  5. g day matey i dont get on as often as i should congrats on the new bus dont panic when you read the post i made its all to help cheers buddy ps is this your first diesel ive had modified cars all my life and i found the lack of power frightening when overtaking from 90 to 110 \ks but have done a couple of improvements but its still not a 350 or 400 chev lol

  6. i might just call you gas for short :D the main thing is to keep your cooling system spotless, dont panic when i say this. but they do have a habit of heads cracking between valves, coolant condition and lack of maintenance the main cause .timing belt can be an issue zero clearance motor a good idea to fit a new timingbelt if you dont have a previous service history of the vehicle. the auxilary drve shaft or sads coupling can get a nasty rattle up, which would mean replacing the flexible coupling joint. regular servicing of the fuel filters is a must also on fuel side their is a mesh cone shaped filter under the stop solenoid of injector pump remove and dicard . :o :o :o dont panic or stress B) alot of these things go wrong due to bad maintenance or at worst sheer bad luck. will post some more photos as information enjoy your bus i have had 3 years of trouble free motoring just keep maintenance up cheers trevor

  9. so bloody sorry i havnt been on been a bit ill then i forgot my password Im in the same position need new header tank ( expansion bottle ),cheapest option is to source one from a wreckers, or a vehicle with same amount and size outlets also make sure radiator cap is same pressure. Centre bearing i havnt done yet, but there should be a number on the bearing to take to your local supplier, or a second hand option from the wreckers.
  10. secret.... toyota mr sports steering wheelboss similar year but you need to run a dished wheel so you can use lights correctly B)
  11. g dat matey see what i can do is it a petrol or deisel 3ct or 3cte most of my experience is with the 3cte ( battery ) possibly alternator not charging correct voltage , batterys can discharge through the system over a long period of time vd lol voltage drop checking complete system only option.some times battery plates fuse together creating a dead cell hence battery fault, not enough voltage to crank. possible fault with alternater diodes or charging circuit or voltage regulator. doors well I will work on that one. probably a faulty acututor or not adjusted properly. running rough; if it is a diesel possiblely glow plug fault because its cold, incorrect voltage to heating rail or for glow plugs. or broken wire which is an intermitten fault in the wiring. check for continuity with volt metre or multi metre. engine idling; low drone possibly engine oil, top up resevoir, if fitted. also check fuel screen in sender unit of fuel tank. sometiems something can be sucked up under motion and unstick when still and vice versa. just let me know if its a diesel or petrol. cheers Ledgend
