*[[what is wiki|WHAT IS WIKI? new users start here]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;

*Club 80-90 members are the only ones with editing rights at the moment, we have not been able to automatically grant 80-90 logons with wiki editing rights these need to be manually added Please PM Mocki for access.  &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Please login with your forum username and password&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;
			&lt;br /&gt;

Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;

*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;

*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

====Le moteur ne démarre plus====&lt;br /&gt;
Quand un moteur ne démarre plus, il faut d&#039;abord accuser le démarreur ! Mais il n&#039;est pas le seul responsable... Nous allons voir comment, pas a pas, essayer de déterminer l&#039;origine de la panne...&lt;br /&gt;

Les T3 sortis d&#039;usine ont une hauteur au sol d&#039;environ &#039;&#039;&#039;???&#039;&#039;&#039; cm.&lt;br /&gt;
Tout comme il est possible d&#039;augmenter cette hauteur (les Syncro en 14&#039; et les Steyr Puch en 16&#039;), il est également possible de les rabaisser.&lt;br /&gt;
Ce type d&#039;opération a toutefois un impact sur la qualité de conduite, et ce n&#039;est pas un hasard si les ingénieurs de VW se sont arrêtés sur &#039;&#039;&#039;???&#039;&#039;&#039; cm : c&#039;est, a priori, le meilleur ratio confort / sécurité existant !&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Néanmoins pour des raisons souvent esthétiques, le confort de conduite peut être relégué en second plan.&lt;br /&gt;
Car il faut savoir que plus la garde au sol est courte, plus le débattement des ressorts est court également, et donc que les aspérités de la route se ressentiront plus ou moins.&lt;br /&gt;
La qualité du matériel joue énormément, c&#039;est pourquoi il convient de bien lire ce guide avant de faire son choix !&lt;br /&gt;
De même, il va de soit que selon la garde au sol, la taille des pneumatiques doit être prise en compte.&lt;br /&gt;
La seule contrainte étant de ne jamais faire ripper un pneu sur la carrosserie au risque de tordre celle-ci ou d&#039;éclater le pneu en roulant !&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Selon les budgets et les envies, il existe 3 types de solutions pour rabaisser son T3 :&lt;br /&gt;
* Modifier l&#039;équipement d&#039;origine&lt;br /&gt;
* s&#039;équiper en ressorts courts&lt;br /&gt;
* s&#039;équiper d&#039;un kit complet ressorts + amortisseurs&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Le fait-maison ====&lt;br /&gt;
Il n&#039;est pas nécessaire dans cette configuration d&#039;acheter du matériel.&lt;br /&gt;
Il suffit simplement d&#039;un peu de courage pour se lancer dans la découpe de son équipement d&#039;origine (le mieux étant de récupérer cela sur un autre véhicule pour revenir en arriere si besoin est)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Les ressorts seuls ====&lt;br /&gt;
Cette solution intermédiaire est assez intéressante car elle présente l&#039;avantage de limiter son investissement et de conserver un confort optimal.&lt;br /&gt;
* 40mm : &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Les kits complets ====&lt;br /&gt;
Plus cher mais plus radical, le kit ressort + amortisseurs est la solution ultime pour ceux qui veulent fleurter avec le bitume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 70mm Formel K : Ce kit est déconseillé par les utilisateurs l&#039;ayant essayé, les ressorts s&#039;affaissant au bout de quelques millers de kilometres. Le confort devient vite un concept lointain et chaque bosse sur la route est directement envoyé vers les occupants du véhicule...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== AirRide ====&lt;br /&gt;
Les systèmes de suspension a air est une solution pour l&#039;instant théorique, et il est difficile de trouver des informations sur le sujet pour le moment.&lt;br /&gt;
Assez onéreux, il s&#039;agit d&#039;ajuster de la garde au sol selon les besoins.&lt;br /&gt;
il est ainsi possible de monter son T3 a plus de X cm, tout comme le descendre a même le sol, et tout ca sur simple pression des commandes.&lt;br /&gt;
