Re: Glow Plugs

Still trolling the net for glow plugs🙈 Just found the NGK’s 5116 Y-701J from a site called the Green Spark Plug Company for £32 for a set of 4, think I paid £50-60 for a set from EuroCarPart... might be useful to others who have the shorter plugs so thought I would share. Yes indeed, Green Spark Pl...

Wow - they aren't half hot here up north.
I presume BF members can day-trip to the event?
It is only a 20 mile trip around the KInder Plateau for us.

Re: 2.5 diesel fuel filter part numbers from euro car parts

I notice the Crosland Fuel Filter F30316, Euro Car Part Reference 503690188 is on ECP at the moment reduced from £19:81 RRP to £3:30 (83% off) https://www.eurocarparts.com/p/crosland-fuel-filter-503690188 Is this indeed a bargain as it seems at face value, or is there a catch (are they rubbish)? :wi...

Re: Intermittent Start of Bongo

That's right, as Geoff says that picture is f a 'generic' goodie bag; but don't worry you won't be the first person to be misled by it. So read the actual detailed description of the item which should be an accurate description of what's in each pack; as Geoff says some have the plunger as well as t...

Re: Intermittent Starter

Coincidentally I have been attempting to repair my starter motor solenoid contacts too. Due to intermittent starting. But I have failed early on - as I cant seem to shift (loosen) any of the the 3 x 14mm bolts that hold the SM in place - so as to remove it. I have followed the BF factsheet and the p...

Re: Meetings in 2020

Any nationwide plans for Friday 08-May-2020 - 3 day long weekend?
Just been reading that it is the Bongo Silver Jubilee - is that right?
Also May Bank Holiday and 75th anniversary of VE Day.
Worth a few mini-meets I would have thought!
Thoughts?

Re: Roof boxes

All sounds good kbg and good luck whichever. Seeing NDC myself at the Bash to have a reversible passenger seat fitted :-) Update: So, I am on the way to installing a NDC roof rack, having taken the plunge and bought one at the bash. Unfortunately a hitch - we discovered on the day that a few of the...

Re: Off to Scotland

[/quote] Thanks for those links kbg. We're making our way to Skye in July via Ardnamurchan, then we thought of winding back from Skye by Plockton, Applecross, and Glencoe. I can't wait :D [/quote] I bet you can't! Sounds lovely. We will be back that way at the end of August visiting Mull, and maybe ...

Re: Off to Scotland

Possible your In Box is full. The system holds new messages in the ether somehow until you delete some old ones. :wink: Great to meet you at Stourport. :D Nah, Bob, I haven't had a single PM since I joined in April. Nada, inbox empty. Yes, great to meet you and a bunch of others at the bash, albeit...

Re: Off to Scotland

After leaving the Bongo Bash this June I am intending to make my way up to Scotland and explore as much as possible of that beautiful Country. I wondered if any of our Scottish members and others that have also visited can suggest any 'not to be missed' places and sights. Thanking you in anticipati...

Re: Off to Scotland

To Kandabongogirl, I have sent you a PM thanking you for the Skye information sheet, but am also thanking you via this in case you don't get the PM. It will definitely be used. Sorry not to have met you but hope to in the future :D Ref. PM – not sure what’s happened as no messages in my inbox – may...

Hoping to bring some (more?) sunshine with me on my day trip Saturday. And maybe some bongo-burgers for the barbie.

Brake Fluid / Brake Inspection

Read a number of old posts on this subject with interest, some locked, after doing a search on ‘brake fluid’ and ‘brake inspection’ and not coming across much on the forum in recent years. Wonder why no recent updates / thoughts on this. Bought my 2WD 2.5TD '96 AFT bongo earlier this Spring via Priv...

Re: Off to Scotland

Thanks all for your thoughts on campsite availability. Will chance it, as you suggest, in less popular areas, and once I know when I will be ready to go over to Skye, make enquiries then. Sounds good. If it looks (last minute) like we are not going to make the bash then I will PM you some Isle of S...
