Finnaly got me charger back in my workshop after about 9 months of it sitting in another shed and no work being done to her.

Got a few parts building up now so should be able to crack on.

Well that's disappointing Craig, I thought you would have had that old bus cracked by now!

Just a little observation, what's happening with the throttle and the kickdown linkage?
The pump don’t work coz the vandals took the handles.

Do you have a close up?

Looks like you have a Lokar throttle cable with no set up for kickdown, which could be a bit iffy on a stock set up.

But it could just be me being an old fool as usual! :D

If ive got it all set up wrong could you take some pics and show me how it should be, thanks.

Tightened the torsion bars up a bit so it sits much better now, as it was slammed to the ground before.

really must clean the inch layer of dust of it.

Thanks Adam, you're a pal...I can see that now!

I thought he had a Lokar throttle cable and no kickdown, but I can see now he's got a Lokar kickdown cable...nowt wrong with that, as long as long as it's set up properly.:thumbright:
