the purpose of the MBA bothies isnt to encourage people to go outside, rather, they are put in remote areas in the event people get lost/ stranded in bad weather and need refuge when unable to put up a tent. Hence why they are very basic inside, you'll often find on a particularly bad day there will be other walkers etc inside and sometimes you may be treated to a scottish jam session in one. I am from scotland so i've been in plenty of these :)
Love the Vlog....as a native in Scotland, I find it funny how everyone complains about the Scottish weather (4 season in a day, even in summer), but it is unique just like the people, landscape, history & food...glad you had fun in our little part of heaven.....😄
My parents visit twice a year and call me with regular weather up dates and sends me videos one minute they will tell me they are going out sea kayaking because the weather is mild then it will be a change of plan because the wind has picked up and they will be flying kites 🤣
Sometimes I forget that it’s just you two taking all these amazing shots. The production and story-telling are just always on point. But somehow, it still feels very personal and almost intimate. Thank you for always bringing us to different wonders of the world in your corner of the internet ❤️
Hey Loren! Adam and I have just read your message out loud to each other and I have to tell you that your words of appreciation really mean a lot! Having the time, energy and effort that we put into our films noticed and enjoyed, is the ultimate pleasure. So thank you!! 💛 We are grateful to have you along on our journey! 🥰 xx Tania
Hello from Canada!!!. I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking me along with you on all of your adventures. I am I my 60's and due to health issues I cannot travel. But everytime you guys are on an adventure you naturally seem to bring all of us with you. Your filming and commentaries for all the places you go are exciting and you are so natural and so friendly that you make me feel like a friend who is traveling with you. I just felt I had to reach our to you and wish you safe travels wherever you go. You guys are amazing and truly deserving of everything that has come your way. I look everyday to make sure I am not missing a new video. Please keep them coming. Love and God bless from a new fan.
Honestly guys this is just incredible. The storytelling and editing were just perfect, and the places you visited were amazing! We absolutely love Scotland, and don't get up there nearly as much as we want to!
Wow! Thank you so so much Stina for your wonderful comment and super generous gesture of $10!! I’m pretty sure you’re the first to leave us a ‘Super Thanks’ so it really is truly appreciated! Made our day! 💛 xx Tania
Embarrassingly enough just catching up on this video now and it's one of my FAVS! Parkups like the ones you found at the beginning are just the best, but omg hats and scarves in JUNE is blowing my mind, along with PUFFINS BEING REAL, EXISTING CREATURES. Somehow they seem too good for this world...the purity.... 😻
Hey you two!! 🥰 Aww so lovely to hear from you here in the comments and to know you enjoyed coming along with us to Scotland for a puffin-packed adventure! 💛 Thank you friends, for watching and supporting us! 🚐💕 xx Tania
@@JitsIntoTheSunset We need to get better at commenting, we watch them all! I've become way too passive in the comments sections of our fav channels. It's time to step up our game in that respect! Proud of you both ❤
@@ladiandmargaret Aww it’s never an issue for us! We know how crazy busy you both are will all the beautiful conversions you make, not to mention all that goes into your growing UA-cam community! 💛 Big big hugs to you, so lovely knowing you’re here! Xx
Oh my, the COLUMNS!!! 😱😱 How can something so stunning be 100% natural?! Honestly amazing. I may never be able to get there, but it's so incredible to adventure these places with you guys! ❤️
Thanks Niki! I know right, it’s beautiful… it almost looks like it was done on purpose! Yea, it’s impossible to visit everywhere, that’s why I think UA-cam can be so good, it’s a way of everyone sharing the places they’ve been with others 😌 so glad to know you enjoyed the film! 🚐 Adam
New subscriber here, coming over from the Newbys' channel. So glad to hear you talk about the importance of mental health. Many people underestimate the importance of seeking help for, and taking care of, their mental health. I have been to Scotland and Glencoe, but not Staffa or Mull. The massacre at Glencoe is such a sad story. That Yew tree is awesome! And I did know what a Bothy is/was, but I have never seen or been to one. Another thing to do when I get back to Scotland one day.
Hi Anne! Thanks for your lovely message. Yes, I totally agree about mental health being important and often overlooked! If you do go back, we would highly recommend visiting the islands if you have time. They are beautiful, it seemed to be much quieter 😊 Adam
PUFFINS!!! What a treat to be surrounded by a sea of them! And yes, I have heard of bothies. I love the idea and philosophy behind them. It takes such a kind and generous spirit to build these shelters.
Hey Gen! I know! They are so beautiful aren’t they! And super cute! 😊 You're so right about the generosity, it's a whole community of people that do upkeep on them too, it's amazing! Tania gets very emotional when she thinks about it! Hope you're all good! 😊 Adam
@@JitsIntoTheSunset Hey Adam! I see that you and T are switching it up here! Haha. Nice! I just finished having the latest omicron variant. Spoiler Alert: it's not a walk in the park like these other ones. It's a doozy! Now I must go and investigate who in the world started this awful rumour that Puffins are extinct...
Ooh, another lovely film from you two! Such stunning sights you shared with us. I did not know what a bothy was until you showed us. Also, the footage you captured is so simplistic and beautiful. The clip of the rainbow with the sheep... beautiful!
Thank you so much! Bothys are so cool aren’t they!! 😊 really glad you enjoyed the film! I actually went for a walk without my camera and then saw that rainbow! So I ran back to Jits as fast as I could to grab it. When I came back it was almost like the sheep were posing for me in front of the rainbow!! 🐑 🌈 😂 Adam
I have just met you on the Newbies and followed you right here. My husband's last name is Preble and there are a lot of them in Scotland as well as in the US, where we are. I think that there is even a Preble, Scotland, or a river.. I listened with sadness about your mom and your loss of her to cancer. Presently I mentor lung cancer patients for Mayo Clinic Connect, an online tributary of Mayo Clinic where patients support and help other patients online. I am a 24+ yr. lung cancer survivor and know well how draining and awful cancer is for family members. This entire video has an ethereal intimacy to me. You get as close as possible as the Puffins allow and the space between is the sky and sounds of the earth and sea. Quite incredible that you caught this. And with squeals of such innocent discoveries, it simply is amazing. Thank you.
Hello Merry! Thank you so much for your beautiful message! I’m sorry I’m only just responding now! Wow, your mentoring work sounds incredible! Well done, such important work. Very inspiring to hear you’ve survived cancer and you’re now out in the world helping others. Very heart warming! Thanks again for your wonderful message, we’re really pleased to hear that you enjoyed our film! Sending you lots of love, Adam 🚐
Another stellar video!!! 😍I will get a shirt when they are for sale.😁 thank you for reaching out about your first video.It's been a wonderful journey to see the world with you both.
Really enjoying your podcasts, my husband and I are working through them all so thought it was time to check out your videos. We ❤️ Scotland, and islands like Mull (although avoid Mull during any school holidays!) I can't wait to work my way through your videos and the rest of the podcasts. Best of luck with Jits on your European travels.
Hi! We've been watching for a while but I don't think we've commented. Loved seeing Scotland - it's one of our favorite places. There are shelters along the Appalachian Train in the US. Some are free - and some have a small fee.
