Which leaves the one right on top free How many lines does it have?  I'm spotting 4. In from tank, out to pump/rail, overflow back to tank and return from rail/fpr.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shizzl Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 So that goes back to the main tank then? Like teaching an old dog new tricks right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cletus Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Have a read of the CCM fuel system chapter as well, a surge tank will either need to be inside a sealed box with a drain to outside , or you will need to seal the boot from the passenger compartment 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ul9601 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Googled for sunroof, LVVTA has a story that a cert is not required if the fitting has not weakened vehicle structure, pointing to note 1 per below: Note 1 - Weakening the vehicle structure: Heating, drilling, welding or cutting the vehicle structure, modifying a roof bow, or modifying any part of the structure would be considered to weaken it. Cutting a single layer of unstressed panel steel (i.e. roof) is not considered to weaken the vehicle structure. Drilling a hole suitable for a child restraint top tether does not require LVV certification But if I was to have an exiting sun roof removed and have a sheet welded (or somehow attached to the rest of the roof panel), which may involve heating, drilling or welding, would that require a cert? Reading that "cutting roof" is not considered to weaken the vehicle structure, would I be correct that having the area (sort of) restored with a steel sheet put back where the sunroof was involving the aforementioned procedure would not be considered to weaken the vehicle structure either? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cletus Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 I would think that would be a repair not a modification 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePog Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Does anyone here know about truck/ht stuff? I have various questions to do with my sisters vehicles. Firstly, her bus has failed its cof, not on rust as expected, but on the front seats. They want them certed, but they have been there passing cof's for 20+ years. I am baffled by this and want to know if this is legit... Secondly, her new truck has no deck. There are a few deck possibilites at the truck wreckers in Taranaki, but it might be a better result to build one to suit here. I am happy to do this. I have been told that the deck itself does not need a cert but any tie down points will do. If this is the case then I have a plan, a local firm is happy to install some certed tie down points on an existing deck. Give me the knowledge.

yoeddynz Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 You can do your own tie down points etc and there is a local fella, very friendly and helpful, who will certify them. I'll find his number and pass it on to you. Â 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cletus Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Always be wary of a car dealer selling cars that are not complied. It may just be they cbf, but more often it's the fact they know there's something wrong with it . Otherwise if it was easy they would just get it complied and legal and sell at a greater profit  2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mof Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Isn't it a no impact, no abs therefore no compliance type deal?  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cletus Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 There may be less things it has to comply with if it's over 20 years old, but it still has to be complied. Rust or previous damage/repairs is usually the biggest headache 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 @Leone RE; your comment in the nats thread "Failed wof, one bulb, gearbox mount and have to remove the big sticker that takes up most the back window, rememberance sticker for my mate who fixed the 1st lot of rust... RIP, i dont really want to take it off but i will to get the bloody wof... maybe he will let it slide if i do the rest... hmmph " I don't think that should be a fail but others here will know more. From what I know if you have two working side mirrors you should be fine. My '87 van has a sheet of steel instead of a rear window and its never been an issue. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllTorque Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 His car is a wagon, not a van. Wagon is a passenger vehicle and cannot have stickers, except for within 100mm of the edge. FAIL 3 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igor Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Take the back seat out and called it a commercial vehicle. Plenty of dealers did that in the mid 80's to enable their customers to dodge new car sales tax. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Dad bought a brand new 1983 bluebird with no rear seat for that reason. Then got a rear seat added later on - in vinyl. Which was dangerous to legs on a hot day 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
