  1. Hate to say it but I was watching 'wheeler dealers' and he talked about replacing the water coolant with another non water based coolant that performed so much better. Anyone used this stuff if so what is it. Going to put it in my Bedford mw. 

  2. The problem I am having is the spark plugs oil up. It was suggested a modern plug which burned hotter would at least in part solve the problem. Does not have to be a screened plug. 

    When I take it on a long journey no problem. It's the short journeys which seem to cause the trouble. 

  3. I own an mw and I use the following procedure. Firstly strictly stick to the procedure set out by Richard Farrant.

    if this doesn't work. .......... Give it three verbal warnings, each warning should be more obusive than the last. Should this fail shout 'right that's it' and thrash the vehicle with a branch. As recommended by basil faulty. 

    It may not work but it will cheer up people that are watching.

  4. I have a Daimler dingo mk2. The vehicles has an ac fuel pump which needs rebuilding. 

    Does anyone know where I can get a rebuild kit for it. The pump is an early one which has the fibre type valves not the button type. Looked at champ spares but he has shut down until the new year.

    alternatively does anyone have a spare pump available?

     

  5. I have a Daimler dingo mk2 which has an electric fuel pump fitted too it. The pump appears to be pushing too much fuel into the carbuettor. I have decided to change it back to the original fuel pump. Does anyone know the part number?

    Second question. The distributor is not original, having been replaced by a conventional distributor off a Bedford I think. I want to replace with an electronic system. Any ideas who does the best one for it.
