  1. Hi. I used to own your Foden FH70 Limber.I was the second owner and when I bought it, it used to leak fuel into the sump from the fip. I didn't attend to this and just gave it 18 oil and filter changes in 14 months.I had the injectors serviced and fitted a brand new lift pump( not needed but I have the old one (good working order) if you will pay the postage). I replaced the clutch brake diaphram ( a cnut of a job) and serviced the vehicle to death. The owner after me I know nothing about but believe Simon, who you bought it off looked after it well, having meet him once. It used to leak air from the 5th tank causing gear changing problems around town. I sold it to Dave Crouch complete with spare reconditioned engine ( Rolls 305 ... actually 291 bhp) and with a Bedfrord TM hydraulic winch assy. I loved the thing and always remember the 1/2 down, neutral,full down up gear change operation. Never depress the clutch fully on a downward change....ever. You will overheat the gearbox.
