I have Golf MK2 lights on my bus. Same size.
Also Land Rover Defender amongst others.

Hi. I will need to make a r&r bed platform plinth over the engine bay cover so that my bed will sit level with it. Are there any diagrams ,dimensions or designs that I could follow . I have a full width R&R bed with platform above engine cover. Please excuse my crude writing on pics. Hope t...

A friend of mine runs a 2 1 dj auto. Had issues with it cutting out. Turned out to be a blocked idle speed control valve. Are prone to blocking up.

Just a thought.

My local Asda petrol station rebranded all its unleaded pumps 2 weeks ago to E10 alongside relevant warning notices appying to pre 2011 vehicles. Assuming i am now using E10 (it does smell a bit different from exhaust) i can report no loss of power or economy. I use my bus every day with no issues....

I have a set of Golf Mk2 smoked headlights on my bus with Osram Nightbreaker bulbs fitted.

Around £80 a pair plus bulbs on Ebay.

Moral of the story here is don't buy from JK.
Just the same with Britpart for Land Rovers,
Bloody Rubbish!

Agree with above post, bought a gasless mig a couple of years ago, Varying results at first but then swapped to 0.9 mm wire. Huge improvement. I have many years of experience of Arc welding prior to the gasless unit. Practice, practice. Lots of good instructional videos on Youtube about Fluxcore wel...

I have had Corrado mirrors on my bus for the last 12 years. I have no trouble parking or reversing. If mirrors are set right they are fine.
Just my experience though. Others may disagree.

Fitment was pretty straightforward.

Replaced all my fuel lines including return last week using this .

My experience of fitting a Weber 34 DAT was fine. IMHO far superior to the Pierburg. It has been on my bus for 7 years now. 1 rebuild kit when i bought it and it hasn't missed a beat. Just returned from 120 mile round camping trip to North Wales this weekend. Sat on motorway at a steady 60mph there ...

Pretty sure its not a Westfalia as its a right hand drive. Others can correct me if i'm wrong but i'm sure all Westfalia conversions had factory fitted windows. (with the exception of double glazing). May be a Reimo conversion though.

Replaced the Pierburg on my DG motor with a 34 DAT Weber 7 years ago. I fitted a new gasket and needle valve kit. Spent a couple of days setting up the choke and tickover. Havent touched it since, starts every time, 1st turn, (daily driver) no issues at all. I personally prefer the simplicity of the...

Looks like a 32/36 Weber as fitted to many 80's Fords and also a conversion on the 2.0 CU aurcooled motor.
Not 100% sure though.

Agree with above post about replacing unit but if cash is tight you can get the dust covers here.
