Cheers, i know all about britpart, i'm about half way thru a rebuild of a 90 thats only taken me 10 years so far :P Having said that, i've just ordered an oil pressure switch off ebay and it'll no doubt turn out to be a britpart one. I'd ordered one from Eurocarparts but the part they got in was completely wrong, so got annoyed and just hit up ebay instead. The choice seemed to be £3 for a cheap one or 10 times that for genuine.

The leak appeared to start exactly at the oil switch, and removing the switch exposed a properly bodged seal where some idiot had fitted both an oring and a copper washer, and clobbed hylomar blue all over it for good measure, so fingers crossed that was the cause.

I'll probably fit a stainless system to it, as i fancy a bit of exhaust tone, but in the mean time i've bodged the two small holes with some epoxy putty.

My plan is to get it on the road and put some miles on it and make sure its all good, then if it seems alright, i'll look at tidying up some bits like it needs a tailgate and the exhaust etc. I just dont want to pour too much money into it and then find out the engines smoked or something. I've bought it to replace my Vauxhall Monterey, which i've used for 2 years mainly for towing, but its rusty and a bit knackered and i fancied something a bit more worthwhile. I've bought the monterey, spend two years fixing stuff etc, and realised its not worth a penny more than i paid for it, and even then i'm struggling to sell it. At least with the rangey i'm adding value.

I've found genuine NTK direct fit lambdas online for about £60 each, so not toooo bad if it turns out to be those... First job though is to feed it a new set of spark plugs.

The orange bits next to the fogs appear to be just reflectors. No idea if someones stuck them on or what.

The dangling wires are from the fogs. I had the bumper off removing the brackets from a nasty bullbar thing and just hadnt plugged them back in.

It was bought on ebay for £360. It was reported to have a crank sensor fault caused by a leaking rear main seal and had been parked up for a while.

Thus far i've given it a new set of front shocks (turned out the old ones were fine, one had just come off its lower mount?!), and a new crank sensor (the old one wasnt even oily) and stuck it in for an MOT.

It failed on brake issues (accumulator) some exhaust leaks, and a few minor things like bulbs and a broken seatbelt catch. There was a fairly significant oil leak which appeared to be coming from the oil filter area and seems to have been caused by the oil pressure switch. It also seems to be running very rich.

Just signed up after chris pointed me in this direction.

Need to get some pics of the new bus, only got this one for now:
