this does happen can you feed the new hose through the nozzle hole back to the pump and reservoir without removing the dash, even if it takes a different route.

Re: Water ingress in cab

Re: Front number plate location

I think explanations and instructions are drafted sometimes with the author thinking that the readers are all technicians. Thankfully forums like ours break it down to a more understandable explanation.

Re: Front number plate location

Thanjs Cliff, read the link but confused as to the description of the plate being in a vertical position. If it said horizontal it would make more sense, I must be getting my geometry wrong.🤔

Front number plate location

Like most if not all, my front number plate is fitted to the front of the bumper. Which makes it vulnerable to damage if you get a bit to close to an object or when stepping on the bumper to get access to elevating roof. Is it possible to fit the number plate below the bumper and are special bracket...

Re: Radiator only works on full speed

Re: Historic MOT criteria

Still in process of doing mine, but nothing sent off yet. When I contacted DVLA the lady I spoke to said to write Historic in the tax class section on the V5C.

Re: Historic MOT criteria

I don't think working from home helps, in an office environment, information can be exchanged easier.
