Do the whirly lights still work??

Looks pretty solid bodywork wise. I didn't know this had a 2.5TD engine - I bet that goes well.

A good van that, tons of potential!

[bignorm]

not sure about the lights yet Bryan will let u know,as 4 the engine well the night I bought it from a dodgy wee man in ballyclare lol he took us out on a test drive it ran ok up the road so fine I was happy enough,
headed for home a few miles down the road she started losing power an was starting 2 over heat,An I though f++k this thing is 4 shitting it self.
Black smoke filling the motorway at 630 rush hr traffic nightmare ,Anyway nursed her home only because of what she was, she made it.
Parked it in the garage noticed oil drips on the floor, dipped her for oil an I couldn't beleave it filled about a quarter o an inch above max god nos wot she lost coming down the road.so am hoping that was her issue.

cheers davy

Where was it dripping from, did you find the source? Looks well covered around the turbo...

[bignorm]

aye I saw that Kedishen prob coming from that area not sure were never got the chance to get cleaned up.
I thought it was maybe because of the over fill of oil but maybe am wrong ANY IDEAS
