Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)
As per other thread, I may now have a dimensionally accurate rev counter backing.
I am still very busy and any vehicular tinkering is very limited to "must do" at present. Maisie goes for MOT retest on Friday which is priority getting her sorted.

Re: usb into cigarette lighter
the current drain should be minimal, millions of people have plugin usb adapters connected to cars with permenant live aux ports and don't have issues. Modern buck converters are far more efficient than old linear voltage regulators.

Re: T3 awning 1984 transporter
yeah straight onto the gutter. if your gutters are missing the trim it will be too loose so you will need that. We had a rigid pole something that came with maisie, was allright but a bit of a "marital stessfest". but last winter got a last season Vango on ebay for a 5th of regular reta...

Re: Adjust crankshaft endfloat or full rebuild?

Re: Adjust crankshaft endfloat or full rebuild?
It's not really the cost of the parts, it's the fact there are no parts to buy. and these are not easy engines to do. You may find yourself 2K into something that is impossible to finish.
