    I saw on VGG, that sometimes the electric pumps supply a bit too much fuel pressure. If you are over about 3 or 4 PSI, then it may push past the needle and seat, and use lots and lots of fuel. If so... you could run a fuel pressure regulator to get the fuel pressure in the correct range. Also, I'd keep an eye on the Gas-in the fuel situation. Getting 3 mpg... there is a good chance a lot of fuel is running past the rings, and thinning down your oil. Just a couple thoughts from an Old guy, who used to work on cars. Great video.

    I think that motorhome is just awesome and what a great save. I don't think I would toe that tiny house too far maybe where you live you don't have Bridges but that thing looks like it's sticks quite a few feet over the top of that RV. Maybe a short little Bunk house to pull around behind it would possibly suit the family. I have a feeling that RV is going to be hard to replace. Then again a guy did
    pretty good getting it for a song and fixing it up. Keep up the great content!

    Honestly I'll be sad to not see the barth, but if you put some work into the diesel that will satisfy my watching. It's funny you mention the non-family setup. My 77 champion was setup for a mess of kids, I had to rebuild it as a two person setup for me & the mrs. Granted the cough folds out for a guest, but honestly if the if the grandkids want to camp with us we have a nice pop-up that we can tow with the champion.

    I am fairly sure that the those small booster boxes are only capable of providing high current for a very short period of time, which is why it is designed to time out like that.
    Frustrating I know, but not as frustrating as seeing your boost current dissolve before your eyes and before you manage to start your engine.

    Every married man needs his Man Cave to escape from the everyday BS. Can’t wait to see your shop after it gets built.

      I could definitely use a man cave too. We are renovating a two floor apartment in the middle of Copenhagen (Denmark) while living in it for the second year and everywhere else to chill for a moment or two would be incredible. 😀

    I don' t understand why you added water to it before you towed the house. What's up with that?
