Was wondering if a Hot start relay will work any ideas on this anyone?

I will give a try next time im in the van
Thanks for the advice

Van starts easy when cold however when it has warmed it has trouble re-starting up, the starter motor turns the engine no problem it does start eventually
But now i am a bit concerned its not going start up at all when i stop for fuel in the future
Any advice would be appreciated

251 411 041 C has to be used with matching clamp 251 411 063 A 1984 model on, your van being a 83 will have the earlier clamp 251 411 063 VW changed the clamp and the bush chassis E-145 000 onwards I know i have the earlier clamp with 2 bolts however i still can not find the part number or a pair o...

I had a similar problem. Early 1983 wbx 1.9. I now need to get some 19" as you can see the one's they sent are miles smaller and were pretty loose when the clamp was secured. If your links are cranked the bar will be 19" i think. https://club8090.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=16619...

Yes cranked links ,your pic of the 2 is exactly the problem ive got much smaller overall when measured with vernier calipers i have 2 bolts on my clamp also just baffled now as what ones to order as the part number is correct

Fitted new meyle anti roll bushes today however they have a have 3-4mm open slot in them with the clamp tight , the part number is 251 411 041 C which says should fit 21mm roll bar
my roll bar is 21mm these dont look right im thinking these are for 19mm roll bar ?

I did not fancy welding the tank there was about 4 pin holes but when i poked into them with a screwdriver they opened up to about 3-4mm for the sake of a couple of hundred £££'s would rather keep my eyebrows lol

Got it cheers

Bigherb are you saying i should buy the the tank with the 48mm filler hole or should i still get the tank with 68mm filler hole and buy the adaptor rubber seal and use the the plastic filler pipe ?

Removed the fuel tank today to do the breather pipes on inspection found a few pin holes on the top middle ,so the tank needs replacing however looked on on well known site and noticed it says (Please Note: The filler neck on this tank is slightly out to the original spec, and will require careful p...

Thanks for the info