Un seul gars a ma connaissance a mené l&#039;expérience, mais on peut être sur qu&#039;au vu de la demande d&#039;AirRide, ce système tend a se développer sur les T3.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Let&#039;s assume you&#039;ve got the wishbone off.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you took it off you marked up the eccentric bolt that held it all together, so you could re-assemble it properly, right?  Well that&#039;s pretty immaterial if the bush is proper knackered, cos you&#039;re gonna need to take it and get it re-set afterwards as the new bush will move everything around and I&#039;ll get you don&#039;t have a wheel alignment set at home, do you?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:P6050015S.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OK, so here&#039;s a 2WD wishbone.  You can see the right side of the picture&#039;s all dark cos I&#039;ve been soaking it in my choice of penetrating oil for a few days. The Syncro ones aren&#039;t much different to be honest.  They&#039;re cast though, so don&#039;t go trying to weld the new bush in, OK?  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:P6050015S2.JPG]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The red arrow shows the tag-weld that&#039;s holding the bush in the wishbone.  We&#039;re gonna cut that off with an angle grinder as the bush ain&#039;t coming out without removing it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While we&#039;re cutting off the weld we might as well just motor *carefully* through the rest of the bush, minding the wishbone.  By doing this we won&#039;t have to spend quite so much time beating it out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m going to leave manner in which you beat the old bush out up to you, OK?  Just do it carefully.  If you have a press then use it, otherwise just improvise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here&#039;s a couple of pics of the old vs the new.  You can see why they need replacing - loads of slop (and I&#039;ve cut the bottom half off the old one, too).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:P6130007S.jpg]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:P6130009S.jpg]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OK, when I did this I slapped a whole load of copper slip around the wishbone to help the bush in - like this - &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:P6130010S.jpg]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then I placed the wishbone into a vice and pushed the new bush in as far as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:P6130014S.jpg]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then I got a nice bit of wood to cushion the blows and smacked the thing home.  I few well-aimed blows should do it, unless you&#039;re dicking about with some toffee stick of a hammer&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:P6130015S.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another smack and it&#039;s in &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:P6130017S.jpg]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, if you&#039;ve got access to a welder you can tag-weld the bush, but to be honest...... it&#039;s not essential.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now re-assembly is the reverse of removal.  Enjoy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you&#039;re doing the wishbone bushes then you might like to check the top ball joint for wear, or tired seals and replace it if needs be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Addendum by &lt;br /&gt;
== maxstu ==&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
I followed the removal to the letter and all came apart with ease. However I had been spraying WD40 on all concerned bits for over two weeks.&lt;br /&gt;
I altered the method for pushing in new bushes, though. I had big problems getting the bush to initially bite on the edge of the wishbone. Everthing was now covered in copperslip. I was sweating like a horse. And the combination made holding, banging, gripping near impossible.&lt;br /&gt;
Take 5 and think. Question Confused Idea.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So instead of whacking with a BF hammer I pressed them in using a vice, a square piece of 5mm alloy and 4&amp;quot; piece of standard scaffold pole.&lt;br /&gt;
just line it all up between the jaws of your vice.&lt;br /&gt;
Then assemble thus.:-&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Outer jaw&lt;br /&gt;
*Alloy plate&lt;br /&gt;
*New bush with shed loads of copperslip spread all over the gaff.&lt;br /&gt;
*Wishbone&lt;br /&gt;
*3-4&amp;quot; scaffold bit&lt;br /&gt;
*Inner jaw.&lt;br /&gt;
*Align all horizontally &amp;amp; centrally as possible between the jaws of your vice and turn her in.&lt;br /&gt;
*Dadada Laaaaa. Straight in ....nooooo problemo!&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

*Club 80-90 members are the only ones with editing rights at the moment, we have not been able to automatically grant 80-90 logons with wiki editing rights these need to be manually added Please PM Mocki for access.  &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Please login with your forum username and password&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

