Hey all
My (98 diesel) Dispatch was grumbling on starting a few times. Nothing major and was fine once it got running. Stalled twice 2 whilst driving 2 weeks ago but started fine. Engine cut out whilst driving last week but again started fine. Few days ago went to start it and it's turned over, grumbled repeatedly but will not fire up for love nor money.
Had a mobile mechanic out who reckons fuel injection pump gone and it's a write-off. He was under the hood for 10 minutes but didn't do too much. My regular mechanic is unavailable until next week but on the phone was incredulous that mobile guy suggested it was a £2k fix. My guy suspects maybe stop solenoid.
Pump is Lucas pump. Mobile guy reckons beyond repair. My guy asked me to do some research then get it towed to him next week so he can have a tinker.
Anyone got any experience of this and managed pull it back from the grave??
Hey all
First post here. Currently converting a '98 Dispatch and looking at replacing the existing passenger bench seat with either a single passenger seat, a single passenger swivel seat, or converting the bench into a swivel.
The single passenger seats seem to be like gold dust round here - all the Dispatch/Expert/Scudos for breaking have the bench seats. Are MK2 single passenger seats compatible? And from what I gather 806 seats can also work? Is that specifically 806 front passenger seats? Or any single seat from 806 with subframe and appropriate seatbelt socket? Does year of production factor into this?
What's the score on converting to a swivel? Presumably if I can finally acquire a single passenger seat I can use a universal swivel base? Is there an option to convert the bench to swivel? I can't seem to find anything to facilitate this.
Any and all input vastly appreciated!
✌?
