Hope I'm in the right section! Admins please advise if not.
So after my intro, I decided to start a thread to highlight how things go with my new purchase , quite a few niggles to sort, but hey can't complain as budget decrees......
The Jalopy is a 2002 Laika motor home on an Iveco Daily twin rear wheels. Purchased on 28/04/17 with just about 100k miles on it. 2.8TD , Fiat or Ford? Not sure.... But think Fiat.... Got a full cambelt kit change and oil and filter into the deal, no idea yet of cambelt intervals , but should be good for a few years.
Jobs to do?
General clean up of exterior , done front, well bonnet and lower trim today. Little by little is the way! Big beasties these, lol
Electric step not working, got a plastic two step for now . Looks very neglected does the mechanism .
Radio signal is very weak and the CD just shows 'disc error ' when loaded. Blaupunkt unit.
Got a feint whiff of diesel fumes in the cabin on start up.
The idea is to update this as a sort of 'blog' as things progress...... Hope that's okay?
Thanks for looking.
