  3. finally got around to painting the inside of where the fuel tank sits...............
    so it looks like sundays job is to put the tank back in and have a fight with the fuel filler pipe. I can remember last time, what a ****** of a job.
    anyone know if you can buy gates barricade in 5.6mm or will the 6mm be ok as that's all I can find. 6mm will make putting the breathers back on a lot easier....

    Collected it after it's 10 day holiday down the road, having it's engine out, fuel tank cleaned and all pipes / hoses done, new heat exchangers, and general tinkering. Fingers crossed for no more potential death by carbon monoxide fumes or spontaneous engine fireball. Yay! Gonna take it for a drive into work tomorrow to celebrate.... and then to Cornwall :)
     
  10. It's just PVC sleeving from Vehicle Wiring Products. I don't like naked battery leads. The stuff over the battery connector is 20mm heatshrink.

  11. Breathers are just push-fit. 6mm will clamp up nicely on fuel lines if you've got the right sized clips.

  13. Decorated him for the big day, helping out a couple on their wedding day. Went really well, he drove like a dream! Everybody loved him and I am so pleased I could do it for them!

  14. After waking up to a thunderstorm and flooded van, fixed the gap on the top of the sliding door with duck tape.

    Another job for when I get back!
