This is the only video I’ve seen that talks about the cap. Thanks for sharing!

glad I saw this video. very informative.

Awesome video bud. I currently build an econline into a fulltime studio apartment so that i can have a home while doing concrete work out of state(recently homeless due to hurricane). Have plans on running 60 amps solar(realistically 56), 60amps battery to battery charger, and 60 amp shorepower charger to a 400ah battery bank of 4 lithium iron phosphate batteries. Picked up 10awg to run panels to solar charge controller but cant figure out the rest. Thought i would need 6awg for everything but dont want to waste money.(Wallets already tight). Would you please advise me?

The ceiling panels are able to stay up with only bolts through the rivnuts? Would a lock washer make sense? Vibrations after some time did the ceiling panels loosen?

The hex ones are not designed for round holes

all websites say 6 awg does 103amps

Once plywood starts to mold can it be salvaged with a sealant? I tried putting a steel wool, vinegar, water and PVA glue on some red birch ply I have on my van walls to darken it and give it a weathered look but within a few hours it started growing mold! Maybe I should have put a fan on it as it was kinda a rainy day but I've used this same finish on some other stuff and had no problems but this red birch stuff molds real easy. I had some other plywood in a damp area under the car port that got moldy too and I tried bleach, vinegar and sanding and nothing seemed to totally get rid of it. Can you paint or apply oil or polyurethane over it? Or is it toast?

Can you do my Promaster 1500? I am in Orange County

Smart dude thanks

Great work friend. I did this same job a few years back and could never find someone doing the level tests on a promaster itself. Im gonna double check regularly now as well for peace of mind. Thank you for creating!

Thanks a bunch

You didn’t consider an adhesive like liquid nails to adhere this flooring to the plywood?

did you use 2x4s to build the wheel well box frame?

This vans are pieces of crap . wait til you have problems with the Oil cooler that is under the plastic manifold . That's not going to be fun trust me .

Great video. makes an oil change super easy and nearly mess free. All done from the top, no crawling underneath or spilling oil which is inevitable when pulling the drain plug. couple of updates for a 2022 promaster... 1. Recommended oil has changed to 0-20 2. insertion depth for the suction hose is longer... not really an issue, you can just insert and fiddle with it until the pump runs dry. 3. Stubby ratchet helps but I was able to put a standard 3/8 inch driver on the 24mm socket and get a click or two per turn. the extra length helped in breaking it loose. a flexhead (craftsman 3/8 in flexhead long handle... my favorite tool) was also helpful. Again, thanks for a great how-to video

Great video. Thank you

Poly is toxic. What othre alts do we have?

Omg!😱 This is so confusing to me… I’ll never get my electrical system working. I bought a van that has a 3000w inverter and I have two deep cell batteries and a small fuse box! I have NO idea how it works or what to do with it. And I have NO help from anyone to explain it to me. I’m trying to understand it but it’s impossible. The van also has a big orange cord that is for the AC outlet (‘s) and I had to move it to the other side of my van to get to the AC outlet, it was barely long enough to reach so I ripped out the crappy counter/kitchen counter and replacing it with a much lighter one ( it was a lot of huge scrap wood) 🪵. I ripped out all the other wires ( led) lights and replaced with battery powered “Puck” lights instead. 😅 I have no idea how I’m going to figure this stuff out. 😢😢😢

Screen repair tape is so under rated. Our apartment owner used to charge everyone for new screens or rescreening. I was like you will be doing this with every pet owner. Just make a deal that they know its a repaired screen if they have pets or kids. Just swapping them out. Recycle n resuse instead of buying new. This worked great for the lower on third of the screens. ❤

Always have a couple of threads protruding out of the end of the nutsert/rivet nut, because when you squeeze to pull up the nutsert/riv nut you have less chance of stripping the thread. I'm a sheet metalworker been using nutserts for 35 years and have learnt by my mistakes as nothing worse than either drilling out a nutsert or stripping the mandrel and getting it stuck in the nutsert.

Any advice/tips you can share about how you found the area to drill for the shower drain because there's a lot going on underneath the Promaster over there by the driver's seat side. A really great video, thank you so much! 🙏🏼

why did they not put a tranny drip stick in the unit.

Paul - I just completed installing the same Renogy B2B Charger as you did. I'm undecided as to whether or not to install the wire to limit the charging. Why would I not want to charge at the full 40 amps? Is it harder on the battery or the charger itself? Cause excess wear and tear on components? Just curious as to the reasoning. By the way, we currently do not have solar power but probably will in the future. But thank you for the video, it was very helpful!

