I could be anyone from anywhere calling up charging to a company. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllTorque Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I took this to work and gave it a WOF today. It certainly got a lot of looks around the mean streets of Porirua. The young fullas (and a couple of old boys) at work were pining hard, then I flicked switches for the bitches and their heads exploded. Oh, and my neighbour asked if the owner was going to do it up. IT IS DONE UP! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaMpylobacter Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 have you fitted an oil temp or cylinder head temp gauge to this? VW foamer guy at work with a few kombis reckons you need all the engine cowlings fitted that kinda 'seal' the engine bay from the outsdie world to make sure they keep themselves cool. i.e, if you can readily see the road through the engine bay then you're missing heaps. heavy little mobiles for the engines to chop along so i can kinda sympathise with them! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stylez Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Cool bus mate. Just read the whole thread, sounds like you've had a bit of a rough ride with it. They can be a bit temperamental to say the least if not looked after properly (P.O's not you). When I bought my beetle I was told to always be sure to have spare plugs, points, condensor, rotor, cap, etc with me all the time. I suppose by now you've figured all that shit out. Hopefully you've also figured out why people like them so much You could always just take a spare engine with you next time... Check out these fellas : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gKF6dcKjLJo Oh, and if you want to change your generator belt, don't even worry about turning your engine off. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BQhfcdQf1QA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mof Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Hey man any luck with your pressure switch? I had to find one a while back for a 5th wheel trailer on bags The only one i found that switched at correct pressure (80/90-110 psi) was from ARB for diff locks, Peter Munro in chch. But other 4wd places should be able to get them. Cool van mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
