    Is Anyone Using RV Repair Club ?

    Not unfortunately at all Dave just one of my foibles that the correct word is used in the "English" language, I can not stand any Americanised english it grates on my understanding, and after all is said and done, some of the most astounding science about space has been by true British...

    Without sounding pedantic Dave you weren't "electrocuted", or you would not be around to say you had an electric shock, just saying 😜 Phil

    Gas underslung after 6 years.

    I had retired and sold the garage when I built this one, I managed on the ground by running the front wheels up on ramps and jacking up the rear onto axle stands, it was tight and uncomfortable at times but was fairly easy, I also fitted the waste and fresh water tanks at the same time. Phil.

    Gas underslung after 6 years.

    Just found this on their site Robert, https://tinleytech.co.uk/product-category/motorhome-and-caravan/vehicle-specific-vapour-tank-kits/ Sorry mate that's the wrong company I posted that in error I remember that I had to contact them to order a stainless steel mounting kit.

    I seem to remember that the fitting kits and picture gallery of tank fitting was hidden in an area on their website that wasn't at all obvious, it took me a couple of tries to find it. Phil

    Holiday De Jardine

    Your welcome Phil when this bloody pandemic is over, have to say though that it's one of the most peaceful Easters I've ever known, no planes roaring through the sky and very little traffic noise to disturb the tranquility, can even hear the birds singing for a change, 🙂 Phil.

    Gas underslung after 6 years.

    Robert, at the time I bought the kit from Autogas 2000 along with stainless steel mounting kit, this was for a 2014-15 xlwb Ducato, thought I believe the kit is the same for mid and swb but is slightly different for 2015 on. I still have the instructions in my shed I think so if you want them...

    Gas underslung after 6 years.

    I did it myself Raw, I'm lucky enough I suppose to have done all my own work in and around my home and commercial garage for the last 40 odd years unless of course it was a legal requirement because of my employees, I think it was only recently that I had builders in to replace the wooden floor...

    Brakes on Ducato XLWB after 6 years

    Thanks Phil that's a great site, however over the years I've learnt that brake pads can be very fickle and if there are 5 different pads to fit the same vehicle and year or on year change, then I will end up with the wrong pads. At least if I get them from my motorfactors they will change them...

    Brakes on Ducato XLWB after 6 years

    In continuation of a 6 years period as in my gas thread, I decided that maybe it was time to check the brakes after 34 thousand and 6 years of travel. The back brakes were very little worn and other than brushing the brake dust out of the park brake drum and removing and cleaning up the rear...

    Seeing as we can not use our van for it's intended purpose other than using the awning feature in the garden 😎👌. I thought that I would give it a going over, Brakes, water system and gas system. Well I've heard it mentioned on more than one site that you should always use sheathed gas pipe, and...

    I'm guessing that you are aware that 1ltr = 1kg that's an awesome amount of weight to be carrying around plus the weight of the tank ? 🤔. Phil

    John Guest ?

    I've got to say that my wife and I have travelled all over Europe for the past 25 years and we have never worried about running out of water, water is available in a multitude of places around the continent ( Not so much in the UK I admit) but non the less water in the UK is available if you...

    Have you placed your van on SORN in mid March, then check with your bank

    As I stated Dave if you don't cancel it personally you would be totally at their competence. Phil

    Have you placed your van on SORN in mid March, then check with your bank

    Going on the internet google Phil it would seem that you are responsible for cancelling a direct debit, a company that you were paying a direct debit to can cease to draw the debit if you tell them you wish to cancel the payment, however to be certain you must cancel it yourself otherwise you...

    Have to admit I'd never heard of barrier pipe and assumed you were talking copper pipe, had to go on google and look it up😄, Phil

    John Guest ?

    Hi, Well I do have to say that in my view rigid plumbing always transmits noise far more easily than semi rigid or completely flexible pipe work, plus the fact that if you have done any home improvements on gas or water plumbing recently you will have noticed the horrendous price of copper pipe...
