Spinflo Mark X

I have one in my T25, it's the version incorporated into the sink.

Is it possible to take out the gas grill burner on these? I'm not getting max power from the grill, probably needs cleaning.

Re: Turning mt t25 into a 5 seater?!

I assume this is carrying passengers at speed. IMHO, every seat nowadays has to be safe, ie seat belts, nothing less. I know a previous poster said only test what they see, but lets face it unstrapped sitting on a R&R seat at speed and something happened. Lucky in mine, a previous owner had cust...

Re: oil pressure switch access

You need to remove all the bolts to do anything sensible. I was a bit concerned the first time I did mine but they came out fine. Wire brush to get of any rust first and add a bit of penetrating oil for good luck OK thanks, I thought be a straight forward job to just check the switch connection / w...

Horn location (resolved)

My horn has stopped working I can't remember last time actually used it, but was ok for last MOT, so probably last year! When I press the steering wheel, can hear a click coming from the front of the vehicle, but no actual horn sounds, I am assuming that's current is getting through and possibly the...

What toilet for a T25

Has anyone used or owned the below one. Ok a bit pricy for a bog, but it folds up quite well when not...

Re: TV Aerial for Camping

I bought one of these, and it is disappointing, either the tv in question is suffering from receiving desensitisation ( quite possible , it’s old ) or maybe I got a duff antenna I am the same Mocki, I have a old 12v camping TV (approx 2006), but it works fine with my usual antenna, though this one ...

Re: TV Aerial for Camping

I tested mine in house today (receptor on the glass window) and can't say was impressed, got a very few freeview channels, about 2 clear, rest chirping/pixeling etc. It might be better out rural away from interference, I am in Norfolk soon I'll test it out there, but will take my usual aerial in case.

Re: Holdsworth villa 3 pop top gas struts

This is an old post and sadly we are now facing the same issue. Does anyone have an update of SGS, the quality of their gas struts etc. We have searched high and low on the internet for replacement without success apart from SGS. The information we have is from a sticker on strut is: INDUSTRIAL CUS...
