Help please - I am not having a good day!
The balancer belt snapped on my JB500. The workshop have replaced belts, pulley and tensioner but the engine won't turn over. BTW I am in Scotland.
One option is to have the garage remove the engine and either rebuild it or replace it. This is the...
I get that this message is not about the usual turbo pressure or intercooler stuff but....
I moved house in Scotland a few weeks ago and only have my JB500 here. So it is doing the grocery shopping trips and hardware store runs. But every time I start the engine I crack a big smile. I get...
Fantastic. I gave up on the kitchen extractor and put in an in-line unit, retaining the outside plastic cover. The original fan must be 25 years old. Time to replace.

Nulla has done lots of cool stuff to his JB500. I have just fixed the broken stuff - but that has still added up to £6000 in 3 years.

All my wiring and fuses are under the side bench seat. The ignition feed runs to the fridge and...
I am not exactly local...in Scotland UK.
But I can give you an opinion and you could phone me.
It would work ok for two adults and a kid of 4 to adult sleeping over the cab. There is no adult privacy so I added an awning for my daughter which worked fine. If your kids are small then two...
Yep. Nulla and I agree. This year my car has been off the road because uk road tax on a 3.7 litre is expensive, especially under lockdown when I dont go out. So my jb500 has been used since March. Not quick, but I really enjoy driving it. Good in snow too. If you want i have a blog...
Hi Macleod,
The gas solenoid has a rocker switch and a push to make switch. You need to switch the rocker then push the second switch too.
Instructions for removing the fridge are on my blog. The hard part is to reach under the sink and remove the screws that go through the wooden cabinet...
