Hi Chris, that's a good point. I have been thinking that myself. I was considering cutting out the bit that's really bad and painting the rest with rust-eating hammerite. Seems that the area behind the cover is prone to bunging up with all kinds of crap from the road as I had to dig the pipe...

Cheers Majic, I'll order a nice spangly new one from the stealers.

Hi folks. After noticing some diesel dripping away after filling up the bus,it turns out that the fuel filler pipe has corroded away to porous heaven. If anyone has one lying around (which is structurally sound) for a 1999 3 litre diesel colorado, can you pm me your contact details pleeeeaase...

Excellent description Roger. I can see it all clearly now. Sometimes my old brain just takes a bit of a kickstart to get moving properly.

Very clever ideas. Having not attempted this kind of thing before, could you possibly draw a "numpty" diagram to show how the heat exchanger would be plumbed in to the system. I'm guessing the main feed would from the heating pipe would pass through the exchanger and continue on its merry way...

May be worth spraying some contact/switch cleaner in the switch itself. If there is any corrosion or dirt in switches they can cause mayhem. My old frontera was a friggin nightmare when it came to the indicators more or less pleasing themselves. Just a thought, if its just the headlights...

Actually they are quite good. I was intending on putting them on anyway so to have them come with the truck was a bonus. Yep a good rack is a must methinks. Had roof bars on my old fronty and it's amazing how handy they are for everyday use such as visits to B&Q for that oversized sheet of...

Here's a few pics Sorry for the delay, christmas and all that entails. Been busy on the inside and will add a few more pics when it stops raining (who would have thought it would be raining in Scotland). :pray: The rack is not very good and is made from wood and other bits and will have to...

Any further forward with the mod yet? It's taking shape and will look really cool once covered.

I have a JVC KD-DB52 which I bought around 3 months ago to put in my peugeot 406. It's a terrific unit and plays almost anything as well as linking up to the ipod. Halfords were selling them for £150-ish at the time, reduced from over £300. Don't understand why it has a remote control though as...

Turns out it must have been wet from shoes and rubber mat holding the water in. Removed the mat and its all dried up. Happy days. Terrific car so chuffed to bits with it. Just need to swap the stereo for a DAB so I can get Absolute 80's blasting out. :clap::dance: Will post up some pics soon...

Sounds like it could be the problem. I'll give it a looksee. Thanks for the input lads. Regards, Gazzbo
