Solved! Silent Chinese Diesel Heater Fuel Pump!!

- After several trial and error methods, I've finally stumbled onto my solution for the fuel pump noise. It's still wrapped in "egg crate" foam in my old pistol case, but it's mounted at a 30° angle, and isolated from both the bulkhead and bunk base by just enough to matter. Wow, am I ever happy to finally get away from that dreaded tick tick tick!!
😂😂You sacrifice your sig case. I plan to do the same, but wrap the pump in plastic wrap than spray insulation foam. Nice video. Thanks
Plastic wrap and spray foam sound like a great idea! I'd certainly like to know the results of that one.
As for the case, there's a touch of "cool factor" added to my pump storage with a perfectly sized case that was for a pistol that's long gone. 😞
Thanks for watching!
Looks great 👍placement really gut 😀
Thanks 👍
Best mounting / placement I have seen ! Thank u !
Wow, thanks!
Subbed. As soon as my heater arrives, I will be doing an install vid. I really like your camper!!!
Thank you. I quite enjoy it.
I'd like to see yours when you're done!
I did the exact same thing and it's silent 👍
I did an overnight trip a few days ago. I heard it while in bed, but I had to really listen for it. This is a huge success.
Excellent! Mine is minimal for sound, but this would make it that much better. I like all the cabinets you have in there, I haven’t got that far yet! Maybe this spring
I still have little things to tend to, but it's getting there.
That is a fantastic idea! I just finished the build of my camper shell (just posted the video the other day) and I opted for going with an external, all-in-one diesel heater because of the ticking. I like what you did with your install, especially the air intake/exhaust. I think I might eventually take it apart and do a permanent interior install, mounted sideways as you mentioned.
Thanks for watching! I'll have to check out your video also.
Absolutely, I have been enjoying your content :) Keep it up!! Thanks!!!!
Nice job
Thanks. I really enjoy it.
Available now is a silicon fuel pump cover that makes the pump click almost inaudible, quieter than the blower.
Very cool! Never heard of it. Where'd you see that, on Amazon?
@@theknightcrossing yup, on Amazon, about $10.00, bon't buy the plastic ones.
Pray, please tell ..
I found a few things with mine, if I leave it off for a few days you have to refill the line from gravity drop. Moved the pump closer to the heater fixed that. Then I upgraded my pump to the $25 pump with the built in filter, well worth the money. Not having the option of moving the pump, the new pump solved the tick, tick, tick.
Nice!
I'd estimate less than 5' of hose between my pump and heater.
Maybe I'll look into that pump too.
You've also just reminded me that I forgot to add the filter...
@@theknightcrossing upgrade the pump and the filter is built in......lol
Nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Genius !! What brand and size heater did you use ?
VEVOR Diesel Air Heater 12V 3KW Parking Heater for RV Motorhome Trailer Trucks Boats Heater Digital Thermostat with 2 Silencers a.co/d/daCIMlf
Thank you! Glad you like it.
I hope the link works for you, but that's the exact one that I put in.
The sun will destroy the tank over time ....fyi
I had the old one in that location for two years. You're right; is nowhere near brittle plastic, but it's most certainly degraded and discoloured.
When the weather warms, I think I'll paint this one to block the uv.
