Many thanks to Dave and Barbara Timbertech over near Sherwood Forest for all of their excellent work and hospitality! New hightop is fantastic!
July / August 04
We've had a complete Poseidon blue respray, got
rear seatbelts (big thanks to Euan). We also got a bargainous
drive away awning to attach to the van.
May / June 04
Woo Hoo, LPG conversion! - the now runs massively cheaper.
March / April 04
Decided to put it in to the garage for a service
and a new timing belt... Apparently it didn't have a timing belt
as it was air cooled. ?? (Turned out not to be air-cooled at all
- blimey we had a lot to learn!!!)
Next up was the electrics and Leisure battery.
Basically the Leisure battery charges from your engine whilst
driving. (and can also power your fridge with it driving also).
When you park up you can run things like the tap, interior lights
and items like stereo and 12v TV etc. We had all this done and
the dash lights fixed. (They had apparently stopped working because
the guy who had fitted the stereo and pulled the wires with he
stereo cables). Also though we needed a new PCB as the thermostat
didn't appear to work. It turned out it needed a new sender unit.
Had this fitted and all appears to be fine.
