Re: Not what it used to be?

I have, and our IT provider have today increased the file size for posted images to 10mb and 50 images per post. I have just done a test and a photo which would not upload from ...

Re: Dead as a dodo
the copper in a wire going to the fuel pump had fractured inside its plastic covering, just making contact, any load put on it was too much and contact lost. I checked that last time you mentioned it Les and the wire seemed fine. I suppose I could try replacing it to check - where would I get a rep...

Re: Dead as a dodo
Internal collapse or delamination of the flexible fuel hose? Seen that before and a dead cheap fix. That's been previously suggested but wasn't the problem. It hasn't had an in-line filter fitted has it? They can block up and cause problems. Does it make any difference how much fuel is in the tank?...

Re: Dead as a dodo
The ignition system has been ruled out. It seems that there is a restriction to the fuel flow when under load as there are no problems when idling. The pump/filter has been checked so if there is some sort of blockage/restriction it's likely to be further back, between the tank and the pump.

Re: Dead as a dodo
Thanks all, it was a duff battery. I think what threw me was that the charger indicated firstly that it was flat, then after a while on charge that it was fully charged. Anyway, new battery fitted and started OK, although the Traveller didn't get very far :( Some of you will remember a lengthy threa...

Dead as a dodo
Due to a variety of reasons my traveller has been parked in the garage for the last 6 months. Not good I know but there was no other option. Anyhow, on attempting to start him there is no ignition light and the lights, wipers etc don't work. It does not turn over on the key and I have checked the ba...

Re: HEATHER FACIA PLATE DECALS
There's a third screw at the top which is s real b****r to get out! The one on mine was a bit loose so I managed to get the facia plate off with a bit of wiggling. It got slightly dented but as I was taking it out to replace it with a better one it wasn't an issue. Hopefully someone here will know a...

Re: Carpet adheshive
You'll need some adhesive for the side edging strips - the bits of carpet that go between the floor and the door 'step'. If you get a decent quality carpet that fits well then there shouldn't be any sagginess.

Re: Vinyl cleaning
I'm not sure that leather dye would be the best thing to use on vinyl seats. Here's a great thread about interior refurbishment which you might find useful, and it includes dying vinyl seats:
