Nobody wants to buy it at £6000, had a few offers of £5000 but I'm not willing to drop a grand ( I offered to meet them half way) I'll probably keep her now and do some work on her over the winter.

I bought the proper blue flexipipe from Martin a while back

Thanks for the info guys , will take a shufti

Hi everyone , my commer has a strong smell of petrol from the rear end , I've changed the elbow going into the petrol tank but the smell is still pretty strong. Do you think my petrol tank has some holes in the top. Cheers for any advise guys.

I have the pictures somewhere , will dig them out, may be some time nextweek add I'm at a festival the weekend

Having real problems fitting front door locks, they just seem really shonky, anyone got some good advice for me, also not entirely sure if I'm missing parts or parts are worn. If someone could tell me how they fit together that would be great, can't find anything on the net. Cheers guys.

Nice 1 , very helpful :)

Ok cheers Panky , I got an oil leak on the gearbox anyway so if it is leaking water behind the flywheel I'll do both jobs at once:)

Hey Colin , I don't think it's the water pump but I'm gonna take a closer look this weekend:)

Thanks for the reply Panky , I'm haven't done an awful lot of mechanics so I'm learning this stuff as I go , are these core plugs problematic to change or expensive ?

I got a leak under the engine , I've checked the hoses and the radiator looks fine , it's not coming from the overflow or the head gasket as that's dry. Can't trace the exact place it's coming from as the drip is dripping of a square plate under the axel. Another thing is it seems to stop...

Got the blue flexible pipe from Martin, top quality , looks like it will last forever:)

I managed to get 3 hub caps from Damian Mullaly , very generous guy from new Zealand. Think he may be on these forums, great bloke :)

Cheers Panky , yeah I contacted Martin he's got the hose.

The flexible pipe on the fuel tank is seeping petrol can I get these anywhere or do I have to order something special. Cheers guys
