I have placed the inflation valve next to the fuel filler behind the flap. I have noticed that when the wheels are on the ground the bags are a little loose in ...

Re: Coolant Change

Re: burning smell when going up very steep hill!!
I have noticed this when going up some steep passes in europe. I put it down to the spongy matting on the plastic undertray being contaminated by oil spills on it and getting hot then smelling.

Suspension springs.

I have found a second hand relay on *bay for £15 so I'll try that and see what happens.

Glow plug relay
Hi All, Bongo failed to start for the first time this week. Its a diesel turbo 4wd aft 1995. I have so far: Checked feed to glow plug rail using multimeter, zero.