*[[what is wiki|WHAT IS WIKI? new users start here]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;During an 80-90 meet 1664 and I disagreed on inverter efficiency.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He went away and did some rudimentary research and testing....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
with the results I was pm&#039;d with this:-&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hiya Kev&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sorry it&#039;s taken so long but I went on the piss last weekend &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Right then, these figures are based on the Ring &#039;PowerSource&#039; 500W inverter, Model RINV500.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The data was obtained using an old analogue &#039;AVO&#039; meter so are not precise like a digital meter would be. (They were cutting edge in their day).&lt;br /&gt;
Please bare in mind that this inverter&#039;s fan only runs if it starts getting hot so figures exclude any load the internal fan may impose, albeit small.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The official quiescent (ie, no load) figure given in the literature is 0.4A but with the AVO mine consumed only 225mA ie, 0.225A. Efficiency is given as 90%.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The following power consumption figures were obtained by purely resistive load-household lamps to be precise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;25W @ 240v consumed 2.4A @ 12v = 28W = 89.3% efficiency&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;40W @ 240v consumed 3.8A @ 12v = 45.6W = 87.7% efficiency&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;60W @ 240v consumed 5.8A @ 12v = 69.6W = 86.2% efficiency&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;100W @ 240v consumed 9.2A @ 12v = 110.4W = 90.6% efficiency&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AVO&#039;s maximum d.c current limit is 15A so I can&#039;t really offer any higher figures without pushing my luck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;

Behind main fuse box in front of (Right hand drive, passenger side) fusebox. there are 2 &amp;quot;crowns&amp;quot; of earths that may want attention. Count how many spades terminals are free so you don&#039;t miss any putting them back. might be an idea with all those earths hanging around to disconnect  the earth strap from the battery as the fuse panel is still live. You may depending on the state of the terminals want to replace them, use metal ones, not plastic coated as the space between spades is limited. I held each one in a pair of needle nose pliers and wire brushed them.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
checked all the fuses on the board ...ok&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
late fuse board fitted &lt;br /&gt;
This happened to kevtherev.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He fixed it by removing the fuse board and checking the &#039;crowns&#039;as the symptoms pointed to earth connection &#039;&#039;&#039;[10]&#039;&#039;&#039; (haynes) wiring diagram. connection [10] was common to all of the non functioning items&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
sure enough the crown was badly earthed...probably due water ingress, or recent fitting of a radio and speaker wires&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Footnote&#039;&#039;&#039;...A poor connection of the main feed into the fuse board (thick red wire, white connector) will also cause similar problems&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gearbox&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 there should be at least one earth going from gearbox to chasssis, some folks add a second just to be sure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Engine block to left of engine block to engine bay. Particularly on 2.1 injection engines this is a prone point for failure after you have checked the gearbox one above.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;Although I own an Autosleeper I love the little seat that came with devons, which was never an option for &#039;sleepers...so.... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
this is what the real Mcoy looks like&lt;br /&gt;

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/stevevw/buddyseat002-1.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
so we took the necessary  measurements and made a plan&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
then the  box was put together and upholstered...plenty of room for a porta potti and more...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and now we can sit around the table, and eat together.&lt;br /&gt;

*[[what is wiki|WHAT IS WIKI? new users start here]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Welcome to a VW-Tech, the wiki technical archive of the Club 80-90 website.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== IMPORTANT ==&lt;br /&gt;
*[[what is wiki|WHAT IS WIKI? new users start here]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Notices and Bugs==&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PLEASE READ THE&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Disclaimer|&#039;&#039;&#039;Disclaimer:&#039;&#039;&#039;]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Club 80-90 members are the only ones with editing rights at the moment.  &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Please login with your forum username and password&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;
			&lt;br /&gt;
*Please reference your source if what you are posting is not your own. Ask permission first if there is copyright on it, and if it is from another website please put the link to the original URL.&lt;br /&gt;

