Re: Plug that connects to ignition switch?

Did you purchase it, or is it salvage?

If purchased, where did you get it from?

Metal gauze hanging out of exhaust pipe

I have just been around to my camper where I store it. Not been around to it for a good 2 months. Thought I best start it and let the battery charge etc. I couldn't get it started at battery a little low. Took my car battery out of my car and used that. It turned over ok but failed to start. Thought...

When the van is going up hill or shifting into 3rd/4th, basically under strain. It feels like the engine is missing/juddering. Almost like lack of fuel! It's a su...

Re: Not starting

Another morning spent with my camper.

Traced it to a faulty ignition switch, which I fitted this time last year from Just Kampers. Took it to bits and fixed it. Used my van probably twice since fitting it originally.

Crap part!

Re: Just wondering!

What sort of water leak have you got? Coolant / Fresh Water / door or window seal? The electrics on an Autosleeper are supposed to run off of different sources. Some people tinker around and alter them, but I'm not sure it's essential. I think the only thing I would have on my wish list is to be ab...

I will have to check on that.

I have had it running once. However I can't remember the scenario. It ticks over for a few seconds and then stops.
