T25 is doing my nut in

Might just burn it out. Piece of sheeeeeeeyite

 

what ever crossed your mind to buy the worthless piece of junk!

 

some ex pat french gardener convinced me it was a 'better drive' and 'more reliable'

 

Weigh it in

 

i feel like weighing something in

 

Remember the late bay is the prototype T25 and my early air cooled devon is great, unlike them later ones with water in that leak from everywhere

 

and people say the germans are clever. . . .

Have you got balls of steel ?

 

vehicle advise off a gardener ,come on ,get real....

BTW my t25 needs no attention ,just keeps on going....

 

some say that i have. they clang when i run down the stairs

 

Come on then, whats wrong?

 

Perfect house perfect life.

 

just out of my depth and theres like only 3 people on club 80-90 who answer any queries it is tedious. apparently the ratwell guide has quoted me wrong on pushrod length, yet they all urged me to re-read it and go by that as the book. now i have done that, its not right still.

 

Have you now got steel or ally pushrods ?

What's your engine code ?

 

It's a dg 1.9 and don't know the material just know they are 270mm long and 9mm diameter. Over on 8090 three people reckon that is correct for hydraulic lifters despite what ratwell says.

 

What's rat well say ?

 

Ratwell says that 271mm is for.solid.lifters.

 

Have you tried the brick yard site they use to be more into the fixing of the vans

I loved our t25 until white van man got involved now i am stuck with a crappy bay

 

If the engine is good, sell the van, keep engine, buy mine and put your engine in mine.

 

I got my pushrods from someone who changed his from hydraulic to solid...