Hey Justine! It’s nice to meet you on here 💕 We always find it’s extra special to hear from those who have taken the time to follow along our journey for some time but have not yet commented. 🙈 Very glad to hear you enjoyed travelling to Scotland with us! It really is a special country. 🚐🏴💕 Also great to hear about the shelters on the Appalachian trail… now we know if we ever get the chance of a lifetime to do it! 😮 xx Tania
What a beautiful trip, the scenery and the way it was filmed, was stunning! That cave was mind blowingly gorgeous, being there in person must have been incredible! I loved the footage of the puffins and the fuzzy little caterpillar climbing the mountain, so cute! 😍 We have tramping huts in Aotearoa (New Zealand), but not free and a lot of them look very similar to the Bothy. Great film as always guys! ❤️
Hi Nyree! Thank you so much for your incredibly thoughtful message! I love that you noticed and appreciate the little details, like the fuzzy caterpillar (which we named Steve 🐛). And thank you for sharing about the guys in New Zealand - NZ is a country that we absolutely cannot wait to discover! 💛 xx Tania
Hi guys! Thank you for the beautiful video! Adam, I am so sorry about your mother. And I agree absolutely that being open about experiencing the grief really helps to move forward and get over it in time. I lost my mum to cancer when I was 17 and for over 15 years thereafter I was denying my sorrow and grief which actually made me suffer even more until I found a good therapist who helped me to face the loss and eventually accept it. I wish you lots of strength and kindness.
Hi Pyatnova, thank you so much for your lovely message. I'm so sorry to hear about your mum. That must have been so hard. I think especially hard at such a young age. I'm glad you managed to find a good therapist, and that it worked for you! Sending you lots of love, Adam
Omg I was in absolute awe watching this vlog, fingals cave has now gone on my must visit in the next 12 months list! You are both a fountain of knowledge, thanks again for another amazing piece of cinematography 🐌🐧
That's so kind of you to say, thanks very much!! 😊 We love it when we know people enjoy our films! Keeps us motivated to keep putting in the work! 😊 And yes, Fingals Cave is amazing! We hope you make it there one day, you won’t regret it. The whole of Mull is beautiful! 🚐 Adam
Lovely to see you visiting Scotland. Your mum would be so proud of your travels in Jits. Such memories. I look forward to your merch! I need to check out your podcast too. Take care Tania and Adam.
Hi Linda! Thank you! I think she would be very happy to know that Jits is giving us so many amazing memories! Yay, we hope you enjoy the podcast!! 😌 🚐 Adam
Hi Adam and Tanya. I have a 2005 Citroen C3 which we've had from new. Originally it was my wife's but has since been passed down for my daughter's to learn to drive in and is still used today as a first car by the youngest. About 5 years ago it too had a issue when declutching, it would occasionally stall but not always. Idelling whilst stationary was fine. I'm no mechanic and took it too the local garage who checked and replaced many parts including the coil, ERG unit etc. Each time I'd drive away hoping it was fixed but it kept stalling until the one day the ECU was reprogrammed. Never stalled since. So the ECU is worth considering as the symptoms are similar and it's also a Citroen Peugeot engine! I do hope you resolve JITs problems soon as it would be a shame for her to go. Best regards Paul
Hi Paul, thanks so much for this, super useful to know! I'm glad you managed to fix your Citroen. We will definitely add this to the list of things to be checked! It's really frustrating taking a vehicle back to the mechanics so many times for the same issue isn't it! We're definitely going to do everything we can to get her fixed, we want to do one last big trip with Jits! 🚐 Thanks very much for taking the time to send us this, we really appreciate it! Adam
Hey you two!! Aww what a pleasure it was too meet you both! 🤩 Thank you for the recommendation… we loved the Yew tree. A true hidden treasure! 💛 Big hugs! Xx Tania
How good to see you back home! Great views great editing as always. The two of you are so cute, as cute as the puffins. Thanks for sharing. Lots of love
8:57 I lost my mum a month ago, I’m converting my van and want to take myself away to nature too! Empathy towards you loosing a mum is insane. There are no words that can comfort you. It is honestly a journey
Thanks so much for your lovely message! I’m so sorry to hear about your mum! I once heard something about grief that really seems to be true… grief is like a heavy backpack, it doesn’t get any lighter, you just get better at carrying it. I think that’s a really good analogy because over time I don’t miss mum any less, I just get better and making my thoughts about her positive ones. I hope this makes sense to you? Sending you lots of love! Adam
Yes that engine problem needs to be fixed. I wonder if it might be as simple as a corroded electrical connection that half fails during idle (aka greater vibration during idle) causing the drama. Perhaps a good clean of all the the electrical connections with wd40 might do the trick. Your presentation on mental health was real impressive. Thank you for your great content. Love you both.
Have you tried your fuel cut off valve? Sometimes susceptible to an intermittent electrical fault. We also had an intermittent fault caused by crud getting pulled into the diesel filter. Would run fine, would idle fine, and then all of a sudden would stall when pulling up to a junction. Was then a real challenge to get started again. Super simple and quick thing to change to eliminate that from further investigation!
Hi guys, as always, a brilliant piece of filming especially since it’s in Scotland ! 😉 I don’t listen to podcasts unfortunately, I barely find the time recently to watch some of the UA-cam videos that I follow, so it’s so nice to catch up with your latest episode. Take care and hopefully you can sort Jits out as we can all see how much she means to you both and more so Adam. Safe travels ! 👍🏻😉👋🏻
Hi Alan, thank you so much! Scotland makes filming easy 😂 it’s so beautiful! Shame to hear you don’t listen to podcasts, we know what it’s like, we only find time to listen to some because we do so much driving! Jits mysteriously seems to be running perfectly at the moment. But as soon as we get comfortable she will take us by surprise! 😂 🚐 🔧 Adam
Great as always. I wanted to offer a thought on performance issue with Jits. I had an old Toyota years ago. It was quite reliable, except when it wasn't. Out of the blue, it would stall. Took some trial and error, but it was the fuel filter. Old gas tank, lots of sediment, means replacement more often. Happy trails! From Halifax NS.
