Going on last gear at low speed is a true abuse of engine and gear

Same as a vanhool coach , Hella units The white plastic goes hard over time and breaks etc

That was very helpful thanks Great vlog 👍

Hi, I’ve watched a fe of your videos all nice & slow very easy to make sense of , how ever this one is different - when you went to all the trouble of dismantling & exploring the problem with the gas supply to the fridge , then seeing how corroded the assembly was - at this point all parts should of been cleaned to bright metal before reassembly , the thermocouple relies on a good strong earth contact as only a tiny voltage is produced when heated that holds the gas valve open - replacing the support wire was necessary - i think that you were lucky that it stayed on with all that rust. Ed,

You can make small engine mufflers of high flow and efficiency by making the same type of spiral the length of the muffler with the edges of the spiral tight against the outer skin of the muffler...forcing the gases and noise to swirl and collide along the length of the pipe...

Adz the gas connection when lit test with soapy solution I would recommend when testing

It’s disgusting. I can’t believe how those criminals treated that persons matter to her. They should be ashamed of themselves or locked away for life

These are very helpful videos. Cleaning the burner is something that most need to do at some point. 👍 Regarding the build quality of the fridge components, I must say that they resemble very much old tin toys or something self made out of soup cans…😳

Hi ads👋 just us 2 saying hi 👋 a great video update 👍 well done 👍 we are looking forward to seeing your next update . just had to fix my driver seat runers 👍 we got keep these old campervan well maintained 👍den and sue 👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🚐🚐🚐

I see you have same fridge as mine. My fridge is getting rusty just like yours so a planned future job is to clean rust off the pipes and coat in good two pack epoxy paint. Think you should consider doing same before you end up with pin holes and fridge becomes kaput.

Nice job Adz.Very satisfying bit of DIY

I would say welding wire from a mig welder

I'm fairly sure you can get a repair kit, but it will probably go for another 20 years as is😃

Good job very useful to know👍

Very helpful thank you

Brilliant video. Will certainly bear it in mind for our old Hymer if ever I need to work on the fridge.

Weldone! Good job done! Might have paid you to use soapy water to make sure no gas leaks?

I spent a fortune on my fridge twice first idiots replaced jet with wrong one it didn't get cold enough second chap took it out and took it away to discover wrong jet fitted now works fine and and my bank account is empty

I was only saying to the Wife that we may need to get the Nessa in for a Service, as I haven't had her checked since we have owned her. Only the vehicle services have been carried out. If you tackle the Truma Boiler that will be handy too, and would save a few quid. As your Boiler is most likely the same as our with them being about 4 years apart in age, and having the same controls. As for Welding rod the one you would need ae TIG Welding Rods, the ones you showed from Halfords is the good old ARC Welding Rod, which you could use at a push once the coating has been removed, would no how long it would last compared to a Stainless Steel TIG rod. I have serviced the Hob which is the same as Hermans, as ours got very rusty. Pity the screws for the plate are are so expensive for them from Caravan shops. I have been meaning to size them for years to get the correct length and thread pitch and save a lot of money, as they tend to corrode through. I have two spare in a screwdriver case.

Is your fridge the Dometic one with the little circular window inside? It would be near the bottom left inside and about a centimetre in diameter. If so, you should be able to see the flame through it when it's alight.

please check any disturbed connections for leaks after servicing👍

On my fridge burner igniter, white part , points upwards and it should stay level, there are locations parts in base.

I always enjoy your travel vlogs and also the repair vids keeping Herman on the road. I think unfortunately you may need to start saving up for a new fridge soon as the refrigeration line looks quite corroded and fragile. Also anytime you disturb a gas union you ideally should check for leaks on reassembly with soapy water or a leak detector. Stainless tig welding wire from a welding fabricator may be another place to source the suspension wire. Happy travels 👍

Well done buddy nice little vlog ,seems to to be very popular with your followers look forward to the next one

Nice timing, I'm about to look at the burner on mine, looks very similar. Great video has given me more confidence to look at it!

Ads I had a leak on the side window that you pointed at , actually the frame had split 😢, using tiger seal once out I was able to repair but to get out I had to remove the presses above to get access to the blind to get access to the window 😂 so make sure you have an extra pair of hands to hold the presses above the window they are heavy

Thanks for the video Ads and a great tutorial, I always do my own gas service, also I bought a gas leak detector that makes me confident do do my daughters van gas

Done that service many times myself Ads, to be honest the amount of crap under and around your burner makes me surprised it worked at all lol

Excellent, I need to do this. My has fridge started playing up.

Through the window means that the mosquito’s fly in. Thats a pity

Thanks Ads, brilliant. I’ve serviced mine several times, so I wish you’d made the video a few years ago 😂

Most enjoyable well done to you

Replace the thermocouple

You shouldn’t be messing about with a gas appliance and especially need a habitation certificate afterwards.

That wire should be connected to a diffuser to stimulate the heat

LPG often burns more yellow than natural gas

I remember as a gas apprentice many years ago when working on gas fridges having to empty them, followed by tuning them upside down to resettle the liquids in the evaporator

You are very clever doing these kind of jobs. Take care Gill

Great advice Ads. My fridge always worked well on gas up until recently. Will follow your advice and see if it improves cooling

I cleaned the whole burner unit, and gently cleaned the jet. Its critical the jet hole is not increased.though i gently cleane with a needle around the jet hole.

Danke

Nice one.

You could drop this guy in the middle of the amazon, and the first thing he'd do is start looking for the bathroom light switch.

Note for non-UK viewers: this video is specifically for UK residents.

Just failed the MOT in this identical campervan because of two wheel bearings, thanks, Herman… I am going in!!

The bloopers were funnyy 🤣

Good advice I also put Bubble insulation into windows to stop sunlight fading inside. Then drop water into a buckets to wash off road grime and open all cupboards and doors.

Great video - No need to raise the camera from the lower view or to pan around to show us the actual layout. I would like to see A LOT MORE of all the locker & drawer sizes, how they all open but never mind they are all identical, and not forgetting the essential light switch locations lol lol

Ill stick to a honda generator,very quiet,had no complaints. Always enjoy your videos,thank you

Cool!
