    Celsior Questions

    I have a mate who tows with his Celsior , he runs his trailer at about 40 KG or a bit more ball weight and sez it tows really well , it has enough weight not to be thrown around and of course the rear is self levelling , as long as you fit a decent tranny cooler [ read decent as the biggest one...

    Cat Gutted...No more ***** !! LOL

    Cat Gutted...No more phussy !! LOL My Celsior has gone a little bit down on HP , makes a bit more exhaust noise [ not from a leak but like being stiffled type of thing ] and the economy has suffered a little bit as well . So took the left hand cat off [ and yes it was mostly blocked ] with...

    air suspension leak

    Just to add on a bit , be wary about replacing your unit with a secondhand one , it will be 15 odd years old also and as labour is a major part of the cost why not put something new in there , I mean you would be awfully piissed if you had to do it again in 6 mths !! The name of the place that...

    Celsior 108 KPH Cruise Control Limit

    I have a spare speed control box and when I opened it up hoping that it would be the same as the Soarer unit , with a J300 jumper/switch however I find that it is very similar but not the same...no J300 jumper . However it does have a J1 jumper on it that is closed , my thinking is that the only...

    A/C Leak?

    Jibby I had this problem and had a similar quote , I found the leak by using compressed air to pressurise the system , if it's a small leak then this won't work and they have to put a dye in and charge the system to find the leak , it turned out to be in the condensor under the dash . I found a...