Oh my goodness. I follow on Instagram and knew you had done the Pap etc but I finally had time to watch this afternoon and as you went to Mull my heart was with you. My husband (who died in 2019) and I loved it there and on Iona. My heart raced and tightened and the tears flowed (something that is happening less) then your sponsor ‘bit’ came on. Made me wonder if I need help. Thank you for sharing my beautiful adopted home
Hi Helen! Thank you so much for your thoughtful message! We are so sorry to hear about your husband! I would say that speaking to someone who can support you, is always a good idea. It's nice to talk, I love talking about my mum. I would say give therapy a go and if it's not for you then you can always stop. You have nothing to lose and so much to gain from getting support. Sending you lots of love, Adam 😊
Another top video and really enjoying your podcasts too guys, it’s a very nice chilled listen after work as I’m unwinding dreaming of weekends away and holidays 👍🏻😂
Lovely video guys, Mull & Iona are beautiful islands. If you do ever go up to Scotland again I'd recommend the Outer Hebrides, some stunning scenery and if you're really lucky you might see dolphins between the ferry crossings
Thank so much! Delighted to hear you enjoyed watching. 🥰 Oh absolutely! We have plans to return to Scotland and spending time really getting to know the Outer Hebrides - we’ve only ever heard great things! 🏴🌟 Also… will go anywhere for dolphins! 🐬🤪 xx Tania
Thanks so much, Alan! Appreciate you taking the time to watch 😊 and delighted you enjoyed the puffins too! They really are fascinating creatures! 🐧💕 Glad to have you along for the ride! 🚐 xx Tania
Hi!! I found out about you both through Nicki and Carlo. I was so excited that you both visited Scotland!! Yay!! I have visited Scotland several times and adore being there. My Great grand father was born in Scotland. Can't wait to see where you will go next! Bon Voyage! 💕
Hi guys we really enjoyed this video, Scotland 🏴 is truly breathtaking. The puffins were amazing looks like you had a really great day. We feel your pain, we have a 32 year old motorhome and she is always breaking down!! On our way home from the Cairngorms in March her engine blew up and we have been without her ever since 🥲 we are hoping to have her back this week 🤞
Omg!! I’m so sorry to hear that, that’s horrible! Must have been very scary! I really hope she gets fixed up soon! 🤞🏼 And yes, Scotland is breathtaking, we had such a great time! Thanks for the message and good luck with your van 🚐 Adam
@@JitsIntoTheSunset yes it was scary but you know what it’s like with an old van there is always something 😅 hoping to have her back soon. take care Sarah
Have been sooooooo looking forward to this film! What an absolutely fantastic episode of your travels. So pleased you enjoyed Mull, it's one of our favourite places, it's perfect rain/hail/or shine! Glad to see you took a Staff Tours experience to both isles, and aren't puffins just the most?! Having just listened to the first ep of the podcast, it's a great listen, anyone who's reading this and hasn't listened yet, go do! It's unmissable, and Tania and Adam are being far too modest! You have to love Jits' passion for collecting different international experiences, she's just a sociable old gal who loves to get to know others 🤣😂 Looking forward to the next poddy and UA-cam film! Stay safe and open roads!! xx
Hands down on of the sweetest, most thoughtful messages we’ve received!! Thank you, thank you for taking the time to watch and leave us such kind and encouraging words… not to mention your DM on Instagram. 🥹💕 We really appreciate you being here, THANK YOU!! Xx Tania
@@JitsIntoTheSunset Tania, you reap what you sow, lovely, and you are a true gem (so is Adam for that matter!!!). Have a fab week, and see you on the 'gram xx
Loved every minute of this Scottish adventure, having toured the highlands and isles myself via camper/bike it’s truly an amazing country that never fails to disappoint, keep up the great content guy’s👌🚐
Cheers Will! We couldn't agree more! Such an amazing country! 😊 I love that it's just up the road too! You don't have to fly all he way to NZ or Canada! 😊 🚐 Adam
Welcome back ! Lovely to see your Scotland trip! Beautifully shot and edited as ever. Look forward to your next adventure and congratulations on the podcast again you pair ! X
Hi guys Try replacing your air filter or even remove it to see how it runs as with all the midges in Scotland it’s probably blocked your air filter slightly 👍🏻 Let me no if that helps
I've been staying in bothies for over 40 years and that was a 5-star bothy! Some of them just have a dirt floor and no furniture etc. Some kind of sleeping pad is definitely a good idea! Similar things exist in England and Ireland and there are shepherd's huts in the Pyrenees and other mountain ranges. There are of course mountain huts in the alps but they are more like hostels than bothies. Finally, there are the open shelters on trails like the US Appalachian Trail. But I think Scotland has the biggest number and variety of places - everything from uninhabited islands to mountain tops. But they are slowly dying out, there are only about half as many now as there were in the 70s.
In Alaska in the U.S., they do sometimes have cabins for people if they get lost or have to make emergency bush plane landings. I’m not sure if it’s exactly the same thing as those Bothys. Jits would have so much fun doing a road trip through Alaska! Maybe someday.
Oh wow, that’s very interesting indeed, thank you for sharing!🤓 Oh yes…. Alaska in Jits would be an absolute DREAM! 🚐✨ Unfortunately, not sure she would ever make it with her ongoing mechanical issues 😩 xx Tania
Don’t know if you still have JITS but the breakdowns are most likely to be electrical problems. The good news is that the solutions are quite inexpensive. If I were you I would find a mechanic and ask him to replace the coil packs ( The boxer probably has two,) replace spark plugs, pints if the ign8ti9n is not electronic, all the leads. If it has a distributor you should change the capacitor.
Another absolutely stunning video lads, like beyond stunning actually! The quality of your shots is second to none. Absolutely class. Fair play and good luck with the inevitable growth of your channel ❤️
Hi Mick, thanks so much for your extraordinarily kind words! We put a lot of work into our films and to know it’s appreciated really does mean a lot. We often question weather we should be posting more often and not focusing so much on spending all this time on fewer films, but when we get messages like this it’s a reminder to keep doing what we’re doing!! So thank you! Adam
Hey Patricia!! Aww thanks so much! Makes me so happy to hear that you appreciate our film and could bring you some great Scotland memories! It really is an amazing country! 🏴💕 Appreciate you watching and following along our journey. 🥰 xx Tania
Aww, I loved this video. Thank you for showcasing this gorgeous country in the most beautiful way 💙 My partner and I are getting married in Fortingall next year 🥳 and we feel incredibly lucky that we get to call Scotland home.
Hi Morven, that sounds absolutely lovely! Scotland is a wonderful place to call home!! Thanks so much for watching!! Really glad to hear you enjoyed it 😊 🏴 🚐 Adam
I can't believe no one is asking about that adorable Jits sweatshirt!! Please share details. I tried to search your accounts, but couldn't find any merch for sale. Love you guys so much. Tania's storytelling is so calming and engaging. Thanks for sharing your travels with us!
Thanks so much, Declan! 💛 You’re absolutely right, Scotland is beautiful all seasons! 🏴💕 Appreciate you being here and for sticking around since our Austria adventures! 🚐 ✨ xx Tania
I dont know if you still have that van but; Your fuel filler cap might be blocked. IE if there is no breather hole or it is blocked. It causes a vacuum in the fuel tank which stops fuel getting to the engine. That is what it sounds like.
Hi Hannah! Yay! We're so happy to be back on the road too! Hoping that Jits is just as excited as us 😬 🔧 Aww yay, glad to hear you like the merch! We're super happy with it! 😊 👕 Adam
There are sensors called the knock sensor underneath the intake. They control the amount of air that comes into the engine. They can start going bad without throwing codes and will be most noticable at slower speeds and higher idle. Once they go completely out the engine will make a knocking noise hence the name. If there's no codes or mechanics are scratching their heads it's worth a try.
Hi Chris! Haha, The puffins were so good!! We really loved it 😊 it was the fact that we could get so close to them, we didn’t realise they were so chilled! 😌 Adam
Similar to Bothys there are refuges in France, some are paying as you get food and heating but some are completely free and they range from ones including a stove to litterally just four walls and a roof
'The worst day in Scotland is better than the best day anywhere else'. - Me 🤗 I was there during an August for the Fringe, the Tattoo and few days in the HIghlands. I would literally take pictures walking into a spot in Glencoe, and then take another set on the way out because the weather had changed and it was a completely different set of photos! 🤣🤣 Best trip of my life. 💙🩵💙
About the engine problem, I'm no professional mechanic but I had similar problems with my truck and I swapped out the oxygen sensors and the mass air flow sensor and it did it for me.
