The breather pipe from #4 cylinder to the bottom of the oil filler pipe is blocked, take it off and clean it out or it will happen again.

Taken straight from the factory workshop manual, spark plugs are Bosch W225 T 1.

After having had a couple of petrol Pinnies, when I rebuilt the ex-MOD 716 I decided for once it would be nice to have a bit more power than I needed rather than not quite enough, and not being a great fan of the 2.4 VW I considered the BMW to be the best option, it proved itself last weekend towing...

Hi David. I've had a few ex Swedish 716s and some 718 fire engines through my shop and these were all fitted with 235/85/16s, and they all drove very well on them. My own P93 716 came fitted with 825/16 michelin XZLs but after fitting the 3litre BMW turbo diesel all it did was spin the rear wheels :...

On 710 and 712 I always fit 265/75/16 these give the same rolling dia. as the origional Maloyas, on 716 and 718, P80 and P90, 235/85/16 and on P93s 285/75/16. My personal preference is BFG mud terrain, these were factory fit on the last Pinzgauers produced and I find them the best compromise tyre. (...

Hi Dave. Here are some pictures of my 712 Ambulance/Camper, might give you a few ideas.

PM sent.

Yes !!

Hi Dave.
Look forward to seeing you there, there will be plenty of room by us for the tent, we're there sunday to sunday, easiest way is to give me a ring when you get there and I'll let you know which field we're in.
Cheers Nigel.

Hi Dave
Been there done it!! I'll send you some pictures, are you coming to Beltring ? I'll be there with the camper if you want to take a look and get some ideas.
Cheers Nigel.

But not that much bigger !!

I've got the same model, mine is still in the box aswell, I will get round to building it one day. ( I've already got the illuminated magnifying glass, it will be needed !! )

True, it's not cheap, some people just prefer to drive diesels, they like the torque characteristics of a diesel engine. The other economy option is LPG, 60p per litre!! and coversion cost of around 1500 Gbp, doesn't take long to get that back.
