[DRIVING] 1978 VW T2 Camper

CCS controller and inlet is in. Kit at eDubs posted a video before I picked her up.

Next I need to improve the brake pump with the vacuum sensor I got from Citini, then it will be time for an interior.

New vacuum sensor from Citini (attached to the blue manifold). Works a treat - I am now getting about 7 seconds pump run time every 24 seconds, which may indicate a slight vacuum leak but it will do for now.

Glad to see them in the wild, switches are quite finicky compared to a digital solution.

Hi DaveH, just scanned through your build posts. I’m at the start of my VW conversion so it’s good to see someone reach the other end!

Can I ask whether it went ok with the dvla in the end? You’ve obviously got a super clean, as new looking vehicle. I’m debating what level of restoration to go for, but I can see it might make the inspector more inclined to pass it if he thinks the vehicle overall is in good shape. Or do you think they have a narrow focus on just the EV bits of the vehicle?

2nd question is are you happy with the brake vacuum pump? Would love to have a link to what you bought if possible. Any changes you’d do if you did it again?

Are you using it regularly now? What’s your range like?

Cheers
Ian
