EBER IS SORTED!!!!!!!
Cleaned my gauze, and i mean it was scrubbed like new and it seemed to make a little differance but not massivly. While i was doing this i noticed that my hot air outlet pipe had been ovaled slightly due to summit falling on it while i been thrashing around the rural irish backroads, so i disconnected it and the heater would cracnk up to number 3, so i thought i was onto somthing here and removed all my vent piping from the heater and would you know it, ran on boost for nearly 2 hours before i started to become dizzy with the heat and had to turn it down(i know i could of opened a window but thats just a waste of my fuel!!). The pipes wernt crushed, but just had a tiny bit of mis-shapement to them. Have made them circular again now and removed any tight turns within them as i had another mail from my local eber man back home telling me could be that. Apparently my symptoms were classic overheating symptoms which point to only 1 thing, throughflow of air. So ringo check ya pipework!! my van is now toasty, in fact is flippin boilin in here. So i can remove the extra pair of pants that i been wearing an just chill infront of ma PS2 in ma G'string
curtains open of course

Hee hee - you got it.
I would love to add a conversion to it - but then i would a syncro more.
Im keen to see what syncros can do off road and see how they compare. Also, by looking at the syncro forum i reckon they break down quite a lot (i think it goes with the off road territory!).
