It's HP5, which according to my outdated list is Daglish, but most likely that it is Canningvale. That is a 2.4U definitely not HSR/GPA, and would almost certainly be Canningvale.

You may be getting a bit confused. On the offside, there is only a smaller locker, and a drum with 40mm lengths rolled onto it, so looks a lot more open, but the nearside has the slightly larger lockers. The rear section is alot more open, and the tank is clearly visible, making it look alot more basic.

:shock:

At what age must the pumpers be replaced ?

For a bus in perth its 15 years no matter what the condition of the bus is, just curious to know how FESA work..wether the pumpers have a age and/or a condition limit before they must be replaced.

This isnt true.. it varies depending on the type of vehicle and also depends if you shire applies for a replacement or not..

Having said that, wrong place to be discussing this !
