What brand was the compressor that failed, if names can be made?
Dunlop

New set of tyres is needed..

I did do a small trip to wales for a bit of a break..

Nabbed some shots.

My rear bumper is held on with zipties, the mounts need welding..

And she needs a respray..

Hmm..

Counting coin!

Great work

She looks pucker!

I like the placement of the LPG Filler, mine is in the bottom of my bumper, and a right pain to do..

Shame about the biblical weather though!!!!!!

Rock and a hard place lol Richard!

It doesn't look like i've taken it apart lol

So i hope the chap closes one eye and squints when he looks it over ;)

The compressor is a brand new unit Richard

I haven't touched it!

Just inspected it!

My old one had a failed bearing..

I agree 100%

Valveblock needs a rebuild, I believe..

Found the problem

Brand new!

CRAP!

Drove her 68mi to Borth for a break..

Half way home the EAS plummets to the bumpstops and the compressor is scalding hot, so i'm assuming it was feeding a leak..

Being that she sits fine without dropping would the next port of call be the Valve-block seals?

From what I understand it'll go on the wobbly if the compressor overheats too many times?

Bastard thing had to drive home 30mi on the bumpstops.

I'm considering it due to the fact most Autogas services in my neck of the woods have disappeared.

From what i can gather from my "brief" looking into the subject, you can have one installed..

There are some guideline's i'm sure, any Autogas pros have any advice?

We have 2 1200 IIRC tanks that supply gas for a central heating..

Are these the same Tanks that can be used if filling a vehicle?

New hancook Mf31-1000 bought!

I get that you're saying and you'r absolutely right!

I might get a solid workshop in the future!

Great work.

Better nick than my comets!

Looks superb

Gotta love the Alveston red!

Yep it is now bubbling like a mofo "more than usual" and it won't charge above 11v!

TYRES!!

lol

Right today after 15hrs it's stone dead again..

The odd thing is though..

The battery is showing 12.4v but she won't turn over..

With the ignition on the volts drop to 9v.

so i'm assuming that means the battery is toast?

If you have replaced everything then the next logical step IMO is tyres..

The tyres on mine originally were "diaphragming" in and out as she went down the road..

The sidewalls were like jelly..

This caused a steering wander and slight play in the steering,

With a new set of Nexans the steering on mine is sublime..

Steaming the old foam makes it plump up..

The switch was definitely off

I'll have to have a look at the wiring..
