PS Having a great dilemma as to whether it is worth spending £1080 on Benji being that the vehicle only cost me £1795 in the first place as it is old and a tin top. I contacted the conversion company and they would strip out and refit a new bongo for only £500.
Should I therefore be buying a more ...

Re: Urgent help please - benji only starting with easy start
Well, a few weeks on - due to me having flu!!! Benji is in the garage and they are saying that it is the diesel pump leaking again. I had one o-ring replaced by a different garage at the end of last year. They are recommending replacing with a 12 month guaranteed pump at £600 plus vat plus labour ...

Urgent help please - benji only starting with easy start
So benji was doing very well for his first year but alas he is struggling.
Three months ago I had a diesel leak - traced to a o-ring in diesel pumps replaced and running fine.
Five weeks ago he was slow to start - had my glow plugs all replaced and injector cleaner put through. Been fine since ...

Water after raining in driver's footplate
Hope someone can help.
When I purchased benji, the paintwork under and next to the driver's footplate (thing you step on when you hoist yourself in) was rusty, and the driver's seat was spotted with rust. He had only been used for 1700 miles in two years and had been stood around lots so I put it ...
