Inlet manifolds are quite often the culprits

lots of bongo's have what seems to be extra travel before they bite, compared to normal cars, its not uncommon,if your concerned take it to an mot station and get them to test the braking power.

best place to pick up the vacuum is at the lower front of the engine (drivers side!) under the main water in pipe/cambelt cover, where small rubber hose goes onto a metal pipe which feeds the solenoids. i've always picked up there and never had a problem. IIRC test procedure is start car with set bu...

later fuel pump? which year, as post 99 pump doesnt have a tps! Try applying power directly to the fuel cut off, if not theres a break in the system somewhere as its powered by the 15A fuse i mentioned earlier, take a look at the fuel pump connector plug? but the flashing glow plug light makes me su...

check interior fuse box, middle row far left (15A) that would produce the results your having

Julian

your right you just need a power lead specific to the head unit/manufacturer, iirc sony power leads are about £3 from fleabay and widely available

usually low fluid,check the resevior under drivers seat.

When you say simple fix - Is it just reseat the pipe or is it a replace the pipe job? I don't think that the pipe has a split but I'm slightly concerned that the pipe might just have lost some flex... its usually just reseating the pipe and maybe putting a jubilee clip on it, sometimes the pipes be...

sounds like feed or return to the oil temp exchanger, not uncommon, usually a simple fix.

which year and do you have drivers airbag? steering wheel face is usually held on with 10mm bolts, found on the back of the wheel, sometinmes under a plastic grommet, pop it/them off and you'll see the bolts, undo that the front of the wheel/airbag will pull off, disconnect wiring. The actual wheel ...

Yep, standard thread

Julian

depends on the leak, there are 3 seals that fail in the pump, 2 on the sides (inside is awkward) and rear, if its side seals they can be done in situ, if its the rear, its best to get it out, even then its a mare of a job.

julian

usual suspect is the relay, passenger side inner wing? look for plug with red/redblack wiring

Julian

Do you mean the 'top hat' or the little ridged washer that goes between the top hat and the injector? either way both are required, so yes they need to be replaced, new heads usually come with them in the bag of bits??

i did simialr to this when had to pick up a bongo from the back of beyond, stopped in a little fuel station just as the guy closed up and left so had bongo with dead battery and no tools, so drove the other bongo nose to nose, went round the back of the garage and aquired er i mean found an old piec...
