I tried the owner operator. I got 3 lemons . I gave up. A maxforce, a c15 thst had a cracked head and a mack that had a fuel problem. I eventually found out the issue. I decided to give it back. I am a company guy w a oo attitude

[@ShowSheezy26]

That intro was totally unexpected😂😂 you’re awesome dude!!! 👍🏽👍🏽

[@erickmedina5305]

I was freezing 🥶 in Boston my bunker heather wasn't working. I follow your video and I fixed it right away. Thanks my man

[@jeetsarai]

Very well explained short and simple that’s the way I like it thank you

[@coolasbeans]

Thank you for not being long winded. Great instructions!

[@allenfields9660]

Very well explained and informative thank you

[@quintincoop06]

Thanks for the video. Just did mine tonight. Took two hours for the inside but I got it done!!!

[@bigmike9060]

You can also put a regular fuel filter in line of the pump if you do make sure it is fairly level. Helps with the initial fuel fill up of that inline filter. That helps with that fuel screen not plugging up from water born contaminates.

[@danstreight2529]

I tried sourcing an inline style fuel filter for the tiny 1.5mm ID fuel line...and could never find one. Got a link?

[@hicham5745]

Is that 12v or 24v Thank you for this video

[@edjahman]

I really appreciate your channel. I was a company driver for years but now I'm an OO. Thank you for all that you do. Your accent reminds me of Wisconsin or Minnesota! I love it. Take care

[@DIYSEMI]

I appreciate that!

[@diesel7992]

Nice vid easy to follow and to the point 👍🏼

[@jayis21]

How much should u pay to get this service done? Where ru located may b I can have do this service on mine

[@LauraBruno33]

Excellent demonstration. Good job!

[@omarh4694]

Webasto is different, had to disassemble the whole thing to clean out the burn chamber & glow plug, espar is superior design

[@hamphooten]

Awesome video well done

[@alexplus3]

I'm always learning something new from you....🚛👍🏻🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@BP-wg3rp]

You should add air intake inspection to your pm ritual. Dust and pet air an accumulate and prevent adequate air intake. Thanks for posting.

[@773alonzo]

Thank you for this tutorial. From thermo king the heater element its self is 169.×× Cross referenced from there and went to Amazon, including the tool, and the gaskets and filter. 29.xx.

[@raytwal1]

Can you please provide me with the link

[@773alonzo]

@@raytwal1 you mean to tell me....you're too lazy to find it????? No, im not holding your hand...we did half the work (tutorial video) and me mentioning where to get it....get your fat lazy @$$ off the bed and figure it out. Smfh

[@markm0000]

I heard with these heaters it’s best to run it on full blast for 15 minutes before turning it off to burn off any soot. Also it’s good to turn it on only for extended periods of time. If you’re turning it on for just a few minutes at a time it can damage from extra heat cycles.

[@DIYSEMI]

yep, thats called short cycling...causes build up in the unit

[@markm0000]

@@DIYSEMI I heard that on a trucker forum a while back. I just ordered one for my current truck and it should be here to install next weekend. It’s been getting harder to sleep in the cold without one. As for the heat, I don’t think I’m going to buy a APU in the summer. I have an idea to put a oversized alternator on my Reefer unit and run a small window AC out the back of the sleeper. That can also charge my batteries so I can run a inverter while parked. I never set my unit on cycle while I sleep so it’s a perfect combo. Saves weight and one less thing to worry about. Let me know if it’s a bad idea. Thanks for the videos

[@GoSpankYourMom4Me8514]

@DIYSEMI can you please tell me where you find the fuel screens for the fuel pump? I'm striking out locating them. I just got 8pc set for my D2 espar on ebay for only 18 usd but doesn't come with the fuel screen replacement need your help fella. Thanks

[@jowaragosogo4828]

You didn't tell us where to buy the parts. Where did you buy the fuel screens?

[@srtjeep9125]

I wonder if thats why my espar smokes when i first turn it on… lol 😆 thanks

[@adonismoya]

Hey brother I have a espar d2 heater bunk won't start , I connect the red and yellow cables from ecm if does nor start means that ecm is bad?