Aww thank you so much, Sinéad!! We really do feel so lucky to be back on the road in Jits, surrounded by nature! I’m glad that our emotions shine through!! 💛 Appreciate you being here for the journey! ✨ xx Tania
Amazing new Travel Film from Scotland. We absolutely love travelling through your eyes and how cute are the puffins. Incredible! We've been to Scotland just a few weeks ago and unfortunately didn't manage to get a whisky distillery tour, so we are really happy to get to see it. Enjoy your time in warm sunny Portugal - oh and we love your Merch design and new Podcast. Greetings from Germany ✌
Hey Guys!! Scotland is excellent! Glad you got to experience it in your van too! 😊 Portugal has been lovely. Heading back to Jits next week and hoping to get her back on the road after taking her for a once over with the mechanic 🔧 🤞 Yaaay, so glad you've checked out the Podcast!! Hoping to get the merch out soon too! 😊 👕 🚐 Adam
Hi about your van check your throttle body and see if its dirty the butter fly opening and clean with carb cleaner also check your breather hoses for blockages.good luck
Hugs Adam! I lost Dad a good few years ago now and I know how tough it is. Time doesn't heal as such but it does teach you to have a good tool kit to help with missing someone. All in your own time and your own way. From one Devonian to another have fun both of you and always a pleasure to watch these ❤️
Hey mate, thanks for your message. Sorry to hear about your dad. Yeah, it doesn't get better, you just get better at dealing with it... if that makes sense? 😂 Sending love! Adam
Loved this. Great story telling and love all the facts. That hike looked a mission but wow the views. Hope you can get jits fixed, she means so much to you both. Take care x 🦜
Hi, I’ve just discovered you via The Newbys. I’ve only watched two but I’m really impressed by your amazing videography and editing. Looking forward to catching up backwards 😂
sounds like your van has a vacuum leak. When your slowing down the brakes take more vacuum from the engine. So you should have all vacuum hoses and intake gaskets inspected . you can spray all these areas with WD-40 while the van is running and if the idle increases thats where the leak is.
Well done guy’s as you really do top quality vlogs. Great shooting & editing by Adam and Tania is a brilliant commentator with a captivating voice and accent. Keep up the good work 👏👍👍👏
Hello! So good to see your new video: sublime!! I am going to subscribe to your podcast. :) Your videos are always beautiful; the story telling, the shots, your opinions/thoughts. Xo
Aww thank you so so much!! This is so kind of you to say! Lights us up to read your appreciation for our work, so a million times, thank you! 💛 Hope you are having a wonderful weekend so far! Xx Tania
My mini used to do that, We took it to a machanic he new strait away. he told us we use cheap fuel out of shops , Asda Tescos and the likes they dont have any adatives, it clogs the fuel system and the fuel filter , Ive been using shell ever since and its never broke down. great video good luck. Ray K UK YNWA.
Nice video guys, thanks for sharing❤ The last time I had a problem like that it was the distributor. Try tuning it or replacing it... good luck you guys🌸
Tend to agree with the distributor. When I had a low idling and then cutting out that was the problem. I could tweak the idling higher but had to replace the distributor which did the trick.
Hey!!! Aww thanks for the warm welcome back to Jits - we appreciate your enthusiasm for her 🚐 💕 Unfortunately we will not be able to travel in her forever, so we hope when she retires, that you will still enjoy watching our travel films. 💛 xx Tania
Love seeing your content and adventures always. And know the feeling when it comes to a van with so much personality but also a bit of a temper because of age 🥰 we follow you guys from Sweden and have a ’88 chevy g20 van so we know mechanical issues happen 😂💖
Hey Guys!! Aww thanks so much! Yes, there is nothing quite like a grumpy old van 😂 🚐 wow, 1988!! That’s 10 years older than Jits! Amazing work! We really want to make it to Sweden at some point! A big Scandinavia trip is something that we really want to do one day! 🇸🇪 ☺️ Adam
Hi there. Glad to see u back in Scotland. As for jits has anyone checked for vacuum and inlet manifold leaks this could cause u to cut out at junctions or when idling
you should got to the bothy at Glentroll in the west coast of Scotland , i always carry firelighters and a newspaper also small bundle of kinderling sticks ,
Thanks you so much for a great program about Scotland. What amazing places!! Greetings from Sweden. We also have free cottages to stay overnight in when hiking 😁☀️🚐👍🌻
Hello Diana, thanks for your message! We love hearing that people have enjoyed our films! 😊 wow, Sweden!! We definitely have ambitions to do a big trip around Scandinavia one day! 😊 I think it would be an amazing part of the world to explore in a van! 🚐 and yes, a few other people have mentioned things like Bothys across Sweden! Very cool!! 😊 Adam
Started watching your videos because I have an autosleeper Harmony, and carried on because I enjoy the content so much! I haven't had engine problems (mine is a diesel) but have been regularly blowing fuses and last trip out hit something in the road that knocked the pipe out of my fresh water tank. So empathise with issues re older vans.
Hi Kate, thats such a lovely message, thanks so much!! 😊 your old Harmony sounds great! Very envious of your engine. Sorry to hear about your fresh water tank! I’ve always worried about something like that happening! Or even worse, a full tank of grey waste! 😂 Adam
Greetings from New Zealand. We call them huts here - heaps of them along hiking trails. On the popular trails, you can book them but many you just rock up to.
When you visited Fingal’s cave on Staffa I expected you to mention the music by Felix Mendelssohn. When he visited the cave he composed a piece of music called Fingal’s Cave overture (the Hebrides) in memory of his visit.
Hope you get the issue with JITS fixed. We had exactly the problem with a 54 Reg car. It turned out to be a faulty camshaft sensor. The problem is, it wasn't found until the engine management light came on that the garage was able to pinpoint the problem.

Hello from Canada!!!. I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking me along with you on all of your adventures. I am I my 60's and due to health issues I cannot travel. But everytime you guys are on an adventure you naturally seem to bring all of us with you. Your filming and commentaries for all the places you go are exciting and you are so natural and so friendly that you make me feel like a friend who is traveling with you. I just felt I had to reach our to you and wish you safe travels wherever you go. You guys are amazing and truly deserving of everything that has come your way. I look everyday to make sure I am not missing a new video. Please keep them coming. Love and God bless from a new fan.
Honestly guys this is just incredible. The storytelling and editing were just perfect, and the places you visited were amazing!
We absolutely love Scotland, and don't get up there nearly as much as we want to!
The shot with the rainbow was absolutely stunning. What a spectacular vlog as always. Amazing work!
Wow! Thank you so so much Stina for your wonderful comment and super generous gesture of $10!! I’m pretty sure you’re the first to leave us a ‘Super Thanks’ so it really is truly appreciated! Made our day! 💛 xx Tania
Embarrassingly enough just catching up on this video now and it's one of my FAVS! Parkups like the ones you found at the beginning are just the best, but omg hats and scarves in JUNE is blowing my mind, along with PUFFINS BEING REAL, EXISTING CREATURES. Somehow they seem too good for this world...the purity.... 😻
Hey you two!! 🥰 Aww so lovely to hear from you here in the comments and to know you enjoyed coming along with us to Scotland for a puffin-packed adventure! 💛 Thank you friends, for watching and supporting us! 🚐💕 xx Tania
@@JitsIntoTheSunset We need to get better at commenting, we watch them all! I've become way too passive in the comments sections of our fav channels. It's time to step up our game in that respect! Proud of you both ❤
@@ladiandmargaret Aww it’s never an issue for us! We know how crazy busy you both are will all the beautiful conversions you make, not to mention all that goes into your growing UA-cam community! 💛 Big big hugs to you, so lovely knowing you’re here! Xx
Oh my, the COLUMNS!!! 😱😱 How can something so stunning be 100% natural?! Honestly amazing. I may never be able to get there, but it's so incredible to adventure these places with you guys! ❤️
Thanks Niki! I know right, it’s beautiful… it almost looks like it was done on purpose! Yea, it’s impossible to visit everywhere, that’s why I think UA-cam can be so good, it’s a way of everyone sharing the places they’ve been with others 😌 so glad to know you enjoyed the film! 🚐 Adam
New subscriber here, coming over from the Newbys' channel. So glad to hear you talk about the importance of mental health. Many people underestimate the importance of seeking help for, and taking care of, their mental health. I have been to Scotland and Glencoe, but not Staffa or Mull. The massacre at Glencoe is such a sad story. That Yew tree is awesome! And I did know what a Bothy is/was, but I have never seen or been to one. Another thing to do when I get back to Scotland one day.