== What is the best battery to use for an auxiliary charging system? ==&lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;For cost and performance open lead acid batteries are king.&#039;&#039;&#039; All other batteries are a derivative of this, with variations to suit different markets, where there are specific problems implementing the standard lead acid battery. E.g. Gel, is a standard lead acid battery except that the acid has been transformed into gel. But by solidifying the electrolyte, you introduce many problems not associated with free flowing water based batteries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;“Most expensive is best”&#039;&#039;&#039; This is so not even close to being true. In fact I would say the reverse is true in the marine leisure market. When reading all the sales literature regarding Gel/AGM, please note that none of their curves and claims refer to standard lead acid batteries. (They know better). They never claim they have better performance than standard open lead acid, this is just an assumption on your side. They claim weird things including longer shelf life and that you can turn them upside down and have your dinner under them. Who cares? I want fast charging, long life, plus good value for money from my batteries. &lt;br /&gt;
If a statement says that this is the best battery. The question is, best at what aspect?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the term &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;maintenance free&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;, is on a battery, then treat this with caution. There is no such thing as maintenance-free, all batteries are basically the same. A Gel, sealed lead acid and AGM are all only maintenance-free because of the reduced charging performance curves; and not because there is something special about the battery. If you charge a normal lead acid battery to the Gel or AGM curves, then they would not require maintenance either. Remember &#039;maintenance free&#039; is a handicap to fast charging not an advantage. This feature, which on the surface looks good, is, in most cases the worst feature that you could possibly buy; as this feature dramatically limits the maximum charging characteristics of the battery.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fast charging costs water, i.e. if you want to charge you batteries fast, don&#039;t touch a Sealed/Gel/AGM etc with a barge pole. Fast charging will result in a certain % water loss from the battery. If the battery is sealed the water loss cannot be replaced. &#039;&#039;&#039;REMEMBER FAST CHARGING AND SEALED/MAINTAINCE-FREE ARE A CONTRADICTION OF TERMS&#039;&#039;&#039;. You may not like this, but tough, it&#039;s the way it is.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Watch the term leisure / deep cycle as it simply does not exist. The standard, so called, leisure batteries, are simply starter batteries with extra support for the active lead material. This may increase the life by 5 – 10 %, but does not turn a starter battery into a deep cycle battery. &#039;&#039;&#039;True traction (deep cycle) are not available at a sensible price and are uneconomical to use for standard leisure use.&#039;&#039;&#039; However, if you plan to travel the world then do look at 6 V or 2 V traction and build your battery bank up from those batteries, but expect to pay about 3 – 6 times the price of so called standard leisure batteries. On a daily use cycle, the standard so called leisure battery (which is a starter battery) will last you as little as 6 – 8 months whereas traction would last 15 years. &#039;&#039;&#039;But on a leisure rating (2 weekends per month and about 4 weeks’ holiday) then you would get about 5 – 7 years out of a standard leisure. That&#039;s if you charge it right using advanced regulators and constant current battery chargers).&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battery sales companies quote battery cycles such as 6000 cycles for the battery. This looks good on the surface, however it will be 6000 cycles at say 10% discharge. This is a meaningless figure. All batteries have a manufacturers&#039; graph, which odds are, you will not see in full; as the embarrassing section tends to end up on the advertising company’s editing floor. The graph will have % discharge on one side and cycles on the other. This graph is sometimes shown on glossy battery information, but is normally censored at about 30 – 40% discharge, where the figures can still show 4000 cycles. What they fail to show is the 100% discharge cycle (which they of course say you should never go to and I am not for one moment suggesting you should). This, at the end of the day is the only ultimate datum point. Whichever battery performs the best at 100% discharge, will perform best at 50% etc. The interesting fact is that they are all about the same, that is, because they are all basically the same battery. A Gel and conventional starter battery go down the same production line until one has a gel substance put in it and the other liquid. The shock with this figure is that for Gel, Sealed, or leisure, etc, the constant figure is about 30 – 60 cycles, whereas true traction with thicker plates is over 300+. (However, don&#039;t expect to see this graph on glossy literature, as they are way too frightened of this graph and will not release it). It is however available from correctly specked commercial batteries.&lt;br /&gt;
