Tried to fit my et42 merc alloys which are 7.5 h2 by 16 and they made contact with the suspension on the ramps?!? Mine are from a w211 estate I think but look nice, be a shame to sell them
Can they fit the t25 or should I have tried to fit the wheel without it being jacked up on the ramps?!?

Just wondering if these wheels on ebay from a T4 would / could be modified to fit my t25 lowered by 45mm at front and 50mm at the rear ??? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/4-x-VW-T4-Caravelle-Transporter-15-New-Alloy-Wheels-Michelin-All-Weather-Tyres/181720355034?hlpht=true&ops=true&viphx=1&am...

Re: fumes in van
Thanks guys - found a rather long! thin hole in my n/s rear wheel arch - filled it in with fiberglass padding for now until I have time to get it welded when it's not in so much use this summer! Tailgate flush + engine cover seals look to be OK. Also found another couple of holes just behind the rea...

Re: bosch distributor connector - male 3 pin rectangle type
Haha I got it working :ok - I checked my cam phone pic and I inserted it 180 degrees out ... re-aligning to cylinder no. 1 still didn't work ... So I finally checked the hall connector wiring, and pulled off the original connectors rubber sleeve (since i originally wired by the order as they entered...

Re: fumes in van
Did anyone get to the bottom of this ?!? I get it too in my 1987 high-top water cooled 2.1 - and looking under the rear right arch last week I noticed a hole, when I look up I see the plastic vent section in the rear corner. I've also noticed a big hole in the floor behind the fridge unit - obviousl...

Re: Fitting a new 025905205af distributor - rotor arm alignment?
And it fits, the seals the correct type also (regtangular cross section as opposed to circular) .. just had to tap home with a bit of soft wood + hammer and its alignment is spot on - sorry JK you must have sent me the wrong item!

Re: bosch distributor connector - male 3 pin rectangle type
Yes I did push it home - the outside clip engaged, but I didn't use a crimper -- noted it was very hard to push the pins down inside the unit (once crimped + wired up), used a micro screwdriver to do this by pushing down on the back on the crimped housing (which just about touches the insulated edge...

Thanks for the advice Steve, will do...

Re: Fitting a new 025905205af distributor - rotor arm alignment?
See the difference in alignment between the new and original...
Could it potentially require a distributor for the original 1.9 engine as identified in the ebay item (especially if ignition coil is the original?!?) am stuck!
I will call Just Kampers in the morning to see what they say!
