Camping in an Abandoned Mud Village in Bolivia!!

- Desperate times leave me with no other option then to wild camp in an abandoned village. Although the real challenge begins when I wake the next morning to a frozen tuk tuk that won't start. Nothing's easy on three wheels but we like it that way!

I'm an English teacher in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. I show my students your videos the last 10 minutes of class, and every class they ask me if you uploaded a new video and if we can watch a bit. You're an absolute legend.
I live in Alaska so this might help, depending on if you’re here in winter and temps, you may need a battery heater, oil pan heater, and engine block heater. In milder areas of the state you can get away with just plugging in the engine block heater overnight (if it’s going to be 0F or colder), in some areas you definitely need all three if it’s going to be -25F or colder. I don’t know how much of that applies to a Tuk Tuk, but you may want to look into “winterizing” it.
It sounds like Tori is not getting enough air trough these high altitudes. There are some modification possibilities to compensate for this, some more difucult than others. The easiest would be to modify the airfilter or take it off completly (maybe not the most healthiest) to allow more air to the motor.
Love this series! Can’t wait to watch it weekly for the next 6 years now ❤
Waking up in Sweden 🇸🇪 every saturday morning to these videos. Keep it up!
Hello mate! For future reference, if you ever want to roll start your tuk tuk in case it's out of battery or something, you're gonna want to do some things differently. From your video, it seemed to me all you did was to get it moving and then just normally trying to start it up, that has no effect! To roll start a manual transmission vehicle, you'll have to get it moving, then press the clutch and engage 1st or 2nd gear (2nd is preferable). After that, when the vehicle has gained enough speed, you'll slowly release the clutch while the ignition is on (you don't have to turn the key all the way to the starter, just the ignition). That should get the engine going, if it doesn't start there might be something else wrong with it. As for cold starts, I'm no expert, since temperatures don't drop too low here in Brazil. All I've ever done is make sure the carburetor is primed, wether by manually adding fuel to the body of the carb or using the choke. It seemed to me your tuk tuk just wasn't primed, maybe because you parked it on a hill. Does it have a choke?
I'm a bit of a silent watcher but just thought i'd let you know that I'm loving the videos, can't wait to follow for journey more!
You actually need less airflow at altitude to maintain the same fuel to air ratio because there is less air at high altitude. You’d think you’d need more air because there is less air but the engines pull less air to begin with at higher altitude so to maintain the proper vacuum you need less airflow from the smaller jet.
Just a tip when roll starting, get yourself rolling to about the speed of first gear pull the clutch in and put her in first then release the clutch and give her some gas. If you are rolling faster than first gear then you need to let the clutch out in second gear. No need to use the starter when roll starting
These videos are amazing,you deserve waay more views
Cool, time for my weekly Patti update. Yes, you need to re-jet your carby that high. Another great video.
Hey dude! Cheering on in Australia, it’s brave people like you who really inspire me to travel and explore. Hope everything is going well for you and Patti, good luck on all your travels!!
Cartagena Colombia to Panama is about an 18 hour ferry ride. Hopefully a subscriber lets you camp in their house at Cartagena. It's not a very safe place to sleep outside. Wishing you both a amazing travel!
If the food is suitable for Patti, it's suitable for Ryan! She deserves the best! Safe travels!
Yes another video! ✌🏼Legends!
Suggestion as a mechanic, with the cold starting issue you’ve had there’s some tuning adjustments you can do as well possibly re jetting the carburetor for more fuel and air, you can also try putting the choke on some while running if it’s sputtering as it was and see if that helps..i also suggest you keep some starting fluid or a spray bottle with some gasoline in it to shoot some fuel or starting fluid directly into the carb to get it to start.. it won’t run better but it’ll get her goin, good luck my friend!
Great Video keep it up!!!
Dude you need a battery upgrade. Being stranded in the middle of nowhere will be no joke and cold starts will take their toll on the stock battery.
I may be wrong but the screw that you adjusted was the just the idle screw which adjusts how much high it idles. This will not change how well it runs normally. Carburettors are something to get used to.
all the best from Ukraine and Thailand amigo! Don't' forget to put more locals and their way of living!
