    Hello Gerry, Connecting the Chinese heater into the original piping has excelled my expectations: the van now has comfortable heating from one end to the other. Rae

    'Chinese' Diesel Heater

    I have been running the heater for the last few day and this is my conclusion: not overly complicated to set up, works fine, once it has reached it's temperature it slows down and is quiet, you don't hear the pump and you don't hear the exhaust or the induction; would I buy another one if this...

    'Chinese' Diesel Heater

    Pump cover arrived this morning, fitted it to the vehicle by the means of two tie wraps and I can honestly say I could not hear any ticking from the pump in the van. You could still hear some ticking from outside if you lay on the floor and crawl under the van so I would have to say this has...

    My next project BSA A65 engine in a BSA plunger frame This is a mock up to see how the A65 engine will fit in the A10 frame. If all my measurements are correct the engine should just drop in with some modification to the engine mounts: the biggest problem is getting the gearbox sprocket in...

    'Chinese' Diesel Heater

    Hello Jeff, Though I used Sikaflex I also put a bolt through from the metal gas locker to the fibreglass outer casing, tomorrow I shall be removing said bolt as I believe the sound could be resonating through it. Rae

    'Chinese' Diesel Heater

    Hello Nabs, The thing about gennies, most of the owners do not run them through the night. As for diesel heaters this is not the case; I had the misfortune one winter when we were in the Citroen van and the only heating we had was one ring .......... or two and right next to us was a van with...

    'Chinese' Diesel Heater

    Hello Nabs, Well actually I cheated a little bit. If you have a look at the pictures you will see what I did. I cut the original tee piece and slotted it inside the Chinese tee piece, held it in place with some mastic and connected it up to my original pipe work: it seems to work fine. Rae

    'Chinese' Diesel Heater

    Hello David, No I didn't, I felt sure suspending the pump would cure all these problems; unfortunately, I was wrong (nothing new there then). I have just gone on to eBay and bought an insulation pump cover so this will be my next course of action. Rae

    'Chinese' Diesel Heater

    Yes I had a feeling you were taking the p155 but I wasn't biting 🤣 I have already tried insulating the pipe where the P clips hold it to the body, perhaps I should have used more but the pipe between the two chassis rails is not touching the body. Rae

    'Chinese' Diesel Heater

    Cards on the table: really happy with the heater and the LED display I find very helpful. Coupling it into the original heating ducting was amazing, the difference is literally night and day. Down side: outside you can hear the exhaust, couldn't tell you how far away as the van is parked between...
