The morning after filling my Tank with 40 litres VO & 21 litres Diesel, the Mav refuses to start! Turning over, but battery getting low! May have to put my 110ah Caravan Battery on it if I can't figure out what has happened. If "The Dragon" finds out she's gonna go balistic...

So after 400 miles I refilled my tank with 40 litres of Rapeseed Veg Oil and 21.16 litres Diesel, so the trip to Kings Lynn and Back up M5, M42, M6, A14, A605 and A47, mostly averaging 55-65 by my rough calculation came out at just a tad under 30MPG which has pleased "The Dragon" and convinced...

Just thought the wider appearence looked good. I've got alloys on my SWB Mav. I'll have to find a junkie and pinch his syringe then! Plenty of em round here!

First up: My steering wheel foam grip has seperated from the steel ring inside the wheel! Any way of making it Solid again? I thought about injecting Super Glue into the foam at various points? Can't afford a new Wheel and saw on a TV Program that it can fail an MOT (Due end of Month) for this...

Great News Frosty. I'll be taking the plunge this weekend as well.

I for one wouldlike to know How you're doing on Veg Oil?

Have Used AVG (Free) for years and it works really well, never had any problems. I also use AVG Tune Up, another good system, but you have to pay for it. Something else I'd always recommend is another Free Program, SPYBOT. Was recommended on Gadget Show a few years back and I've found it very...

Stay OFF Road, co's you certainly ain't safe on it! Horrendous!

Dunno about anyone else but I'm totally confused now about which bloody oil to use in my 2.7TDi !!!!!!!!

Yeh! That's what I thought! How long are they supposed to stay on? I thought it was about 20 seconds? Mine only stay on about 4-5 seconds!!!!

Anyone know which Glow Plugs I need for my 96 (P) 2.7TDi Mav? So far every time I've bought stuff of eBay, it's been wrong! Even after the Motor Factors checked my Reg I got the wrong Motorcraft Oil Filter! AND then the wrong Fuel filter as well. It says TD43850 under the engine number, does...

Don't have a Farm Foods near us in Malvern, so while I'm visiting my son in Kings Lynn I asked if there was a Farm Foods nearby. Turned out, there was one just 2 minutes away, so went round and bought 4x 10 litre bottles of Rapeseed Oil at £9.95 each! They had loads, but only had room in Mav for...

Just driven from Malvern to Kings Lynn in my 96 2.7TDi SWB Mav with a full tank. After fitting a cheap "Ebay" Air Induction Filter, I'm impressed! First quarter tank was 132 miles, total miles here was 178 and I'm only just past the first quarter tank mark. Not gone over 70mph, average 65mph...

So, I bought all new Wiper blades for my truck when I got it a month or so back and theyve been really good, but yesterday the front drivers wiper started squeaking on both ends of travel, I checked it's not hitting the screen rubber and can't see any obstructions. I cleaned both blade and...

Another saying: "Better to be late in this world, than early into the Next!" I will admit, since I started towing a "Tin Tent" I have slowed down my speeds from how I used to drive. Then again, before I was 60, I'd never considered getting one, before I used to curse any Caravan puller on the...

I did the Course, it was run by a Woman! a Typical Women Driver!!!! Every time anybody mention "Women Drivers" or "Immigrant Drivers with NO licences" they got threatened with expulsion and 3 points back on their licence! it was a joke! Showed films of idiots doing 60 in 30 limits and another...

Whats the difference between CH4 & CG4 ?????

Found this, but never heard of them! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Smith-Allan-Mineral-15w-40-Engine-Motor-Oil-petrol-diesel-5-ltr-/300647654887?pt=UK_Car_Accessories_Car_Care_Cleaning&hash=item45ffff25e7

API CH-4, ACEA B3, B4, E3, E5 is what is says?

What about this reasonably priced brand of oil?