Hi Anne! Thanks for your lovely message. Yes, I totally agree about mental health being important and often overlooked! If you do go back, we would highly recommend visiting the islands if you have time. They are beautiful, it seemed to be much quieter 😊 Adam
Loved this, we love Scotland too. The puffins were so cute and the Yew Tree amazing. Thank you for sharing your journey
PUFFINS!!! What a treat to be surrounded by a sea of them! And yes, I have heard of bothies. I love the idea and philosophy behind them. It takes such a kind and generous spirit to build these shelters.
Right? I thought those were extinct
Hey Gen! I know! They are so beautiful aren’t they! And super cute! 😊 You're so right about the generosity, it's a whole community of people that do upkeep on them too, it's amazing! Tania gets very emotional when she thinks about it! Hope you're all good! 😊 Adam
Puffins?! I'm pleased to say they are not extinct! 😊
@@JitsIntoTheSunset Hey Adam! I see that you and T are switching it up here! Haha. Nice! I just finished having the latest omicron variant. Spoiler Alert: it's not a walk in the park like these other ones. It's a doozy! Now I must go and investigate who in the world started this awful rumour that Puffins are extinct...
@@Little_Sidhe Thank goodness that is an awful rumour that I must get to the bottom of!
Ooh, another lovely film from you two! Such stunning sights you shared with us. I did not know what a bothy was until you showed us. Also, the footage you captured is so simplistic and beautiful. The clip of the rainbow with the sheep... beautiful!
Thank you so much! Bothys are so cool aren’t they!! 😊 really glad you enjoyed the film! I actually went for a walk without my camera and then saw that rainbow! So I ran back to Jits as fast as I could to grab it. When I came back it was almost like the sheep were posing for me in front of the rainbow!! 🐑 🌈 😂 Adam
I have just met you on the Newbies and followed you right here. My husband's last name is Preble and there are a lot of them in Scotland as well as in the US, where we are. I think that there is even a Preble, Scotland, or a river.. I listened with sadness about your mom and your loss of her to cancer. Presently I mentor lung cancer patients for Mayo Clinic Connect, an online tributary of Mayo Clinic where patients support and help other patients online. I am a 24+ yr. lung cancer survivor and know well how draining and awful cancer is for family members.
This entire video has an ethereal intimacy to me. You get as close as possible as the Puffins allow and the space between is the sky and sounds of the earth and sea. Quite incredible that you caught this. And with squeals of such innocent discoveries, it simply is amazing. Thank you.
Hello Merry! Thank you so much for your beautiful message! I’m sorry I’m only just responding now!
Wow, your mentoring work sounds incredible! Well done, such important work. Very inspiring to hear you’ve survived cancer and you’re now out in the world helping others. Very heart warming!
Thanks again for your wonderful message, we’re really pleased to hear that you enjoyed our film! Sending you lots of love, Adam 🚐
Another stellar video!!! 😍I will get a shirt when they are for sale.😁 thank you for reaching out about your first video.It's been a wonderful journey to see the world with you both.
Really enjoying your podcasts, my husband and I are working through them all so thought it was time to check out your videos. We ❤️ Scotland, and islands like Mull (although avoid Mull during any school holidays!) I can't wait to work my way through your videos and the rest of the podcasts. Best of luck with Jits on your European travels.
Hi! We've been watching for a while but I don't think we've commented. Loved seeing Scotland - it's one of our favorite places. There are shelters along the Appalachian Train in the US. Some are free - and some have a small fee.
Hey Justine! It’s nice to meet you on here 💕 We always find it’s extra special to hear from those who have taken the time to follow along our journey for some time but have not yet commented. 🙈 Very glad to hear you enjoyed travelling to Scotland with us! It really is a special country. 🚐🏴💕 Also great to hear about the shelters on the Appalachian trail… now we know if we ever get the chance of a lifetime to do it! 😮 xx Tania
Absolutely love watching your videos, they are always SO beautiful! Scotland is definitely on our list for a road trip sometime soon! x
Another stunning vlog, thank you. Poor Jits, I can see the end coming but don't want it to. She has given you some incredible memories.
What a beautiful trip, the scenery and the way it was filmed, was stunning! That cave was mind blowingly gorgeous, being there in person must have been incredible! I loved the footage of the puffins and the fuzzy little caterpillar climbing the mountain, so cute! 😍
We have tramping huts in Aotearoa (New Zealand), but not free and a lot of them look very similar to the Bothy.
Great film as always guys! ❤️
Hi Nyree! Thank you so much for your incredibly thoughtful message! I love that you noticed and appreciate the little details, like the fuzzy caterpillar (which we named Steve 🐛). And thank you for sharing about the guys in New Zealand - NZ is a country that we absolutely cannot wait to discover! 💛 xx Tania
Hi guys! Thank you for the beautiful video! Adam, I am so sorry about your mother. And I agree absolutely that being open about experiencing the grief really helps to move forward and get over it in time. I lost my mum to cancer when I was 17 and for over 15 years thereafter I was denying my sorrow and grief which actually made me suffer even more until I found a good therapist who helped me to face the loss and eventually accept it. I wish you lots of strength and kindness.
Hi Pyatnova, thank you so much for your lovely message. I'm so sorry to hear about your mum. That must have been so hard. I think especially hard at such a young age. I'm glad you managed to find a good therapist, and that it worked for you! Sending you lots of love, Adam
Omg I was in absolute awe watching this vlog, fingals cave has now gone on my must visit in the next 12 months list! You are both a fountain of knowledge, thanks again for another amazing piece of cinematography 🐌🐧
Giant's Causeway is built of similar basalt columns. So interesting to see cave walls formed of them too.
@@mstrdiver have seen giants causeway and it's stunning, this cave though was unbelievable! Can't wait to see it in person!
That's so kind of you to say, thanks very much!! 😊 We love it when we know people enjoy our films! Keeps us motivated to keep putting in the work! 😊 And yes, Fingals Cave is amazing! We hope you make it there one day, you won’t regret it. The whole of Mull is beautiful! 🚐 Adam
Lovely to see you visiting Scotland. Your mum would be so proud of your travels in Jits. Such memories. I look forward to your merch! I need to check out your podcast too. Take care Tania and Adam.
Hi Linda! Thank you! I think she would be very happy to know that Jits is giving us so many amazing memories! Yay, we hope you enjoy the podcast!! 😌 🚐 Adam
Hi Adam and Tanya. I have a 2005 Citroen C3 which we've had from new. Originally it was my wife's but has since been passed down for my daughter's to learn to drive in and is still used today as a first car by the youngest. About 5 years ago it too had a issue when declutching, it would occasionally stall but not always. Idelling whilst stationary was fine. I'm no mechanic and took it too the local garage who checked and replaced many parts including the coil, ERG unit etc. Each time I'd drive away hoping it was fixed but it kept stalling until the one day the ECU was reprogrammed. Never stalled since. So the ECU is worth considering as the symptoms are similar and it's also a Citroen Peugeot engine!
I do hope you resolve JITs problems soon as it would be a shame for her to go.
