Insurance is a scam. You will never be “better off” from a payout thrugh them. Bite the bullet, big boy pants on and get it repaired from your own pocket.

Tried the thump, my thumps obviously weren’t hard enough. So a bit of 2x2 under the tank and lowered the van on the jack… [emoji1787]

All sorted now.

Hey all, been reading up on this and I’ve got myself more confused than ever. So long story short inherited someone else’s bodge of a conversion. Slowly righting the many wrongs. Now I’m looking at the exhaust. Its current abomination is a mix of "pooh" welds, three silencers, hangers all ...

Fortunately a new pressure switch fixed the issue, always plan for the worst and hope for the best worked out in this case!

So my question about if there is anyway of testing oil is flowing as it should is “no”.
Not without an oil pressure guage, which I don’t have.

Is there a way to check my oil system is doing what it should be doing? I only ask as my oil pressure light is now illuminating. Comes on with ignition, briefly goes off when starting then comes back and stays on. It’s a 1y engine and I did not do the conversion myself. The dipstick says it’s got oi...

Yeah, that worked.

Thanks for that! I guess I was calamatising that one!

Hi all, Problem with my wipers, motor is running smoothly, but the wipers “twitch” but don’t move. If I try and move the wipers by hand they both move freely and independent of each other. I guess something has become loose somewhere. Access to the mechanism looks like a royal PITA, any tips? Sent f...

Well I took off my tank breathers to replace all lines, paint the arch and general clean up. Went to put them back on. Stumped! How do I do it? If I put the “lump in the hole” the bolt hole is no where near lining up. If I put the bolt through the hole first, I can’t push the other end up! What’s th...

Loving watching this progress. I purchased a similar thing from slaughter house customs. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20250705/eb9e4be0110be63222ae304a186181e1.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20250705/2edb700374808b18d05ab4ae0701908e.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20250705/482a0ae8308...

I’ve seen these on eBay, are they what you’re looking for?

I’ll have a look when I’m next at it.

Ah, who knows, definitely not going to work anyways. Put the old one back on after a coat of paint. Changed the bush while I was there. Could have been a petrol from factory, I don’t know its history. I didn’t do the engine conversion. It does have petrol clocks, and I welded in a diesel battery tra...