So which is the best battery for standard domestic leisure use?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The job I am referring to is for auxiliary charging systems on boats, camper vans or vehicles. I am not getting into what each and every battery type is best at, or for; as each type has a market, it just maybe not this market.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To pick the best battery for your job, then at least understand how they work. Forget the actual chemical formula and all the fancy terms around. The bottom line is that lead acid batteries have been around since the 1st World War and the basic principles have changed very little since. The only thing we all agree on is that they are not environmentally friendly, but are cheap to make and will remain king until such time as someone comes up with a solution which can compete. Which by the way to date they simply have not. How do I know this? Well it’s very simple, if they had, the lead acid battery would be out the door so fast its toes would not touch the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;So how do they work?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let’s understand the basics. They are all lead acid, but fall into 2 basic groups. A starter battery and a traction battery (fork lift truck, true deep cycle).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Type 1 (starter batteries)&#039;&#039;&#039;. A battery is simply a bucket of energy. If you wish to get the energy out fast, to start an engine (cold cranking rating) then you need a large surface area (large plate size). The only way to get a large surface area into the bucket, is to make the plates thin, so they can squeeze into the bucket (this is your starter battery; it needs the cold cranking kick in order to start the car, so its plates are thin to achieve this). This theory is pushed even further with batteries which increase this surface area more, to make what are known as high torque batteries. These deliver even higher cold cranking, by putting the plates in a &#039;swiss roll&#039; configuration, in order to make them thinner and increase the surface area. This is good for cold cranking, but has a fatal flaw when it comes to fast charging. (The problem is, it works too well when charging and destroys itself).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Type 2 (traction or fork lift truck batteries)&#039;&#039;&#039;. These batteries are not interested in the cold cranking kick, which is required for a starter battery, but are still interested in the power in the bucket. So they can reduce their surface area of the plates. The good thing about being able to reduce the surface area is that you can make the plates much thicker. The end result is you still get the same power from the bucket it is simply delivered at a slower rate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, for deep cycle and long life, the traction batteries are by far and away the best. But their price tends to kill them. However, if you are doing a long journey around the world, or going away from the UK for 2 years plus, then investing in 2 volt or 6 volt traction batteries is a must, regardless of the cost. They will pay for themselves many times over. For general leisure use they are the best, but a bit of a waste of money, unless you intend keeping the boat for 15 years to get the use out of them.&lt;br /&gt;
So what&#039;s the end result of these two battery types?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A battery is made up of lead plates, with a lead paste on the plates. Every time the battery is used, then so many bits per sq inch fall off the plates, if you have a large surface area then a large number of bits will fall off. Then to make matters worse your paste is thin so you cannot afford to lose the paste. However, if you have a small surface area and thicker plates the same is true, but the plates are thicker and as such, you can afford to lose a small amount of paste. In a nutshell, that is it, or be it in very simplistic terms, those are the differences between traction batteries and starter batteries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As you can see from the above 2 battery types, the plate configuration cannot be blended. If for starting, you have a large surface area of thin plates, for traction you have a small surface area of thicker plates. One is black and one is white, there is no grey area. So, if you are purchasing a battery and it has a cold cranking rating and the salesman says it is a deep cycle battery, but will also start your engine; then it is in fact a starter battery (end of story).&lt;br /&gt;
What we want now is the best for general leisure&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The best battery to use for fast charging using advanced charging systems&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
    &#039;&#039;&#039;* For general leisure use: use low cost Lead Acid which can be topped up with water. &#039;&#039;So called leisure batteries&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
    &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Avoid Gel / AGM for 3 reasons&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   1. very expensive&lt;br /&gt;
   2. their fast charger rate causes them to gas&lt;br /&gt;
   3. poor cycling numbers.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;

*[[what is wiki|WHAT IS WIKI? new users start here]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]].  Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don&#039;t alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will  avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. &lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don&#039;t enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;The WIKI is for answers not questions.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

*Club 80-90 members are the only ones with editing rights at the moment.  &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Please login with your forum username and password&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
e.g. SPACE &#039;&#039;&#039;Name: &#039;&#039;&#039; Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Although I own an Autosleeper I love the little seat that came with devons, which was never an option for &#039;sleepers...so.... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
this is what the real Mcoy looks like&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/stevevw/buddyseat002-1.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
so we took the necessary  measurements and made a plan&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c229/kev1122/flapseat.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
then the  box was put together and upholstered...plenty of room for a porta potti and more...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and now we can sit around the table, and eat together.&lt;br /&gt;
