Nope. There are just 2 really long bolts that attach the starter motor. The trick is to undo the connections to the solenoid without getting carpal tunnel syndrome.

Also, once the starter motor is off, it might be a good time to install a block heater. Talk to Glen at CCAutos, he'll sort you out.

The leak is gone and the van is working fine now. The water drain unit was broken, I suppose the filter hadn't been changed in too long and me mucking about tipped it over the edge. Got a new water drain, it went in no problem, since then all's well. Thanks all!

I've taken the whole filter assembly off (disconnected fuel lines, disconnected the wires that run to the plastic plug at the bottom of the filter) taken the whole thing out, removed the filter, the drain at the bottom. Made sure everything was set up right, that the o-ring was seated properly, and ...

I tried cracking the injectors to bleed the air out of the fuel system, does anyone know of another way to do it?

I will try cracking the injectors to bleed the air out. When I undid the bleeder bolt and pumped the plunger there were no air bubbles coming out where the bleeder bolt was, but there was fuel dripping from the water valve underneath the filter. Is that normal? Thanks for the advice on how to change...

Hello! So I'm planning a wee trip on the weekend, thought I'd do some pro-active maintenance. Changed my air filter, felt pretty good about it. Today I decided to change the fuel filter. Got the NAPA one. Turns out this is a very unpleasant job (at least for me). It was hard to get the filter wrench...

The Delica works great in Calgary. I've got the lower rad hose heater and good batteries so even though it may take a while to get started, started it gets. The 4wd is pretty critical, especially with all the ice. Every once & a while I think perhaps I'll drop it back into 2wd for a bit, but in ...

A side note: at 8am this morning there was no snow anywhere. There's now 2 inches and falling thicker every moment. So as long as I can find a window and someone with a flux-capacitor enabled transport, this problem will have already been solved hours ago! I was looking forward to rippin' around in ...

Thanks for the great info konadog & Luna-Sea, I appreciate it. Hopefully I can source a new window quickly. Senseless acts of destruction, so disruptive and a great pain in the ass. And we all know how useless insurance is about these things... Cheers though, and may all your Delicas remain unmo...

Well, early this morning I wake up from dreams of skiing (where I had planned to go today) to the sound of a loud crashing noise. I look outside and a guy is throwing a metal trashcan at the passenger's side sliding door window of my Delica. Repeatedly. I hastily dress, grab a ski pole as some sort ...

Those photos look great! I imagine a good time was had by all. Would have liked to attend but alas I was tied up in other things. Who knew there were any unimogs in Alberta?

Looking forward to the next meet!

Pulled into the parking area at the hotel and saw a dark grey exceed with black bush bars and BC plates. Nice ride, hope the stay in town was a good one!

I've taken a look at the battery tray and tie downs, they seem to be in good order. I'll clean the corroded areas with baking soda/water and I'll then at least be able to tell if the problem is getting worse or not. I have yet to take the front light out to check the wiring for the DRL, but I shall ...

Well, some strange goings on have been going on with the Bork. I would appreciate any input/insight into what may be happening to my van. Earlier in the summer I was moving, lots of trips, stops & starts, about 30 min each way, over 2 week period. When it was finally over, I spent a few days wit...

November sounds good to me, haven't been able to make it to a meet yet, but can't wait to check it out!

Cheers all!
