Re: How does my bike rack work?

https://i.imgur.com/GCCt7Qu.jpg https://i.imgur.com/QSWXono.jpg https://i.imgur.com/eq5rAyH.jpg Perhaps this primitive stick, which I assumed was a kosh for dealing with vanphobia, is the old version of the fiamma arms? It was in the box of spares. I don’t think I would secure the bikes on with thi...

I have not tried to use it yet, as I am unsure how to best secure a bike to it…. Note that there are two chrome connectors on the tailgate too.
Any help appreciated, thanks

Re: Can anybody help explain what's going on with my 'fresh' water tank system?

https://i.imgur.com/lmQHKgd.jpg Hi, just after this disc,which I assume is a filter or non return valve?, I have a connector which has a drain valve on it. If the outside gunked up circle was originally a screw in/out plug it would have surely left an inch of stale water behind? I would undo the ho...

Re: Autosleeper water tank 1986

Thanks for the reply. I shall drop it down and see. The filler is located on the front passenger wheel arch, maybe where it joins the tank is a possible access too? Cheers.

Re: Autosleeper water tank 1986

Hi, it’s the fresh water tank, the waste water comes out of the front jacking point. We only use it for washing our hands etc, not as a drinking tap. Cheers.

https://i.imgur.com/HbMjQ9U.jpg https://i.imgur.com/5X0vcEc.jpg Hi, just went out to replace a broken connector on the under slung water tank pipe and the pipe has come out of the actual tank! I can feel the nut on the inside. If I drop the tank will there be an inspection hole in the top to put a ...

Re: Help getting started.

Take the spark plugs out, give each barrel a liberal dose. Turn the engine manually using a socket on the crank. Be sure to take the air filter off, spiders!!

Re: Limited Slip Diff

I had a Nissan with an lsd, similar symptoms. A gearbox oil change for a quality oil sorted it. Nice and smooth afterwards.

Re: fuel line to pump a loose fit

Does it say what size pipe the new fuel line is on the side? I think the Aircooled pumps are 6mm in and out. Do not use jubilee clips to tighten hoses as they don’t close the pipe in a circular manner.

Re: Water in tailgate

The grommets are where the wash wipe wiring would have passed through on posher models. Heated screens etc.
