After a few months of faultless ownership of my lil van, it has now decided to begin to play up just before i head off on the big ol' europe trip this summer.. Today's fun involved discovering that the accellerator cable is buggered. The long and the short of it is that i am in need of a new one and wondered if anyone could recommend the best way to get one asap!! I am thinking Vauxhall garages?? Appreciate your help as ever.. Marcus

Hello Marcus, Do you have a paypal account? I would take water/oil/fan belt/ c.b. points/condenser/clutch cable. I am going away early friday morning myself but can get it in the post before I go. Regards, Derek.

Sorry Marcus, got your message too late. I am off to Liverpool early in the morning so no time to do it. Derek.

ok. well thats a bit of a bugger.. no chance you could put it in the post in Liverpool is there? Just we are due to leave the country next thursday and i refused the offer of one from Vauxhall in favour of getting one from you! no worries if not, i'm sure ill work something out!! Unless you have any other ideas..? Marcus

Sorry I cant because its over in Kent in my yard. I had intended bringing it home today but not having heard from you I didn`t. I should have done on the off chance but I have had a hectic day getting everything sorted before going away. Derek.

Out of interest what happened to the cable you have? one siezed on me as i believe the engine was earthing through it. so i would suggest checking the connections on the engine earth strap, or adding an additional one....
