Club 80-90 Forums

cheers for the reply, i will check out what you have said, would the fan work so well when it does work if it was the brushes though? is there any other 'common' problems as this van seems to suffer with every common problem under the sun, i have checked the wiki but it doesnt say a lot about it. ch...

hi everyone, Ive had a problem with my vans heater blower since ive had it. Basically, it doesnt work all the time, its more often not working than does work. Ive changed the actual switch behind the little heater control panel as the old one seemed to have a lot of play in the little spindle (where...

yeah 20 and 21 is right,
original ones were 16 inch i think but dont seem to cover enough of the screen,

cheers fella's
this is what i wanted to hear,
its just that there seem to be a lot of threads in technical about over heating and the reason i want to change my engine is for something more reliable,

hi all, right, ive recently bought a van and after mulling through the different information ive decided to go for the AAZ conversion, mainly because i HAD heard good things about it and how it makes the type 25 more useable, and because ive got a lot if not all parts to do the conversion easily (bu...

ive emailed you mate, let me know they came through ok,
cheers

hi mate,
got some pics of the rake on the van with -70mm avo's on,
pm your email address and i'll send them,

no worries. you can get proper sockets to undo these but i think they are quite expensive, one thing i will say though is, try and get the plug and wire through the whole on the end of a closed spanner rather than use the open end of the spanner because these are good at 'rounding' off, leaving you ...

[/quote] :ok and remember this is what 80-90 is about mate .. helping each other ,tomorrow you will be able to help someone with something :ok[/quote] i know mate, and i appreciate it, i'd be lost without this place and the brickyard, i tend to do more lurking on the brickyard than posting but both ...

it's a lamba sensor, god knows how to remove it,
i think you find the other end where it plugs into loom, undo it there, pull the wires down and then unscrew the sensor, make sure you dont lose the sealing washer when you take sensor off,

right then, just been out to the van, used cold start and waited for glow plug lights to go out, (which they hadnt after about 15 seconds so i started it anyway) it started on the button first go and only a little puff of smoke out the back (looked grey/black) no horrible misfiring like it normally ...

right ive had a think and i 'think' i have decided to do pretty much what t'onion said, i'm going to get an exhaust sorted, try and find someone in the west mids who can adjust the tappets for me because theyve probably never been done, and drive it whilst looking for an AAZ engine as i have most/al...

no, it never sinks to the floor, just feels a bit poor in actual stopping the bus, not really bad though, what i mean is the brakes arent really sharp, i think it is more than likely that its been standing a bit, another thing ive got on my list of stuff to do when engine problem sorted, strip down ...

hi mate, it rides alright unless you hit a big old hump in the road or a pothole but other than that its not too bad, no photo's as of yet but i can get you a couple tomorrow if i get chance, its on standard wheels which i'm hoping to have painted and some nice hubcaps put on but it'll all have to w...

could be that the oil pump is on its way out , dirty job but not a hard one , search LHD posts ,he did his a few months ago , could be a sensor playing up or wiring breaking down ... daft question are your brakes good ? hi, yeah the brakes are 'ok', not good......just ok. the van had been standing ...
