    Hi All I have noticed that there is a leak from the oil filler hole in the rear diff. Obviously there is very little coming out since it is only filled to be this level. It must leak when moving about. Would ptfe tape work on this or is the temps involved too high? I should mention that...

    generator for caravan

    the cheap two stroke ones are usually unregulated and you may find that outpiut varies too much - even if only used to charge the 12V. Sometimes volts can be in excess of 20V is not set right. AC current can still be as hit or miss. Use them only for lights/fans etc - anything that is voltage...

    DId they not do this years ago with dentists and opticians??? The result is peoples teeth are in a terrible state with all the charges. Same thing will happen - pay to see the GP and you will be t that people will leave it until it becomes serious or they will find a loophole - most likely by...

    mass senser

    Have you tried changing the air filter and cleaning the MAF (Mass airflow sensor) and its housing??? The reason i say this is I had the same problem a few weeks ago and found the air filter was crap. This let the MAF get dirty and then the problems occurred. there may be crap in the MAf housing...

    How much for bushes??

    Polybush

    What did you think of the ones from SDN? I want to completely change bushing, front and rear. I done a search and some are saying that the quality depends on the manufacturer???? I use the T2 for towing a caravan, so the bushes have to stand up to that. Also is there any extra tools I would...

    MAF again - I think!

    Thanks for the replies. The air filter i took out was rattling in its housing. Not a good fit which meant that the air could bypass the filter and deposit lots of leaves/flies/crap onto the MAF. The air filter i fitted was a much better fit, so i should not have the same probs again. The black...

    MAF again - I think!

    I think I succumbed to the MAF problem. Was changing the air filter on Tuesday, when I found it was the wrong one fitted - too small. Well there were flys and leaves and crap in and around the MAF. Silly me brushed them out - should have hoovered them:doh. Anyhow, next morning T2 started...

    new caravan

    Your T2 will have no porblem pulling this at all. However remember to load the caravan correctly - heavy items over the axle and light stuff at the ends. Make sure the noseweigth of the van is not over its limit. To be legal, you will need towing mirrors. Speed limit is 50mph on single...

    What do you think?????

    camping questions

    Most campsites elec will have 10-16 amps - just check with the site first and they will tell you. When we went camping the only thing elec that was a must was a 2Kw blow heater - I still have it as a back up for the caravan. Invest in good quality sleeping bags and hot water bottles for the...
