It's just the Vege logo.

Also, I try and avoid bleeding brakes by pressing the pedal, I simply gravity blead brakes with very little issue. Trouble can be that the piston(s) in the master cylinder, in normal operation only use a small portion of the master cylinder bore and that keeps them clean. You open a bleed nipple and...

Please also see the orientation of the brake adjust bar and how it connects to the brake shoe with the hand brake lever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i4cKXA3Bm0 We often saw these on 180° out and usually done by folks that should know better. Mess that up and you'll end up with a poor handbrake,...

Yeah when I changed rear wheel cylinders, shoes and drums I bled the rear cylinders with a pressure bleeder at 12psi, adjusted the new shoes so the rear drums were dragging (using a bar to turn the drum on the rear studs), got in the van and applied the brakes several times and held for 10 seconds ...

I never had much joy with those carburettors.

Buy a British standard type 100.
Also buy a smart charger and leave it pliugged in when the van is not in use.
Batteries don't like being left to go flat.

I'm not sure if you have driven a T3 (or any vehicle for that matter) with LED headlamps but I do struggle with them. I put some of the Trucklight 7" ones in my syncro, soon took them out, the sharp cut off that  the beam pattern provides made driving difficult, at least with a round headlamp t...

The seal kit was originally made by ZF, whom made the steering rack. We used to have the ZF kit. The ZF kit is now obsolete. We then bought them from Classic parts, same contents, same bag, same marking, same thing. They then went obsolete from VW Classic parts so we now buy them from JP group. A fe...
