  1. Hi McBrush No wonder your friend in Adelaide has never seen snow. If he's a CROWS fan he must be blind.:dancefool: By the way it is a balmy 31 degrees c in Adelaide today, might take the gen 1 out for a spin. KEEP THE BLACK BITS DOWN

  5. HI THERE I was wondering if anybody could help me locate the black rubber moulds that go on the top and bottom of the chrome strip at the base of the windscreen on an 86 venture. I have tried all the local dealers here in Adelaide and am told they are no longer available. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. :fiddle: KEEP THE BLACK BITS DOWN
  6. I have fitted an auxilary tank in my trailer. I used rubber fuel line with a marine quick connector, and an inline electric pump. I dissconected the breather tube from the top of the main tank and connected the aux. Line here, then drilled a 1/16 hole in the top of the filler neck to act as a vent. So far i have covered about 15000kms. In 18 months and had no problems wih the instalation. One advantage is my mates dont get p....d off with me any more, because i dont have to stop for fuel every 120-150 kms.
