My new Transporter.

Had a slave cylinder nicked once. Guess I was lucky as they did no damage removing it so it was easy job to put a new one on.
Still driving around in rush our to get new part was fun with no clutch.

I think repair kits were only about £20 at the time too.

The main expense on the Sprinter was because they hacked off the wiring loom to remove the Cat.

I would have been better off leaving a note under the van telling them to ring the doorbell to borrow some tools to remove it properly!

Done a bit more this afternoon fitted footwell hose and vent, drilled hole and galvanised painted under drivers seat for warm air hose.
Then hopefully tomorrow I will connect hoses to heater and fit air intake and exhaust pipe.

I’ve done a bit more to my diesel heater install, wrapped stainless exhaust with lagging and wrapped it with aluminium tape, fitted exhaust , ran the air inlet over the top of the heater, got T piece fitted for front and rear outlets, and got the wiring harness through the big grommet under the seat. Waxoiled all drillings and bolts to the chassis.

Today I managed to fire the heater up by dipping the fuel line into a gallon can of diesel, I need to connect the fuel line to my diesel tank, fit front and rear hot air blowers, refit the drivers seat and swivel, mount the programmer on the side wall and then refit the underbelly panels. I’ll put some pictures up later.

Today I’ve finished the install of diesel heater inside the van I’ve connected the hot air ducts to front and rear and I’ve wrapped the ducts in exhaust wrap to protect my Sterling B to B charger and wiring.
I’ve mounted the programmer under the drivers side passenger window fitted the seat and swivel back in the van.
Just remains for the tank connection and underbody panels to be put back.

Pat and I are pining for Benidorm as we haven’t been since 2018 we don’t want to go back to a Motorhome but are thinking of driving down and hiring an apartment.
