What did you do to your van today?

[tonybvi]

Washed it after our trip to Doncaster /York, replaced the empty 13kg propane gas bottle with a full one then tucked the van away at the side of the house until we can get out in it again, hopefully in the not too distant future.

Drained down ready for the big freeze..Thursday..

 

[Buckby]

Had the interior replaced better than replacing the van

 

[trevskoda]

Plugged mains in to charge the batts as not a lot of solar last few days.

Had order a new screw top thats keeps the fuel gauge sender unit in place as it has split half way round and is leaking diesel when you try to brim the tank hopefully tomorrow.

Ordered the rest of my flue pipe today. Soon as it gets here we can fit the log burner....

Well the new screw top and seal came today and what a barsteward gto fit but I think I got there in the end this is the new and the old one as you can see it's well knackered.

I dropped the MH off for its major service at the Fiat Service Centre in Swansea yesterday. Off to pick to up today.

As we have no trips planned for a couple of weeks I'll drain down the water as well I think given that the weather is getting colder now.

 

[GreggBear]

Finally got the log burner fitted today, looking forward to trying it tomorrow...

 

[trevskoda]

Watch the yellow plastic rail it may well melt, they get hotter than you think.

 

[GreggBear]

The rail's steel with yellow paint on, picture makes it look closer than it actually is....

On tender hooks all morning wondering as we do.
Passed without any recommendation.

Taps froze, had to connect Murky to the mains and plug a fan heater in. Let’s hope no burst pipes.

 

[trevskoda]

Had a we 500w heater going the last few days, but not required tonight as the van is sitting at 7.4c according to my inside receiver.

 

[HurricaneSmith]

Put on fridge vent covers and checked that everything is AOK throughout the van. It is.

 

[Obanboy666]

Heading home today from Cumbria so decided to clean out motorhome, drop water etc etc before setting off. Saves doing it at home.

 

[snapster]

After a false start with a new Votronic 250 mppt, hoping to replace my Victron unit and also charge the cab battery. I sent it back ( it was faulty), I managed to source a new Ablemail 12-2 charger to keep the cab battery topped up.
So, today I fitted it, all working as it should. Just wondering if this is a new version, it doesn’t have the nut and bolt connections on it, but has spade connectors and 8 programme settings.

Van to MoT, all good with only two minor advisories. Oddly they werre two different advisories from last year neither of which have warranted sorting out. Anyway all's well that ......
