HI guys
Any recommendations for getting some bodywork done, Central South England? Although will travel for the right job done.
Various bits need doing, A pillars both sides and around windscreen, usual stuff, then overspray all over.
Would value your input for a good job.

Re: MV Engine solution required!
Hi Guys Sorry for the delay in replying. AdyJoad at Boxwagen sorted the van out, I know it was a bit of a pain, but he was meticulous and did a really good job. :D Swapped the whole fuel injection system over at one point or another including the loom. Everything went back to original apart from new...

Re: Any tips on tank strap removal?
To be fair it is the bottom section of the strap that is shot, cos i'd bought some new stainless ones thought i'd fit the whole lot......................sparkly things my precious and all that :twisted: Tank out is a bit further than I had planned to go, just trying to restore practicality Thanks :ok

Re: MV Engine solution required!
Did you clean the connectors on the fuel pump Ady? No, not yet was going to tackle that when the new tank straps go on. If it was the fuel pump connectors would it not happen more readily? It does only die when it gets warm? It then works fine if you turn the engine on and off again? (resetting sen...

Re: MV Engine solution required!
Hi Ady thanks for the offer on the ECU I have PM'd you. I did disconnect the 02 / Lambda sensor completely, didnt have one on it at all for the first couple of years I had the van, always ran well, only put it on to see if it would improve the MPG!

Re: MV Engine solution required!
Guys
Thanks for the replies and checking out the ECU availability.
Just as a matter of interest what is the difference between a DJ loom and an MV loom, apart from the obvious lambda senor port?
Could they be swapped and discard the Lambda?

Re: how do I test my rear diff lock?
Has it worked in the past? When we first took the van out for a run when we bought it, to test it out it engaged but not very smoothly. When I renewed the starter motor, had to remove it to fit it, checked it out then, switched/vacuum pushed the actuator pin in and out. It has worked since............