Best regards Paul
Hi Paul, thanks so much for this, super useful to know! I'm glad you managed to fix your Citroen. We will definitely add this to the list of things to be checked! It's really frustrating taking a vehicle back to the mechanics so many times for the same issue isn't it! We're definitely going to do everything we can to get her fixed, we want to do one last big trip with Jits! 🚐 Thanks very much for taking the time to send us this, we really appreciate it! Adam
Yay! we are so happy you visited and enjoyed the oldest tree in Europe! Such a profound experience to be in the presence of such an old Yew tree!
Hey you two!! Aww what a pleasure it was too meet you both! 🤩 Thank you for the recommendation… we loved the Yew tree. A true hidden treasure! 💛 Big hugs! Xx Tania
So good to get to be with you again on your adventures. You nail it with your imagery, story telling, Jits and the two of you. Hugs from NZ.
How good to see you back home! Great views great editing as always. The two of you are so cute, as cute as the puffins. Thanks for sharing. Lots of love
Aww thank you!! Being compared to the cute puffins has made our day! 🥰 We appreciate you watching! ✨ xx Tania
8:57 I lost my mum a month ago, I’m converting my van and want to take myself away to nature too! Empathy towards you loosing a mum is insane. There are no words that can comfort you. It is honestly a journey
Lots of love, peace and strength to you x
@@anna-louisepowell3489 thank you 🙏
Thanks so much for your lovely message! I’m so sorry to hear about your mum! I once heard something about grief that really seems to be true… grief is like a heavy backpack, it doesn’t get any lighter, you just get better at carrying it. I think that’s a really good analogy because over time I don’t miss mum any less, I just get better and making my thoughts about her positive ones. I hope this makes sense to you? Sending you lots of love! Adam
Yes that engine problem needs to be fixed. I wonder if it might be as simple as a corroded electrical connection that half fails during idle (aka greater vibration during idle) causing the drama. Perhaps a good clean of all the the electrical connections with wd40 might do the trick. Your presentation on mental health was real impressive. Thank you for your great content. Love you both.
Have you tried your fuel cut off valve? Sometimes susceptible to an intermittent electrical fault. We also had an intermittent fault caused by crud getting pulled into the diesel filter. Would run fine, would idle fine, and then all of a sudden would stall when pulling up to a junction. Was then a real challenge to get started again. Super simple and quick thing to change to eliminate that from further investigation!
Adam I just lost my mom a month ago and the sorrow I feel inside like no other. God bless you friend!
Hi guys, as always, a brilliant piece of filming especially since it’s in Scotland ! 😉 I don’t listen to podcasts unfortunately, I barely find the time recently to watch some of the UA-cam videos that I follow, so it’s so nice to catch up with your latest episode. Take care and hopefully you can sort Jits out as we can all see how much she means to you both and more so Adam. Safe travels ! 👍🏻😉👋🏻
Hi Alan, thank you so much! Scotland makes filming easy 😂 it’s so beautiful!
Shame to hear you don’t listen to podcasts, we know what it’s like, we only find time to listen to some because we do so much driving! Jits mysteriously seems to be running perfectly at the moment. But as soon as we get comfortable she will take us by surprise! 😂 🚐 🔧 Adam
Great as always. I wanted to offer a thought on performance issue with Jits. I had an old Toyota years ago. It was quite reliable, except when it wasn't. Out of the blue, it would stall. Took some trial and error, but it was the fuel filter. Old gas tank, lots of sediment, means replacement more often. Happy trails! From Halifax NS.
Hi Brian, thanks so much for this! Very helpful, we will definitely pass this on to the mechanic! 🔧 Adam
PUFFINS!!! I hope to see them when I go back to Scotland someday! They are the cutest!!!
I found you by chance but am already hooked. I will enjoy following you both on your future adventures. New subscriber.
Hi Braden, 🥳 Thank you so much for subscribing! Welcome to the channel! Really glad to hear you're enjoying the videos! 😊 🚐 Adam
Oh my goodness. I follow on Instagram and knew you had done the Pap etc but I finally had time to watch this afternoon and as you went to Mull my heart was with you. My husband (who died in 2019) and I loved it there and on Iona. My heart raced and tightened and the tears flowed (something that is happening less) then your sponsor ‘bit’ came on. Made me wonder if I need help. Thank you for sharing my beautiful adopted home
Hi Helen! Thank you so much for your thoughtful message! We are so sorry to hear about your husband! I would say that speaking to someone who can support you, is always a good idea. It's nice to talk, I love talking about my mum. I would say give therapy a go and if it's not for you then you can always stop. You have nothing to lose and so much to gain from getting support. Sending you lots of love, Adam 😊
Another top video and really enjoying your podcasts too guys, it’s a very nice chilled listen after work as I’m unwinding dreaming of weekends away and holidays 👍🏻😂
Lovely video guys, Mull & Iona are beautiful islands.
If you do ever go up to Scotland again I'd recommend the Outer Hebrides, some stunning scenery and if you're really lucky you might see dolphins between the ferry crossings
Thank so much! Delighted to hear you enjoyed watching. 🥰 Oh absolutely! We have plans to return to Scotland and spending time really getting to know the Outer Hebrides - we’ve only ever heard great things! 🏴🌟 Also… will go anywhere for dolphins! 🐬🤪 xx Tania
Lovely film. Aren't Puffins gorgeous. Really looking forward to subsequent vlogs.
Thank you
Thanks so much, Alan! Appreciate you taking the time to watch 😊 and delighted you enjoyed the puffins too! They really are fascinating creatures! 🐧💕 Glad to have you along for the ride! 🚐 xx Tania
Hi!!
I found out about you both through Nicki and Carlo.
I was so excited that you both visited Scotland!! Yay!!
I have visited Scotland several times and adore being there.
My Great grand father was born in Scotland.
Can't wait to see where you will go next! Bon Voyage! 💕
Amazing As Always
Hi guys we really enjoyed this video, Scotland 🏴 is truly breathtaking. The puffins were amazing looks like you had a really great day. We feel your pain, we have a 32 year old motorhome and she is always breaking down!! On our way home from the Cairngorms in March her engine blew up and we have been without her ever since 🥲 we are hoping to have her back this week 🤞
Omg!! I’m so sorry to hear that, that’s horrible! Must have been very scary! I really hope she gets fixed up soon! 🤞🏼 And yes, Scotland is breathtaking, we had such a great time! Thanks for the message and good luck with your van 🚐 Adam
@@JitsIntoTheSunset yes it was scary but you know what it’s like with an old van there is always something 😅 hoping to have her back soon. take care Sarah
Have been sooooooo looking forward to this film! What an absolutely fantastic episode of your travels. So pleased you enjoyed Mull, it's one of our favourite places, it's perfect rain/hail/or shine! Glad to see you took a Staff Tours experience to both isles, and aren't puffins just the most?! Having just listened to the first ep of the podcast, it's a great listen, anyone who's reading this and hasn't listened yet, go do! It's unmissable, and Tania and Adam are being far too modest! You have to love Jits' passion for collecting different international experiences, she's just a sociable old gal who loves to get to know others 🤣😂 Looking forward to the next poddy and UA-cam film! Stay safe and open roads!! xx
Hands down on of the sweetest, most thoughtful messages we’ve received!! Thank you, thank you for taking the time to watch and leave us such kind and encouraging words… not to mention your DM on Instagram. 🥹💕 We really appreciate you being here, THANK YOU!! Xx Tania
@@JitsIntoTheSunset Tania, you reap what you sow, lovely, and you are a true gem (so is Adam for that matter!!!). Have a fab week, and see you on the 'gram xx
Loved every minute of this Scottish adventure, having toured the highlands and isles myself via camper/bike it’s truly an amazing country that never fails to disappoint, keep up the great content guy’s👌🚐
Cheers Will! We couldn't agree more! Such an amazing country! 😊 I love that it's just up the road too! You don't have to fly all he way to NZ or Canada! 😊 🚐 Adam
Welcome back ! Lovely to see your Scotland trip! Beautifully shot and edited as ever. Look forward to your next adventure and congratulations on the podcast again you pair ! X
Hey guys! Yay! Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed the film 😌 we’ll try not to leave it so long next time 😳 Adam
@@JitsIntoTheSunset no worries 😉 just do you two and be happy 😃 x
Hi guys
Try replacing your air filter or even remove it to see how it runs as with all the midges in Scotland it’s probably blocked your air filter slightly 👍🏻
Let me no if that helps
We love Glencoe and can’t wait to go back. That tree was incredible to see and your hike to the breathtaking views were incredible ~ Sam 💁🏼♀️🚐✨💚
Wow !!!! Another mesmerizing epic video . You guys always motivate us to explore our surroundings . wish you all the best😍😘
Stunning production as always guys. Love love Scotland.
