    Rusty the Autosleeper 2.0

    Question .. Hammerite on the engine: is it specific engine paint or just normal hammered-finish hammerite ? I ask 'cos I was once told it will just burn off owing to engine temp. Lovely looking van ! I like the way you've added the skirt to the body rather than sunk-in as standard :-)

    Zenith Carb / fuel pump issues - hard to diagnose

    Wow ! Never thought i'd share issues with a scorpion tank ! hm i guess it could be something like that although the fella at the garage says he's checked the line and all is well. After posting this, decision made to convert to weber carb (bolt-on conversion) just cos the zenith seems...

    Zenith Carb / fuel pump issues - hard to diagnose

    Hi all I wonder if you can help - our 1725c zenith carb Commer has an intermittent problem: Drive along.. all seems ok.. then he cuts out. It's not an immediate thing, kind of grunts along for 100 feet or so then dies. Checked spark (I thought it was the condenser) - all ok. Condenser...

    Hi and any Mechanics (Jennings Roadranger)

    Sean - Shame you're selling but I can understand it if you're not into the mechanics side. If you can get it started, you'll probably get a lot more for it.

    zenith carb problem (?)

    FYI if it's of help, I got one of these for my Triumph (twin SUs) : http://www.fuelpumpsonline.co.uk/facet-solid-state-fuel-pump-road-40104-15-4psi-5-p.asp I think the recommendation was about 1.5-2 PSI for my carbs, so I fitted this with no regulator- works fine so far. Been going about 9...

    1500 vs. 2500

    Ooo I thought the front springs were different to on 1500 vs 2500 too. In that case, yeah it might be more about maintenance. It's interesting what you say about the oil in the dampers, Panky. When following our commer home (day of purchase, wife driving), I noticed the rear wheels actually...
