Dumb to keep heavy, rocking, cracking, oil and air leaky stock unit. A simple cold air intake solution, filter boxed and fed by the outside air intake.

@@SquarebodyTruckCamper am using 6an fuel feed line line so that makes it aprox 3/8 ID. This is for a Jeep TJ with OM617. Will be towed by hind a large NOT square body camper (LMTV) The Metric Inlet fitting into the lift pump with the hose nipple on it, is what I need to change in order to do this. ... goal is to swap out the fitting with something that has a 6an fitting I just need to know what the size and pitch of the Bosch? inlet fitting is so I can search for matching metric fitting with a 6an on it instead of hose nipple, to swap it out with. I might be forced into removing it.. cutting off nipple and drilling a hole and tapping it for something in an NPT size I can easily get an a 6AN fitting to mount into the NPT threaded female I made. Not having a drill press and never being able to cut/drill in a straight line LOL, makes me hesitant.

@@SquarebodyTruckCamper Good heads up! I think your camper is slightly bigger than mine. We have a Fleetwood Angler meant for 8' bed, however fits in our 6.5' bed with tailgate down (to give you an idea). It has the fiberglass pink insulation. We are going to remove the tiny bathroom since the bottom tub is cracking and we never use it. I'm hoping to add a wall AC unit in that area.

@SquarebodyTruckCamper 3 ай бұрын
@@SquatchNomad a 5000 btu ac unit should work fine for you. We live in Northeast PA so the biggest issue we have is humidity during the summer. So as long as that gets cut down a bit, it is comfortable. Another tip, angle the AC unit down more than in your house in case your camper is not perfectly level when you want to run the AC. This will prevent the condensation from running into the camper.

@SquarebodyTruckCamper
@SquarebodyTruckCamper 3 ай бұрын
I never noticed the car running warm (it would run at about 90C)… but after owning the car about 1 year, I bypassed the mono valve and installed a gate valve. I open the gate valve in the winter to allow coolant to heater core and close it in the summer. Ever since I made that modification, whether the gate valve is opened or closed, the engine temp gauge runs at 95C normal operating temp and 105C pulling hills (climbing 1000 ft).
