Hi sorry only just seen this reply, if you where closer I'd have it dude! Thanks though The van is almost finished! I'll put some pics up tomos but took her for a cheeky yet very illegal 'test run' across the Humber bridge and back which was amazing apart from running out of fuel ! I have got a couple of timing issues though as she's popping and farting and is a bit flat to say the least. Should I be setting the v on the back of the pulley which I understand to be 7.5degs btdc to the centre at tick over or full advance? Also only running a vacuum to the dizzy from one carb (twin itc 34s) and I don't seem to have any vacuum so would it be better from both? Will also be fitting a balance pipe soon. Will get her properly tuned and get a fuel reg fitted before any long runs this is just to get her to paint (in the morning eeek) then mot on thurs Any suggestions will be appreciated
So took her back to paint this morn, think I've almost got the timing sorted got 80 down the duel carrage way! Interior all done just need to fit the table As she sat when I left her, way to low at front gona need drop spindles when I can afford em. MOT Thursday, hopefully without any issues then summer here we come!!
I don't wish to boast but after 2 and a 1/2 years and it been stripped to a bare shell and back my bus passed its MOT first time this morning!! even emissions passed EEEKK! Guess what im going to be doing all weekend
woo hooooo well done fella now go enjoy it gonna go for a drive in mine in a bit stuff the bad weather
cheers, yeah that was the only fudging required. The guy knew it was going straight back to paint for colour sand and buff so let it go, which was nice of him!
