Hi, Just as an update it was the Lucas 25 D4 many thanks for your help. My mechanic says since I'm getting the shoes re-lined it would be a good idea to fit a new 'drive shaft oil seal', not sure where to get one for my model so if anyone could make any recommendations as to compatible parts I...

Hi everyone, we’re looking for a mechanic who can help with our 1972 Commer PB Highwayman in South Lincolnshire (near Spalding) as our previous mechanic didn't really understand older vehicles. If anyone has recommendations for someone suitable, we’d be very grateful, thank you.

Ah ok, I think it’s between trying to repair the current aftermarket fuel relay or reverting it back to how it was. From what you’ve said that sounds the easier option. Thank you for your help again.

Hello Everyone, My mechanic said that I need a new front (after manifold) gasket for my Commer PB Highwayman 1972 as there is a spark that occurs making it dangerous. Not sure where to buy the correct version as he said his parts supplier would not be able to source this as too old. If anyone...