[@rahmanrucker4408]

At first my bunk heater was working on and off I did everything you showed in this video and now it does nothing at all what could be the issue

[@badguy2419]

Where about one would find those screens? Great demonstration by the way

[@DIYSEMI]

Thanks..find them online, or any thermoking or carrier dealer. Same placee they work on reefer units or apu's

Thanks great video

[@sages101]

Hey man, you ever have an issue with your bunk heater blowing warm air, but not hot? I went outside, tapped on the fuel pump, it's ticking and seems to be working. It's almost like the fuel isn't being fully ignited. Little bit of blue smoke out the exhaust. any thoughts? I'm running a space heater in the meantime :/ I ordered another fuel pump just in case, and I guess it's good to have a spare on hand anyway. It's an Espar D2L. Had the heater shut off on it's own a whole bunch of times too. It's like the fan kicks into over drive and than turns off. could it be the glow plug?

[@DIYSEMI]

It is probably the vent hole is plugged limiting air flow

[@sages101]

@@DIYSEMI hey I figured it out. it was actually a piece of crud that was stuck in the fuel filter, restricting the flow of diesel. No idea how that got in there, it was actually pretty big. 🤷🏻‍♂

[@armageddon8237]

I have the same problem! despite replacing the fuel filter and doing a full maintenance of taking the heater completely apart and cleaning it out and all the soot. I still have this problem of it just blowing cold air.

[@sages101]

@@armageddon8237 maybe the glow plug?

[@yoanjchirino8959]

Hey bro. Thank you so much for your videos. Quick question, is that place: thermo by products that you mention on the video about how to service your apu unit, also sells the kit for the heater? Thanks in advance for your help

[@DIYSEMI]

Yes, they carry most of the parts for the heater. Check the other comments in this video, someone posted some links to the items. Thanks for watching.

[@jakekaras149]

Keep up the great work!

[@DIYSEMI]

Thanks...was hoping to give u a gift card last night...we will do it again at 1,000 subs

[@jakekaras149]

@@DIYSEMI yea with these rates I need all the help I can get! You should be up to 1000 subs in no time.

Question for you...i have been holding off on talking about financial stuff...for fear it might be in poor taste right now considering the situation....what do you think?

[@jakekaras149]

@@DIYSEMI I think right now is a good time to talk about finance. I meet soo many truck drivers in there 70s still driving because they cant afford to retire, it's really important to invest as soon as possible to be financial stable later in life.

[@DIYSEMI]

Thanks, i think i will.

[@leroymontel75]

How many hours he will stay running for?, because my doesn't stay running for more than 4 hours

[@DIYSEMI]

Should stay running longer than that. Is your battery voltage dropping too low? That will definately cause it to shut off.

[@terrybrown2441]

Try replacing burn chamber gasket. You hv take heater out of bunk. If the gasket is crack it’s getting air through cause not to work. There videos how replace burn chamber gasket. Hope that helps

[@cascadia7244]

And if my heater is not blowing any smoke or anything out of the exhaust and it's blowing out room temp air out of the vents?

[@edbishop7310]

Where is this box Inside?

[@DIYSEMI]

Under the bunk

[@supertrucker1356]

Im trying to get my espar working. The fan isn't blowing at all and no codes seem to show on control unit. Looks to be plugged in and nothing plugged in fan. What am i missing

[@DIYSEMI]

Are you sure you have power to the unit?

[@supertrucker1356]

Not sure how to check that and nothing changed when it was working. Would it have anything to do with the fuel pump? I tried taking off the temp controller, but not really sure how that is connected or howbto remote without damaging

Did change the glow plug n screen but still white smoke comes no ignition

[@DIYSEMI]

That is almost always caused by a plugged ignitor screen. Did you clean out that little vent hole inside there while you had the screen out? That will do it too

[@terrybrown2441]

Try replace burnt chamber gasket. That well cause blue smoke also. You hv take heater out of bunk to do. Hope this helps you.

Probably an airflow issue There is a little vent hole next to the igniter If that plugs it can cause this problem