Thanks for sharing. I am a new subscriber. I bought the same items after watching your video. How come you used a battery operated pump instead of this hand pump for your oil change? Thanks in advance for your reply.

Brilliant. Simplest and best way to do those corners, works like a charm!

My guess is you are going to use it on your 12v refrigerator 😅

Question- is it possible to install a separate on/off switch and not need the remote to turn it on? Or can I use my on/off switch, then use the remote just for color/dimming? I

great tip with the measurements. However, you probably need to mention this wont work as well on a slanted driveway if the vehicle is propped up on ramps or jackstands (to level for working), which is how I am able to do work on my sprinter in my rediculous slanted driveway. But again, I will be using this and ditching the ramps to measure out my water tank mounts.

Oh thank you so much for sharing your vids... I was looking at the river nut option for my transit cargo installations but was kinda clueless about using 'tools' yeah IKR well thank you Sir for sharing your wisdom😊

Brilliant video. Thanks a million.

Do you ever wish the glass was clear? I’ve seen a bunch of these for sale for reasonable prices but they’re all tinted like yours and I felt like that might detract from seeing the sky and stars as they are

TY for the video. I was aware of the garage door size of these screens and the 3ft plus size but had forgotten the ones for patio doors existed. Great solution. About the hook in the B-pillar of the sliding door, could you just put a magnet on the other side of the seal to hold the screening away from that opening? Or sew a tab right there to hold that part of the screen inside away from the sliding door when closing. Or adhere a piece of stiff black plastic to the screen at that point to keep it stiff and from falling open into the "hook area."

Just drill a hole in the top side of the switch for your cable to go through. The label will still be correct and a lot less work to do.

Hello FF, sorry to bug you again. Well was all set up to do the deed, and I can’t get the filter cap off. I have all the right tools -but it won’t budge! I am afraid I am going to break something if I try any harder. Any ideas?

Great to see such DIY solutions! Allthough clean copper being a great conductor only (challenged by silver) in humid ( condensarion) environments risk of oxidation is there. Did you consider nickel plating copper parts with DIY nickel/vinaigre solution and low voltage electrolysis?

Is this material best just for the flatter ply panels or can you do the curved metal panels of the van too? .thsnks

I wonder if over time your pvc will be softened and your bracket will loose tension?

We have a recirculating shower system in our bus with a propane outdoor water heater that we are having difficulty with. I have consulted a plumber be we are still having trouble, could you possibly advise us on it?

What thickness of polyiso did you use to insulate the headliner?

I have all the ingredients, a bit timid to make a go at it… Do you recommend removing old filter, leave the cap off, suck old oil out, insert new filter and cap, THEN add the new oil? Your vid shows replacing old with new before extracting old oil… and then loosing the cap again.

THANK YOU FOR THIS. I plan to do this to mine.

That's a crazy story to hear. Very sad that they shut down that electronics course, even more shameful that they can't allow you to provide kids with one of the most knowledgeable coding programs used around the states. Even through college, I had to use those at a few points in my early coding classes. I feel that a lot of students who have taken your class will know of the opportunity you gave us and the value it provided. Will always remember how amazing and resourceful you have been! And will do my best to keep up with your videos!

Maybe I'm crazy, but shouldn't the top mark on the dipstick you made be for the fluid when hot? You say the opposite, that it's the cold mark.

I'm really glad i took a lot of AP classes, but at the same time I wish I considered which credits would actually be useful. I have credits that don't cover any requirements so they didn't really benefit me, and I could've taken a different class that would have.

As an academic you may not understand this. This is evident in your videos. Let me try try to explain.....When you started your teaching career you where on the up side of educating humanity to higher and higher levels for the betterment of humanity and establishing and maintain a free and prosperous society.....Now in your later years you are on the down side of educating humanity. The theme these days is to dumb down education to fit the newbies into the new emerging totalitarian society. It's Feudalism education. Too much information will allow them to see they are being screwed, so dumb them down... The new societies education systems starts from the earliest stages and progresses to university levels where they are finished off as slaves for the new system...Capture them before their 5 and you will have them for life....

Instead of helping students build the skills to be successful, they just redefined success

How long did your US solid vales last? I have a had two and they both failed in the first year

Superbly done

thanks for your help