Thank you!! We love Scotland too! 🏴
Seeing puffins is top of my list for whenever we travel to Scotland! Not even a bird watcher but they have always looked so adorable.
Even better when big arsed eagles are around ,my bro hit one in the car,tough birds but just shook it's self aff and flew away
I've been staying in bothies for over 40 years and that was a 5-star bothy! Some of them just have a dirt floor and no furniture etc. Some kind of sleeping pad is definitely a good idea! Similar things exist in England and Ireland and there are shepherd's huts in the Pyrenees and other mountain ranges. There are of course mountain huts in the alps but they are more like hostels than bothies. Finally, there are the open shelters on trails like the US Appalachian Trail. But I think Scotland has the biggest number and variety of places - everything from uninhabited islands to mountain tops. But they are slowly dying out, there are only about half as many now as there were in the 70s.
In Alaska in the U.S., they do sometimes have cabins for people if they get lost or have to make emergency bush plane landings. I’m not sure if it’s exactly the same thing as those Bothys. Jits would have so much fun doing a road trip through Alaska! Maybe someday.
Oh wow, that’s very interesting indeed, thank you for sharing!🤓 Oh yes…. Alaska in Jits would be an absolute DREAM! 🚐✨ Unfortunately, not sure she would ever make it with her ongoing mechanical issues 😩 xx Tania
Don’t know if you still have JITS but the breakdowns are most likely to be electrical problems. The good news is that the solutions are quite inexpensive. If I were you I would find a mechanic and ask him to replace the coil packs ( The boxer probably has two,) replace spark plugs, pints if the ign8ti9n is not electronic, all the leads. If it has a distributor you should change the capacitor.
Another absolutely stunning video lads, like beyond stunning actually! The quality of your shots is second to none. Absolutely class. Fair play and good luck with the inevitable growth of your channel ❤️
Hi Mick, thanks so much for your extraordinarily kind words! We put a lot of work into our films and to know it’s appreciated really does mean a lot. We often question weather we should be posting more often and not focusing so much on spending all this time on fewer films, but when we get messages like this it’s a reminder to keep doing what we’re doing!! So thank you! Adam
Bothies are in remote mountainous areas of Scotland, Northern England, Ulster and Wales. The MBA has a map of them all.
I’m Scottish and I’ve still never been to any of these places. Live in Edinburgh. Really need to go see them. Great video guys. New sub. 👍🏴
I love your videos and especially the Scotland ones. It's the home of my heart.
Hey Patricia!! Aww thanks so much! Makes me so happy to hear that you appreciate our film and could bring you some great Scotland memories! It really is an amazing country! 🏴💕 Appreciate you watching and following along our journey. 🥰 xx Tania
Aww, I loved this video. Thank you for showcasing this gorgeous country in the most beautiful way 💙
My partner and I are getting married in Fortingall next year 🥳 and we feel incredibly lucky that we get to call Scotland home.
Hi Morven, that sounds absolutely lovely! Scotland is a wonderful place to call home!!
Thanks so much for watching!! Really glad to hear you enjoyed it 😊 🏴 🚐 Adam
I can't believe no one is asking about that adorable Jits sweatshirt!! Please share details. I tried to search your accounts, but couldn't find any merch for sale. Love you guys so much. Tania's storytelling is so calming and engaging. Thanks for sharing your travels with us!
Great video again thanks for sharing. Scotland is always amazing and time of year
Thanks so much, Declan! 💛 You’re absolutely right, Scotland is beautiful all seasons! 🏴💕 Appreciate you being here and for sticking around since our Austria adventures! 🚐 ✨ xx Tania
always so fantastically narrated and beautiful people to boot. x
I dont know if you still have that van but; Your fuel filler cap might be blocked. IE if there is no breather hole or it is blocked. It causes a vacuum in the fuel tank which stops fuel getting to the engine. That is what it sounds like.
Great to see you back exploring and making beautiful films in Scotland! Love the merch designs and colours too 🥰
Hi Hannah! Yay! We're so happy to be back on the road too! Hoping that Jits is just as excited as us 😬 🔧 Aww yay, glad to hear you like the merch! We're super happy with it! 😊 👕 Adam
There are sensors called the knock sensor underneath the intake. They control the amount of air that comes into the engine. They can start going bad without throwing codes and will be most noticable at slower speeds and higher idle. Once they go completely out the engine will make a knocking noise hence the name. If there's no codes or mechanics are scratching their heads it's worth a try.
Hi Jessie, that's a great shout! Thank you very much! We will get that looked into! 😊 🔧 🚐 Adam
Yay! Loved this episode of Scotland 👍
Thank you so much Dale! Scotland rocks! 🚐 😊 Adam
Man, I could just feel the joy of you guys watching the Puffins! ❤️ Such a beautiful spot too, what a cliffside ⛰️
Hi Chris! Haha, The puffins were so good!! We really loved it 😊 it was the fact that we could get so close to them, we didn’t realise they were so chilled! 😌 Adam
Similar to Bothys there are refuges in France, some are paying as you get food and heating but some are completely free and they range from ones including a stove to litterally just four walls and a roof
Your videos stir my soul and makes me want to travel all the more! Thank you!
Wow, what a lovely message! Thank you so much! That’s the goal! I hope you manage to do some travelling 😌 Adam
'The worst day in Scotland is better than the best day anywhere else'. - Me 🤗 I was there during an August for the Fringe, the Tattoo and few days in the HIghlands. I would literally take pictures walking into a spot in Glencoe, and then take another set on the way out because the weather had changed and it was a completely different set of photos! 🤣🤣 Best trip of my life. 💙🩵💙
About the engine problem, I'm no professional mechanic but I had similar problems with my truck and I swapped out the oxygen sensors and the mass air flow sensor and it did it for me.
Thanks Joel! That's a good idea, i'll add it to the ever expanding list for the mechanics!! Adam
Love seeing you guys back in Jits, you both look so happy & high on life. Amazing footage as always. Sinéad X
Aww thank you so much, Sinéad!! We really do feel so lucky to be back on the road in Jits, surrounded by nature! I’m glad that our emotions shine through!! 💛 Appreciate you being here for the journey! ✨ xx Tania
Amazing new Travel Film from Scotland. We absolutely love travelling through your eyes and how cute are the puffins. Incredible! We've been to Scotland just a few weeks ago and unfortunately didn't manage to get a whisky distillery tour, so we are really happy to get to see it.
Enjoy your time in warm sunny Portugal - oh and we love your Merch design and new Podcast.
