I don't know if its just me but everything I do on the van takes 3 time longer than planned!
Hi,
Think you were asking where the blow off valve is BOV. From my questions through this forum, I have found it to the right hand side and just below the big air cleaner box. Well this is on our 1.6 1991 water cooled turbo diesel anyway. It looks a bit like the breather coming off the top of the cylinder head.

Just an update,
I've been working on replacing seals in g/box and engine.
I tried to remove to drive shaft oil seals and snapped my cheap seal removal tool, a bit of overkill welding fixed it and seals just popped out with some pressure.
Just reassure the wife that you have some amazing holidays to come in the van when done, and not to get too disheartened with the progress of making her ready, and safe!

All my parts come from Simon Baxter at brickwerks nowadays, you pay more but you get great service and everything fits.
This is it removed, the panel was ok to fit nut not great, both front arches seemed to have the incorrect radius making them about and inch to short, a bit of fettling and stretching and p40 (shh ) I found fitting the new plastic filler housing into the arch a right pain as it has to twist http://www.brickwerks.co.uk/shop?page=s ... ory_id=111
and lock.
Looking back I think I got the panels from jk or schofields
When you do it replace the backing ring, brickwerks do stainless ones inc screws, http://www.brickwerks.co.uk/shop?page=s ... ory_id=111
