Fridge woes.

[Stratto]

Bleeding fridge RM8360L is acting up now it's always been a cow to start, piezo igniter, but now it won't play I normally get a wuff as it ignites, but nothing now I might get the conversion kit to a battery igniter.

Anyone done that?

It will be the burner very common should be serviced each year eventually need replaced. Fridge would light but not chill. Eventually would not ignite bit the bullet and changed the burner and igniter wire.

I must say, even if we do stay in one spot for more than a few days (which is rare), we still go out in the van most days around the local area.

However, we're talking real life use now and obviously more power will be used the more appliances that are used, mind you I don't tend to get the welding gear out when I'm on holiday!

But the goalposts have been changed, @Geek posed the question "Anyone who tells you they can run their compressor fridge from solar power through a winter is having you on. Or, more likely, having themselves on" and you clearly can, but my system keeps up with normal camper appliances as well providing they are used sensibly.

I couldn't agree more with that.... Exactly what we found...
And in truth we just move on every couple of days in winter and the B2B does the work....

IF I wanted to be in one spot for weeks I would have bought a static lol

I've been known to stay in one spot for up to two months.

Yes, they have both fed me. Merlin is a fair cook; she trained him well.

Just the best people to be fair, sadly, they're too old to adopt me

Doubt age would be the main reason

My Late Mum always told me NOT to ask questions you might not like the answers to ;-)

Well yes of course. I'm not in love with touring as much as I used to be but its always been about the bike for us. Last summer was a mixed bag. Loved the Alps and Pyrenees. Got bored with touring the rest of France which thankfully wasn't much. It was great to get back to Devon though at the end to a couple of favourite haunts and just stay there. Especially around Salcombe. If the weather is great I could stay there all summer.

Don't know where to begin

We got them some bottles of wine from France that they requested, a Gooloo Boster and some other stuff, see coz we ain't tight feckers like wot you lot am, and he still nicked me best screwdriver.

Don't forget half a kitchen roll too Kev.
The plonk was excellent though mate thanks

Got home and looked at the van from the house on Thursday, and decided your work was questionable at best.

My Mum was absolutely insistent that one could never be late - height of rudeness, or, in my case 5ft10.5ins ...

In fairness I was also told...

"I'll TELL you why.... THAT'S why"

"Someone followed a £$%^ cart and thought it was a wedding"

And my personal 'Favourite'

"A jokes a Joke BUT a chair up your backside is furniture"

Sage women my dear old mum

Grandma used to answer 'Why' responses with:
'Because y is a crooked letter and you can't straighten it ...'

Other gems included:

'Don't you see some sights when you haven't got your gun' and, on spotting a strange looking pair, 'Well, saves spoiling another couple ....'
