Join us for a week of van life along the stunning Murray River! This week we are quickly reminded that full time caravan living is not all sunshine and rainbows (literally). Thankfully now that we have Myrtle and don't feel the need to rush through the weather, we'll have the chance to explore Victoria more deeply.
Video Locations:
Bruces Bend free camp, Mildura
Nyah State Forest Murray River Reserve (free camp)
Port of Echuca
The Wren Courtyard (highly recommend!)

About us:
We're Jack & Megan, and in late 2020 we sold our belongings and packed our lives into our 2005 Toyota Troop Carrier to travel Australia. Our original plan was to complete a full lap of Australia and return home to Perth to resume our 'normal' lives. We decided we wanted to document our lap for the future and began sharing weekly travel vlogs of our life on the road and fell in love vlogging, filmmaking and sharing our lives with you. We completed our first lap and couldn't imagine living any other way so we decided to continue travelling and calling the Troopy home. We have gone on some crazy adventures since then and it is all thanks to you tuning in to join us every week.

Hey Jack. Just a suggestion, but you need to cross over your chains from the vehicle to the caravan. It will help catch the van in the unlikely hood of the hitch seperating. 😊

Hey guys, thought I would throw a couple of suggestions to help you with the acceleration issues. First thing I would do is pull the fuel filter to see if there is water in the trap and if the filter is getting clean or clogged. Second thing I would invest in is a scan tool as the LC will have an OBD port. Carly is a good option as you use it through a phone app. Sometimes sensors can start to play up but not set off the engine light as they will sit as pending. I am positive it is a fuel issue and that’s why you are having issues when loading the engine up. I had a similar issue after refueling and ended up pulling the fuel filter that had 2000km on it. The filter was black and gritty, and water trap was almost full. I ended up having to drop all the fuel out of the tank because of it. You don’t want to keep running it under load if the fuel is bad as it could potentially damage the fuel pump and injectors. Anyway I hope this helps you out. Love the videos on both channels.

Great episode. Your channel is just lovely. Over the past few months I’ve watched 3 different Chanel’s now where someone has mentioned older men making some pretty ordinary comments which made those making the Chanel feel pretty uncomfortable but felt they couldn’t say anything. I’m an older woman myself and my dad would say stuff that would honestly make me cringe if he was still alive. Maybe the comments from troupy guy weren’t that bad but, I think of grandsons and wanderer if they could say “I really don’t like that or that’s not ok”. Maybe I’m overthinking it but I really felt for Megan and how it seemed to make her pretty uncomfortable. Anyway great vlog and thank you for sharing.

Ahhh, this made me homesick, although my stretch of the Murray was further east. Those storms do tend to follow along the river up there. Think I said this before but I’ve been watching since way back and it’s so great to see how comfortable u guys both are with the talking on camera now compared to when you were starting out. Also, digging the curtains and just bought a new van, were they from a big national chain by chance?

hiya loved the video. We are in Mildura as I watch this video. We are in a caravan park with a pool as its 36 degrees today but will try out Bruces bend later in the week. Until you work out an air conditioner why don’t you try our some Sirocco fans. They work on 12 volt and make a big difference when you have them near your bed. I sometimes use a wet towel or mister and then sit near the fan and feel cold.

You've probably resolved by now but from my experience. Try and not fuel up during or immediately after a fuel truck is making a delivery. I'll generally try and fuel up before the end of the day but if there is a fuel delivery about I'll come back in the morning. During a fuel delivery it stirs up the bottom of the storage tanks and end up in your tank if their filtration system is not functioning correctly. Also avoid refuelling during a heavy ran event. Poorly designed/maintained storage fillers could be positioned in low areas where the water has been known to pool and occasionally get in. It'll eventually settle in bottom of the storage tank below the pickup point. From memory your vehicle originally had a water sensor wire on the filter (for water only not particulate contamination) though may not be connected. It wasn't uncommon for the plugs to be left disconnected, or they don't function correctly. It should have indicated a blocked filter on the dash if contaminated by water. There was also a strainer that would block in the bajo fitting on the fuel pumps on some vehicles that use to catch people out. Fuel Doctor is a good preventative for peace of mind to clean up the fuel system. Some fuel tanks don't have a drain plug to remove water so an additive like the fuel doctor will mix and burn in the engine. Check out the video on the fuel doctor, there's others products also. www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=fuel+doctor+promotion+video&mid=AA5A9C6D51C1D66E3162AA5A9C6D51C1D66E3162&FORM=VIRE

The Murray River is lovely. We did it from it from Source to Mouth a couple of years ago. A wonderful trip. Make sure you visit the museums along the way to learn the history. And yes be careful where you park under those River Redgums they are very brittle. If you can keep following it the upper reaches are more beautiful the water is crystal clear above the junction of the Darling. You will learn to slow down and Enjoy! ❤ P.S. we have a tracking device in our van which gives us peace of mind when we leave our van. Black Knight is the brand. From WA and doesn’t require a Sim.

Fills up with Fuel, has problems straight away ... Bet my boots there is dirt or scale in the fuel blocking the filter or screens in the tank and injector pump if there is one in the toyotas. First buy a couple of filters then try a new fuel filter, One trick i learnt was to buy half a dozen of the cheap 2 dollar inline petrol filters and keep changing them when you see dirt in them ... they work ok in a diesel but block really easy. when she's empty buy 20 litres and blow the fuel line backwards to clear the inlet screen, drain the tank right out if you have a bung then refill with the jerry can and go fill up with clean fresh fuel... some toyotas have a water trap on the chassis rail but not sure about yours. Good luck.

OI guys FTE guy here back again with some more advice, maintain the fuel system like they should In my opinion injectors should be looked at every 100,000 km and the pump at 300,000. A lot of times it won't seem to have anything wrong but from my experience you're leaving efficiency on the table by neglecting this. (Specifically mechanical engines rather than EFI) Seems the first part of the pump to wear is the advance mechanism, so as the RPMs increase the timing doesn't increase proportionally. This puts EGT through the roof and makes it very lazy and slow compared to one with low ks. Also after 300 to 600 thousand ks, pull the intake off and clean it out, tons of soot will be in there because of the EGR.

Also when travelling in vic if there a heap of rain coming and you want to advoid it head south from murray or north from grampians, get in the wimmera mallee area with all that rain you had where i am only got 15mm for the week and sunshine for most of it lol.

Welcome back to sunny victoria Jack & Megan . I think you guys managed to find the only asthmatic goanna in australia :) . Fingers crossed the 4wd manages to fix itself and the run gets less stress free .

I’m guessing it’s water in the fuel, check your filters and add Fuel Doctor to your tanks.

Another great video you had everything packed into it. When you fill up at a servo & break down not long after pretty sure you got some doggy fuel. Always get receipts for the fuel so you have proof of purchase. I guess by now you have checked the fuel filters that's My guess.

Hey Jack, doesn't your 100 Series have a pre-fuel filter? Did you end up sorting it out in the end?
