Hi, my name is Roger, I live in Bairnsdale and I am the happy (or mostly happy) owner of a 1995 T4 dual cab chassis. This has been the best work vehicle I have ever owned (I'm a professional handyman). But ALAS! My gearbox is dying and I need a replacement at a reasonable price (have been quoted $2750 for a recon or $1600 for second hand). Either recon or secondhand still gets a bit expensive once labour is added. Does anyone have a good secondhand box at a more reasonable price?
Also, just lately the engine has developed a strange and annoying ssymptom. After running for a few minutes or more and then switching off, when you restart it seems to have a vapourlock for about 30 seconds ie it starts okay, but if you try to drive off straight away it backfires and nearly stalls. The only way to avoid this is to sit and run the engine until it runs smoothly (about 30 secs). Does anyone know what is causing this? Grateful for any advice. Roger
