The Dispatch | Expert | Scudo Hub

Found them thanks for a post on bookface! :-P https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131951743760

Probably still having a happier life than me   I might get there eventually Or a hut a field with at least 4g wind/rain/sun power... block of trees in somemething as a bit of protection... lol...dreams...

Speaking of bulbs, anyone know what the wee ones that go in the heater control panel are? Not sure I can even get LED that would fit in there lol.

Just noticed this, on small screenon garage pc lol - aye let me look in to it, but need to make sure casper or whoever is admin sorts me with code for his ad revenue side, I'm not interested in making anymoney out it, just good to help the community.

Because we're all skinflints and up north now full of english doing the exact same thing, but with bigger fancier, non-stealth setups lol :-P

Lol ok bud, just assumed Alva near Stirling :-P

I'd just do injector 1 (driver side) and see if fuel comes out when cranking, if not its probably the stop solenoid, on my van it's the lucas fuel pump and I had to hack through the sheilding/armour to get to/remove the solenoid, I then replaced that with a £4 ebay one and wired it to the 12v reverse switch feed at the gearbox, which comes on and off with the ignition, it's worked fine since but I did have to crack all the injectors and do quite a bit of turning over till they were all leaking fuel, after which it started no problem and has been fine since.

Note: Doing it my way will disable the immobiliser, but meh, who wants to steal/joyride a slow as hell dispatch anyway? lol.

I'm quite tight and will try to fix this van before totally giving up and then looking for another lol

When you get too much pedal travel there's not enough left on the front lol, I think I've done 15K since I done the front disks pads on mines, still look new (It was drivetec stuff), although for the wear sensor I cut the plug off the end and joined the wires, it's fairly east to tell when they need changed as they have much more travel in the pedal.

Wow loads of response, Thank you all and especially John DragonMan, I owe you a pint!!!! - yes mate, It's bar 2, I was thinking of using Tigerseal as well LOL, how is it holding up? - The only thing with mines is that rear subframe has so much rust, I can see me getting that bar out causing more problems, but I suppose, what have i got to lose, it's not gonna pass with that bar gubbed so it's worth having a go!

I do like the van all be it slow and would really like try get get another year out it, it's the ultimate bangernomics things for me, I think io paid £100 or £150 for it, have maybe spent 200 on it if you ignore the camper basics and aye, it just plods along lol, I like old stuff like this (as my 21 year old golf continues to live strong lol) I think if I can get the van to pass this year I might then take the time on it, try get a better used front/rear subframe as that's not got much left in it on the front one, but body is strong on sills etc etc, chassis rails in engine bay not too bad etc etc.....trying to convince my self here lol :-P

Still have this if anyone wants it, or it may soon be cut up in to legs for washing machine drum wood burners... lol
