when you put the diesel feed lines through the base plate, have you used a grommet to ensure that vibrations through the vehicle body don't eventually cut through the lines after some period of driving? Really enjoy watching you two and your adventurous driving ... and yes .. I have subscribed.🙂 Cheers and best wishes from 'down under' .. stay safe.
Nice install mate. 👍🏼 I have one of these temporarily installed in my Paj for the winter but intend installing permanently in the summer so this is a great resource I shall be using, thanks for sharing. Whilst I'm no expert I would recommend getting a Carbon Monoxide sensor just in case and also with regard the fuel pump, the manufacturer suggest you fit it at an angle between 15° / 35°. Not sure why but thought I'd mention it.
They are just great right! Yes plan on a smoke/carbonm alarm before we next head off when it is ever allowed. Oh right thanks I can't imagine why either unless it is to do with wear or something. I got a spare anyway 😂
They are especially for the price. The way things are you may have plenty of time to get one as this lockdown seems to be never ending. I only really use mine as it saves messing about de-icing in a morning LoL. No worries mate, it said it in the half arsed instructions so I thought I'd mention it. The unit I bought was one of those pre-built units in a case and when I opened it up to check connection etc, I noticed the pump was at an angle. Great channel, new subscriber here 👍🏼
I've sussedd out some basic controller info... To change from the H 1-6 mode to degrees centigrade mode hold down top left button. To purge the pump press up and down arrows together and hold, letting go stops the purge. Holding down the top two buttoms brings up the timer icon, holding down the bottom two buttons brings up the timer adjust mode and on/off button to move through the values, but I've not played any further with this yet. For remote control pairing hold down together the on/off button and the down arrow and enter OC1and then press any key on the remote, press the top left button to exit.
I have just fitted a heater with the same controller, it is different to the usual lcd controllers and the buttons don't do the same as in the videos I've looked at. Do you have any instructions for this controller you could share please?
It's not all that bad can be insulated fairly well but there is a distinct clicking but wouldn't keep me awake I don't think and I am a light sleeper. But I will have to let you know at a later date 😄👍
Nice work! If you still have the pipes coming back from the engine bay you could add an egt cooler from a modern diesel (transit is cheap and good size for this) to the heaters exhaust and then circulate the engine coolant through it to preheat the engine. We all know how much old indirect diesels like starting when it cold!
Thats a dam good idea! Thanks for that as I've always thought how good a pre heater would be. I've removed the old pipes a long time ago but could always run some new ones 😂
Any reason you didn’t put the pump underneath? The diesel feed is underneath as is the tank so you’ve gone into the cab and back out. Also extend the air intake underneath so it’s doesn’t draw water when wading. I used to have an Ebpacher in a 110 and it’s was lovely looking at these Chinese ones for my current two landrovers
Just because I didn't think it would do to well in the elements from the electronic side. Air points down to create an air lock and also tucked up. Wouldn't be on when on the move. We've had three and do rate then pretty well 🙂
My next job. Got an old diesel Webasto that I'll repurpose 👍🏻
Will be worth it for those winter camping experiences 😁
Nice install, I like how you have utilised the space behind the seats, i have done the same with my electrics and water tanks 👍
Yes and managed to get the air compressor back there too 😁👍
Just what you need on those chilly nights. Nice install as well. 👍
You will have to be careful with the air intake underneath when you are going through water crossings as it will force water into the heater 👍
See how she goes 🙈
Very nice install. I hope its gonna be reliable. Best Regards, David
Thanks David, should be good going by past experience 😃

Thank you for sharing. Cracking detail.
Cheers 👍
Nice especially how the weather is just now 👍
Other than being banned from camping yes 😄
Great work there Jack 👍👍

This is very useful information, thank you for sharing 😀 need to do a pump prime cycle 👍
Stay warm :-) and safe. CO-Alarm is a must have. Best Regards and thank`s for share...
Thanks Alfred 😃 will do 👍 Best Regards, J&K
I liked the bit 'hope nothing blows up'! It seems quite noisy, is it too bad?
😂 that is how they are had 3 of these now not to bad might have sounded worse on the camera close up.
I have just fitted a heater with the same controller, it is different to the usual lcd controllers and the buttons don't do the same as in the videos I've looked at. Do you have any instructions for this controller you could share please?
Sorry I can't answer that as I have no idea on the operational side of the controller I've only just sussed how to turn on off up and down 😂
Looks like its gonna work a treat. Couldn't tell from the video but how noisy is the actual heater and fuel pump?
It's not all that bad can be insulated fairly well but there is a distinct clicking but wouldn't keep me awake I don't think and I am a light sleeper. But I will have to let you know at a later date 😄👍
Awesome! great content guys..
Thanks! 😀 you might not need one with the climate you guys have there 😂
Its great to instal but not from chinise, much better its the Planer Heater its help for many years, ok learning by doing..........
great luxury! ,
we put the same in our bivouac trailer, it's the best, you'll see how good it is.
friendly

Yes! Now only if we could use it for some winter camping 😅

Hi, love the channel. Just a question regarding fuel costs on your trip to Sagres from UK. Is it crazy expensive?
Would depend a lot on your vehicle and driving style. A out 1400 mile with a few off route stops
Which diesel heater is this? Where did you buy it again?
Any reason you didn’t put the pump underneath? The diesel feed is underneath as is the tank so you’ve gone into the cab and back out.

@@JKoverland guess being Japanese the standard heater works well enough when moving
