This makes interesting reading. I used to hear the fan kick in but have not heard it for some years. Is there a way I can test it still works?

Where does it come out under the chassis? I have the wire just cant find a way through from the dash to under the vehicle.

It is yes, but on most vehicles without a rev counter (particularly early ones) VW didn't fit a complete loom in which case all you can do is run a new cable underneath. Thats what I had to do. Which is what i am going to have to do. The only thing is i cannot for the life of me find a way to get t...

I have owned a Westy for 8 years and people have always said they are increasing in value. I think that is an urban myth created by my fellow Westy owners. Granted they may retain their value but I cannot say I have really seen any increase in value in the last 8 years. My personal opinion is that y...

Oop! That was a "denseware" fault I meant amps not mm. Sorry folks!

16mm, 21mm or 30mm please?

Many thanks

many thanks. That helps.

So if i put my green wire to the pin 1 on the coil can i then just put the red coil wire direct to the battery + and the black direct to the battery negative and get the tacho working?

Hi, How can i tell which is the positive and negative terminals on the coil please? I am attempting to install a tacho and need to attach the green wire from the tacho to the negative terminal. My terminals are labelled either 1 or 15 with a green wire currently going to 1 and a number of black wire...

Just about to get mine done as well. Was thinking of using Schofield parts Any thoughts.

Great thanks Big Herb. Seems relatively straightforward then.
cheers

I have one of those £8 tachos on order and have searched Wiki for a wiring diagram but can't find one.

I have an 84 1.9dg with ceramic fuses. Can anyone please tell me how to wire in a tacho?

thanks

thanks folks. One of my neighbours is a plumber and he came round yesterday. It appears my biggest problem is that we only have a 15 mm gas feed and most modern boilers require a 22mm. Because of the layout of our house the gas feed runs under the floor boards on the first floor so is really difficu...

That will be for the combi version, most combi boilers when the kW is over 24, the heating side will still be 24. For 99% of houses that have a combi you will never need over 24kw for the heating. For the hot water side, the higher the kW the faster you can run the tap. I have a 30cdi combi at home...

A Worcester 30ri is a nice compact boiler and will fit in a Nehctik cupboard. They also sell one called a 30cdi regular which has bigger dimensions so won't fit in a cupboard. That one also comes as a 40kw. 30kw should be enough.. You need to know how many rads you have and kw total of them. To giv...
