Thanks so much for the help on this; clearly I’m not alone which puts me at ease a little. I’ll pull it all apart and give everything a good clean and see how that goes - if that fails I’ll open her up and look inside as well but by the sound of it I’ll no doubt get it going once all the pipes...

So our lovely Dormobile is sitting outside a little unloved as it's bloody freezing due to the Propex heater not working - I'm getting no heat from the engine either but that's another matter. The heater was giving me the 2 LED flash so I assumed it was the Butane at fault due to the cold but...

Great; can I have a price on those quarters then please? Inc P&P to Sheffield thanks.

Thanks for the info. I know it’s never going to be a rocket ship and I don’t want to go crazy, just make it a bit easier to live with on long journeys. I’ll swap the exhaust and throw a couple of carbs on it and see how I get on. Anyone know anywhere around Sheffield that can fit and get the...

We’ve just returned from our first outing in the bay and have a few questions re: increasing power. Apologies if this stuff’s been done to death, I’m pretty new to all of this. The van has a 1641 Twin Port “Big Bore” which was fitted 4 years ago and, according to the history had forged pistons...

Hi all; I'm Paul from Sheffield. I used to have a 1972 1200 Beetle and always fancied a camper at some point. I've just bought a 1971 Dormobile crossover and am looking forward to getting out and about in it as much as possible - as well as doing it up along the way.
