Follow along as Sylvie and Yvan enjoy life while building and living in their bus.
A fun loving couple that travels in their bus , enjoying everything life has to offer. They are currently traveling in the 1995 MCI 102DL3 that they converted into their third tiny home on wheels.
Taking advise from someone running ironman tires is like taking financial advise from a gambler. You'll never know when you get burned but will most likely get burned
That engine must be quite worn out. Befor I went to work for GM testing Detroit's for compliance with EPA emission standards, I saw them in Awry Bakery trucks. Back then they had an ether "pellet" to use on cold days. Later I saw Cummins 250's that had a can of ether mounted right on the engine for cold starts. I can tell you that if this was a normal starting 6/71 when I was testing, it would not be certified for sale. But, I am a purist at heart, that is not pollution, it's unburned Diesel fuel and maybe engine oil, not the same as a gasoline Hydro Carbon, Co or Nox emission at all. Most of it is particulate and it falls out of the air to the ground. I personally would keep using it if it clears up after it gets hot hot hot, and I'd use starting fluid and maybe even propane to get it up and running on cold days. But, that sound!!! Somewhere on youtube there are two trucks that someone recorded as they drove by, one is a 4 cycle and the other a Detroit 2 cycle. There is no comparison in sound, the 4 cycles sound like Helicopter flying by with it's chop chop chop, then comes the Detroit, M M M M M M M. It's really amazing when you hear them one after the other like in that video. I'll take the Detroit anytime and twice on Sunday over the 4 cycle chop chop chop, even if it did smoke. But, I tested them against a dyno for emission certification, so I have a special place for that sound in my heart. Thanks GM for allowing me to run your awesome prestigious Detroit's at the Milford Proving Ground Vehicle Emission Laboratory VEL, bldg. 31, it was a blast and I'll never forget it. ben/ michigan
I’m going to be honest, every time someone brings up the topic of living in a bus, I imagine a bus that’s all cramped and older. This is bus that I would totally live in! How much did it cost?
Sympathies à Mme Sylvie sa famille et à toi Yvan,nous surveillons vos vidéos avec votre Bus et votre compagnie DIY que j’adore j’ai tout vos produits 👍
Great idea! If there is already fuel pressure in the lines, would fuel pour out when trying to tap into the secondary fuel filter? I'd like to install this on my bus.
Been welding poly pro and pvc for years. Unfortunately I never knew of the pendulum method. Thanks. Don’t forget to leave the air on when you shut off the heat. Ask me how I know. lol.
Great video series! Thanks, learned a ton. Maybe I missed it, but what was the thickness of plastics you were using? Also, where did you source your plastic? Somewhere local, or an online distributor? Thanks!
