Mine had road tyres on it when I bought it but replaced them with Cooper AT3's & there was no charge at all in mpg :thumbs not sure what size wheels you have but 26psi in the rears sounds a little low but tbh can't remember the pressure for 15 or 16" wheels now but the 17" are 26f & 29r but I...

Many thanks Rick your a pure gent:thumbs got the part numbers off the maf body today Nissan part No 22680-7f406, Bosch part No 0281002596 & the number on the sensor itself is f00c262061 going to try my mates over the weekend. Gave the truck an oil change & replaced the fuel filter so hopefully...

Nissan want £420 for a new maf as mine is the later one :doh which is 100% increase on the one I bought for my old 1999 T2

Pulled the IC off today & it looks ok as no signs of oil coming out of the welds or fins but there was plenty of oil inside the hose on the inlet manifold so think the oil has been seeping upwards so will replace the spring clips with hose clips to see if there is any difference but have wrapped...

It's a bosch set up as it's a 2005, egr had the vac pipe blocked off just under 3 years ago when I bought it but lately it is a bit slower solo I think & the fuel lines were replaced in Sept/Oct 2015

The old coach road is a nice drive & views are great if the weather is good (rain & fog when I drove it years ago) not sure if they have repaired the bomb hole so be careful as it eats 4x4's :lol & you can't drive around it as it's all bog land managed to put a nice dent in my old SWB T2's fuel...

Was away with the caravan last week, at first I thought it was my driving as haven't towed over the winter but the truck seemed a little sluggish on the flat but when I came to a couple of hills i've towed up before it did seem to struggle loads to the point I had to drop down to forth & was...

Got to take mine in just keep forgetting about it:doh

I love the old MGB GT's, spent years working on them & the Rover dealership I worked for was the top restoration place in the NE:augie I know could still get every body panel for them a few years ago as Rover sold off the factory tooling etc to make the panels & a company did start production of...

Ah Bluebull he's a great lad had many a good chat with him on here, email & FB over the years & was lucky enough to meet him about 7 years ago when work brought him over to England for a week & met up with him at Newcastle airport before he had to fly back to Ireland:thumb2 Sadly Paul has been...

Personally i'd go for 15w40 as it'll still be ok here in the UK

Think it was code 21 I got, truck didn't want to rev & the light came on the dash when I floored it & noticed a lot of black smoke coming out of the back turned out to be a blocked fuel filter:doh once changed it ran great again

No snorkel on my truck:lol:lol going to my parents but they are in north Carlisle luckily it's quite high up & didn't flood like the rest of Carlisle but a couple of miles down the road was hit bad & they are still pumping water out:( & the weather forecast for the next couple of days is for...

I also prefer the look of the MK2 front end:thumbs tbh don't think the indicators in the wings will be much of a problem as they seem to stop where the wings wrap around on the MK2 & you might also get away keeping the later bumper with maybe a little bit of modding

A very Merry Xmas & Happy New Year to everyone & their families & hope your motors run well in 2016:D If anyone by chance is on the A69 on boxing day & see's a silver T2 with a half asleep driver at the wheel don't worry it's just me either heading to Cumbria or back to Northumberland:lol:lol:lol

I've always loosened the nut or bolt a few turns & pulled & wiggled the steering wheel hard until it comes loose:augie reason for leaving the nut or bolt inplace is so you don't smash the steering wheel into your face when it comes free & i've seen it happen:lol:lol

Our budgie has taken a few calls as we have told the caller to hang on for a minute & put the phone on top of the budgies cage:lol

:doh:doh:doh The joy's of being dyslexic plus had taken my pills & a load of pain killers for my broken ribs stopped the brain working more:lol:lol

We get loads:doh but the biggest problem is so many companies are selling off our details or companies are using auto dialers:augie i've threatened legal action against a few companies that have called & after a while they have stopped calling but not all so they end up getting some abuse down...

TBH front should be lower than the rear due to weight transfer when pulling away as the rear end will squat down a bit, if it's level the front end will lift & effect the steering also handling will be effected which will show up more due the the all round lift. Personally I would have the front...
