    How did you manage to change the oil without spilling any?? 😂
    K&N do a washable air filter for the crafter save you being given the wrong one again. Enjoy the trip and Merry Christmas 🎄

      @@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife I done the same in the past, i sucked out of the dip stick tube with a cheap 12v pump from ebay. Best way to learn is to do it yourself.

    How do Sam. Nice little how to video which I enjoyed watching. I was interested in the "added 600ml liquid moly" to the oil as Ive never heard of it. does it do anything worthwhile to the running of the engine. I'm asking as I'm having a new timing chain fitted on Viv in three weeks by a chap called Barry Hayes whom everyone on all the van forums raves about. He'll be servicing Viv as part of the replacement so if the liquid moly helps the engine, I'll buy some. I'll be broke for a few weeks after that lol but worth it for Viv to be running smooth. I'll then start saving for our Worthing meetup as I love our meets and getting back together with fab friends. Much respect🙏- Kenny

      Liquid molly is an additive to help protect the engine as the van has just turned 100k I'm gonna keep adding it to the oil for extra protection 😁👍

    Tech of 33 years,no criticism at all , but the very first thing I was taught as an apprentice was to hold the dip stick downwards rather than upwards, oil runs down the stick &gives a inaccurate reading,when pulling the stick out try to keep the stick pointing to the ground . All the best butty .
