Service Time

[Mundy]

My T reg SWB needs a little service, ahd one in June when I bought it but not sure what they done. My mate said he'll do one for £30 if I get parts.
Few questions-

1) Milner do air/fuel/oil filter- all for £10?-anyone know if these are any good?

2) I want some really good oil, whats the best make to buy and how much will I need?

3) Anything I need to get my mate to check while he's got it?

cheers for help

Ok I understand, then £30 is a good price:augiebut if you can watch the lad doing the service for you then next time around you may be able to do it your self:naughty

hi wayne, very easy to do, all i do is remove old filter ( i put diesel in my wash tank) fill new filter with diesel screw back on, pump up pressure, start vehicle and hold revs about 1500, last time i did mine it never missed a beat, time before it coughed and spluttered for a second or two and away it went, doddle. :clap

Hello Mundy,

I did the last basic service on mine, and bought all of the filters, fluids from a local Motor Factors, just because it was nice to walk in, and walk out with everything that I needed. The following got changed / replaced...

oil filter
air filter
fuel filter
engine oil
power steering belt
alternator belt

I'm taking the Mav to France later this year, it'll get all of the above just before I go, but also...

front diff oil
transfere box oil
main gear box oil
rear axle oil
grease props
+ a full check.

Hope this helps Bud, watch and learn, and save a few quid next time !

Lee. :thumbs
