Talbot Express camper's are great. Not fast but very reliable.

have you done the timing mate? just did mine dose make a difference, esp uphill. Can get mine up to 60, 65 on the flat maybe 70 but dont want to hammer it tbh. my also run on lpg . btw my gearbox wines a bit in nutral. Make sure you change the transmission fluid and put in NEW correct oil amount in think its 1.9 ltrs (pls check though) should help. Dip stick on back of gearbox.

Interesting and helpful video, Thanks. Out of interest , on our Talbot Express we find 5th gear an absolute nightmare to get into 5th gear. The problem is you have to move your knee and leg completely to one side to enable the gear lever to move into 5th gear. Is this the same with your motorhome.
@RSPYT Жыл бұрын
No not really, you might find the gear linkages are worn on your one. They’re common, you can buy the brass bushing and linkages from coastal motor homes 😆😁

The gearbox whine is pretty normal, mine did it so I stripped it to fit new input shaft bearings and clutch, a good check of everything else and new oil and it still did it, been like it 4 years with no change so I wouldn’t worry about it at all.

I had to sell the discovery in 2020 because my wife wanted a new car. I couldn’t afford that without selling my one.

@RSPYT yep that's how it goes sometimes. Watched some of your clips over the past year or so on the discovery. Very handy cheers. Best of luck with the new project.

That’s right, my one will do 60 but I stick to around 50-55 because the revs are too high at 60. I like to look after the old engine and keep the revs low 😂😁
