    Glad all turned out well🙏🏻💓
    In all honesty the ramp/tire position made me nervous.. I always put Jack stands or cinder blocks would work too underneath just for extra precautions,especially when using all 4 ramps.
    Just a friendly tip out of concern 😊

    The green fuel line is rubbish, i would order the clear fuel line with the black rubber bits, i had the green fuel line and it goes brittle within a year and starts leaking because it is sooo thin. Please replace the fuel line with the thicker line.

    Awe brings back memories of when you 2 first met and learning with Issac. Are you going to name the van. I think people like that. Also i think it would be interesting if you to a trip to washington. And explored and share with us some of you Indian heritage. You have a calming and informative nature to your voice.

    I've watched several UA-camrs who had problems with the diesel heater install and function. I'm glad Isaac and you were able to get it installed. I'd try running it. Do you watch Van City Van Life, Chrome? He's one of the people who had horrible problems and was stuck in a non-insulated van in a snowstorm. It didn't go well...

  • @-RyN-23
    @-RyN-23 11 місяців тому

    I have worked on cars for a while an next time j you can just do the front tires on the ramp since its already got room under it. Makes it way easier an raises it all the way back to the rear tires just less lift as you go back. But itll give plenty of room. Hope this helps. An no alot of sprinters dont have the fuel port. It depends on what options was available on that style of sprinter and the year.

    Everything I've read has said it's a Bad Idea to tap into the main fuel line like you did. I sincerly hope that setup doesn't cause you troubles.
    Does that van have the optional block heater? It would be installed right behind the driver's side headlight. If so, that would also be a diesel heater, though it's hydronic vs air; hence, there would be a thinner fuel line running from the top of the main tank to that. Folks often tee off that line for when installing air heaters.
