Interesting! Wonder if the Ribbon got damaged whilst it sat around. How could I test this? And if it's duffed, what would the fix be?

Re: Won't start - No fuel supply? Any suggestions?

Have you measured the push rod length(100mm) and tested the pump manually like I suggested on your Facebook post :ok David. Not yet! It's on the list for the weekend. Was hoping there would be something easier, lol  :D  Thanks! Easy to do just a couple of nuts to undo the pump. The pushrod is under...

Re: Won't start - No fuel supply? Any suggestions?

Petrol 1.9 have mechanical pump so no electrics should affect it However, make sure you are getting power to the fuel cut off solenoid in the carb , should be a black wire and with ignition on you should hear it clicking the solenoid as you remove and reattach the wire ? Check the "x" rel...

Won't start - No fuel supply? Any suggestions?

Hi all, Took the dash apart to replace my blower motor & heater valve and now she won't start! Not sure if it's in relation to that or if it's a coincidence, though. Would love your help. She turns over but no life. It appears to be a problem with petrol getting to the carb as we tested pouring ...

Heater control cables bent - what to do?!

Hey all, I've managed to bend the heater control cables whilst switching out our blower motor. 1/3 of them is perfect but the one that goes down under the cab is bent and so it the one that runs through the cable tie to the vent at bottom. I've tried searching for new cables online, but can't seem t...

Re: Blower Motor Plug Numbers?

All sorted in the end! 

Turned out to be an old rusty earth connection. Once I had tidied it up it sprung into life. 

Thanks again!

Thanks both! much appreciated.

Kitchen unit & cupbaords

Hey all, Been absent here as our T25 was out at the fabricator. Now she's back, stripped out and has passed her MOT - woo! Now we begin the job of rebuilding the interior from scratch. We kept none of the original units. Picture of inside: https://ibb.co/CVL6Ldv What's the easiest/lowest cost option...

Heat exchanger to air filter?

Hi everyone, I can't seem to find any information about this online or in the Haynes book, so I'm hoping you can help.  I've got a 1987 1.9 petrol DG engine. RHD. Taking a look at the pics: Should anything be attached to this? https://i.ibb.co/hgsT0xH/IMG-1019.png On the other one, there's a (knacke...
