|
|
Hello everyone,
This is little bit of things you might forget, Because they failed my test
1. Please fill your Delica with a full tank of diesel before you go to SVA test.
2. Remove those 2 clips to hold the number plate. They right below the 2 screw fitting
3. If you have curtains remove the curatins. Please cover those female part of the curtain holding button with some covers you buy in HALFORDS
4. I had my fog lamps. They told me i should disconnect them from the switch. But they did not fail me on that.
Cheers
Dush |

I would assume it is the same for petrol and I would imagine that it is to allow them to check for a leaky petrol tank... you wouldn't want to allow a car ont he road that when it gets filled with fuel is pours half a tank out on the road through a leak now would you...

Hi
The full fuel tank is so they can check the headlight high alignments, more weight in the back, lights go up etc.. well this is what they told me when I went for my test!
hope this helps

From putting a kit car thru SVA, the full tank of fuel is needed to check the vehicle design weights.
