You don't mention if you have a leisure battery at all ? If you do then all the circuits you mention are normally powered from the LB. It could be a problem with the Split Charge Relay that is used to charge the LB from the alternator once the engine is running, but its worth investigating both the ...

Might be worthwhile checking the tension of the two aux. belts as a start before getting any deeper as anything else at the front of the engine means taking a lot of things off! I have heard people suggesting spraying each aux. belt in turn with water to see if anything changes - not something I've ...

Yes be nice to see you at Stourport Mike and you to Muz

Yes quite a common add-on but be aware that the AFT roof changes shape over the years, later versions don't have the recessed drainage channels each side but the roof fixing/lifting nuts are in the same location hence the style of support needs to change depending on roof. Also do make sure that nob...

Welcome aboard! You may find that you have a Leisure battery (LB) installed under the bonnet, in front of the passenger seat, its common to fit what is termed a "Swap Loom" that transfers some of the circuits from the Starter Battery across to the LB so that they are powered when the ignit...

All the tanks are 65l capacity, however the pump inlet is a few cm's above the bottom so around 60l of useable capacity. Yes the gauges are not that accurate, the low fuel light (provided its not blown ;-) ) does eventually come on, it never has on my V6 but there again when its on Empty on mine it ...

Well it might be worth while using a meter to check that you are getting a signal from the sensor in the tank to the back of the meter. As I recall some of the meters have a fine wire from the screw connection to the movement itself which can be snapped if the screws on the rear cause the mounting p...

Well if it was working directly beforehand and stopped after you changed, why not change it back if the previous one was working? What was the reason for changing in the first place ?

The fuel meter has to be powered to work, the needle will only move whilst power is applied, it is also very heavily damped. You don't say which engine you have there is a common fault on the diesel vans where the return earth on the tank corrodes, the tank itself needs a new earth strap to be added...

You might find that the steering problem is one or both of the U/J's on the steering column, if the grease has hardened!

One is inside the cabin the other outside the firewall at the bottom.

Ah thankyou! Just wasn't expecting it so was a little bemused and as normal with unexpected emails took some care checking it out :-) Yes treating my legs with a lot of respect at the moment to make sure I can still stump around the site without falling on my face whilst looking thru the viewfinder ...

Well that's me booked in for EHU for the duration Tuesday to Monday!
Did a double take on the email before going for it today! Saves the rush on Thursday morning I guess

Welcome aboard! Did you read the final comment "Please note that some customers have bought these kits for later )post 99) Bongos and say that there was not a problem with fitting. But we can’t guarantee this." I think Ian was being careful as there are changes in other pipes regarding the...

Just read this RIP Mike.

Not the same sort of automatic gearbox I'm afraid! These don't have ANY bands to nip up!