Greetings from Germany ✌
Hey Guys!! Scotland is excellent! Glad you got to experience it in your van too! 😊 Portugal has been lovely. Heading back to Jits next week and hoping to get her back on the road after taking her for a once over with the mechanic 🔧 🤞 Yaaay, so glad you've checked out the Podcast!! Hoping to get the merch out soon too! 😊 👕 🚐 Adam
Hi about your van check your throttle body and see if its dirty the butter fly opening and clean with carb cleaner also check your breather hoses for blockages.good luck
Hugs Adam! I lost Dad a good few years ago now and I know how tough it is. Time doesn't heal as such but it does teach you to have a good tool kit to help with missing someone. All in your own time and your own way. From one Devonian to another have fun both of you and always a pleasure to watch these ❤️
Hey mate, thanks for your message. Sorry to hear about your dad. Yeah, it doesn't get better, you just get better at dealing with it... if that makes sense? 😂 Sending love! Adam
@@JitsIntoTheSunset you definitely do mate 😊
Loved this. Great story telling and love all the facts. That hike looked a mission but wow the views. Hope you can get jits fixed, she means so much to you both. Take care x 🦜
Aww thank you, Linda!! Always appreciate reading messages from you, here! Thank you for watching (and listening to our podcast! 😉) 😘✨ xx T
Hi, I’ve just discovered you via The Newbys. I’ve only watched two but I’m really impressed by your amazing videography and editing. Looking forward to catching up backwards 😂
Thanks Lorraine! That’s very kind of you to say! Really please that you enjoy our films! 😊 we hope you enjoyed your backwards catch up 😂 Adam
Hey guys, I'm catching up on your channel and just found out about your podcast so I went ahead and subscribed! I'm so excited!! Thanks! 😊💜🙏
Hi Onnie! That’s great!! Thanks so much!! 😊 hope you enjoy the podcast, we really enjoy doing it and have had some brilliant guests! 🚐 Adam
sounds like your van has a vacuum leak. When your slowing down the brakes take more vacuum from the engine. So you should have all vacuum hoses and intake gaskets inspected . you can spray all these areas with WD-40 while the van is running and if the idle increases thats where the leak is.
Well done guy’s as you really do top quality vlogs. Great shooting & editing by Adam and Tania is a brilliant commentator with a captivating voice and accent. Keep up the good work 👏👍👍👏
Thanks Graeme! That's a very, very nice message to read! It means so much when people appreciate our hard work! 😊 🎥 Adam
YAY!!!! Good to see you!
Yay!! It’s great to see YOU Janelle! Thank you for taking a front row seat to follow along our Scotland road trip! ✨ xx Tania
My car use to break down. In the end it was masking tape in the fuel tank that would float up and cut power. Once it floated down it would work!
Hello! So good to see your new video: sublime!! I am going to subscribe to your podcast. :) Your videos are always beautiful; the story telling, the shots, your opinions/thoughts. Xo
Aww thank you so so much!! This is so kind of you to say! Lights us up to read your appreciation for our work, so a million times, thank you! 💛 Hope you are having a wonderful weekend so far! Xx Tania
My mini used to do that, We took it to a machanic he new strait away. he told us we use cheap fuel out of shops , Asda Tescos and the likes they dont have any adatives, it clogs the fuel system and the fuel filter , Ive been using shell ever since and its never broke down. great video good luck. Ray K UK YNWA.
Nice video guys, thanks for sharing❤
The last time I had a problem like that it was the distributor.
Try tuning it or replacing it... good luck you guys🌸
Tend to agree with the distributor. When I had a low idling and then cutting out that was the problem. I could tweak the idling higher but had to replace the distributor which did the trick.
Thanks!! Yes, this is something we will definitely get looked at! 🔧 👀 Adam
Watching your videos is like listening to poetry!🌿
Thank youuuu 🥹 We appreciate your appreciation for our writing! 💕 xx Tania
Back in Jits!! Yay I`ll start watching you again. Woo Hoo!!
Hey!!! Aww thanks for the warm welcome back to Jits - we appreciate your enthusiasm for her 🚐 💕 Unfortunately we will not be able to travel in her forever, so we hope when she retires, that you will still enjoy watching our travel films. 💛 xx Tania
Love seeing your content and adventures always. And know the feeling when it comes to a van with so much personality but also a bit of a temper because of age 🥰 we follow you guys from Sweden and have a ’88 chevy g20 van so we know mechanical issues happen 😂💖
Hey Guys!! Aww thanks so much! Yes, there is nothing quite like a grumpy old van 😂 🚐 wow, 1988!! That’s 10 years older than Jits! Amazing work! We really want to make it to Sweden at some point! A big Scandinavia trip is something that we really want to do one day! 🇸🇪 ☺️ Adam
Great video , I’m so surprised you’ve never heard of Bothy’s before, there in northern England and Wales . Cheers from Australia
I think your clutch might be sticking? You brake, clutch sticks when you engage, brakes stop engine as well as Jits.
Hi there. Glad to see u back in Scotland. As for jits has anyone checked for vacuum and inlet manifold leaks this could cause u to cut out at junctions or when idling
you should got to the bothy at Glentroll in the west coast of Scotland , i always carry firelighters and a newspaper also small bundle of kinderling sticks ,
Thanks you so much for a great program about Scotland. What amazing places!! Greetings from Sweden. We also have free cottages to stay overnight in when hiking 😁☀️🚐👍🌻
Hello Diana, thanks for your message! We love hearing that people have enjoyed our films! 😊 wow, Sweden!! We definitely have ambitions to do a big trip around Scandinavia one day! 😊 I think it would be an amazing part of the world to explore in a van! 🚐 and yes, a few other people have mentioned things like Bothys across Sweden! Very cool!! 😊 Adam
Started watching your videos because I have an autosleeper Harmony, and carried on because I enjoy the content so much! I haven't had engine problems (mine is a diesel) but have been regularly blowing fuses and last trip out hit something in the road that knocked the pipe out of my fresh water tank. So empathise with issues re older vans.
Hi Kate, thats such a lovely message, thanks so much!! 😊 your old Harmony sounds great! Very envious of your engine. Sorry to hear about your fresh water tank! I’ve always worried about something like that happening! Or even worse, a full tank of grey waste! 😂 Adam
Hi from Cornwall. Saw you on one of Travel Beans' vlogs. Thanks for these Scottish views. Haven't been yet, but it's on my list. 🌿💙
Hi Lisa!! Yay, we love the beans!! I hope you make it to Scotland soon! You definitely won’t regret it! 🏴 🚐 Adam
Greetings from New Zealand. We call them huts here - heaps of them along hiking trails. On the popular trails, you can book them but many you just rock up to.
When you visited Fingal’s cave on Staffa I expected you to mention the music by Felix Mendelssohn. When he visited the cave he composed a piece of music called Fingal’s Cave overture (the Hebrides) in memory of his visit.
Check to make sure fuel and oxygen filters in the vehicle are clean and clear. Combustion engine needs both. Regards
When in Scotland take an umbrella and expect rain, sunshine is a rare bonus.
😂 very good idea! 🌧 🚐 Adam
Your cinematography is stunning! Always a pleasure to watch your films, thanks for taking us along with you!
What a lovely message, thanks Georgie! 😊 It's always nice to hear when people appreciate our work! 🚐 Adam
Hope you get the issue with JITS fixed. We had exactly the problem with a 54 Reg car. It turned out to be a faulty camshaft sensor. The problem is, it wasn't found until the engine management light came on that the garage was able to pinpoint the problem.
