Hi we are very newbies to what i hope will be an enjoyable experience, we have returned to the UK after having lived for over ten years in the Algarve so if anybody wants to know anything then i am your man. The Algarve has changed a lot since we first moved there for the worse i am afraid to say mainly due to silly laws and regs but the big one is the GNR. Thats enough of that we have very nearly finished our Boxer conversion we did not have the funds for a motor home (Algarve !) but thats another story so hence the conversion.The van is a 2.5 non-turbo year 2000 my question is that leaving parked over night it starts no problem but if you drive straight away it cuts out after approximately 2/3 minutes if how ever after the first start you let it idle for 5 minutes and then drive of its fine,this morning before starting i thought i would see if there was any water in the fuel filter but hey presto no water and no fuel ! So i presume the fuel is draing back into the tank over night has any body come across this problem at all. Sorry to ramble on and on.
