Should have reused the base plate off the binned heater with the ring around it for protection of the hoses. They're usually better quality than the one included with the Chinese unit.

@CHOPSZOOKER Месяц назад

Was just about to say that. Especially because the original installation has one big hole.

@Kb3164-t3z Месяц назад

Yes use the original mount . Much better protection . We had ours specially made at the time .

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

Thanks all! It seemed to be one unit and not removable on the old one 👍🏻

@cynthiakavanagh6972 28 дней назад

I used to condition our cassette seal with cooking oil when I was giving it all a good clean. Quick, cheap and easy, and no problems. We have a composting loo these days and would never go back to a cassette toilet. 😊

@nowornever_aus 26 дней назад

Thanks, we’ve also been toil oil is the go!

@cynthiakavanagh6972 28 дней назад

We spent a few days last week at Inskip Point with a day trip to K’gari. It was our first, but hopefully not last. Have a great time. Your turn next, Erin 😊😊

@nowornever_aus 26 дней назад

Beautiful spot there!

@sleepingaroundfromtowntoto4312 Месяц назад

hi love watching the reno but i was watching when you were changing the heater you threw the bottom bracket out on the old heater which is much better than the one you get with the heater it had a bit of pipe on it which fits into the hole that was in the floor more snug have a look at video you will see what i mean but other than that i have loved the reno great job.

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

Thanks! The old unit seamed to be one piece and not removable unfortunately

@miriamtwiname9627 28 дней назад

Getting there. Looking forward to your new adventures

@nowornever_aus 28 дней назад

Thanks!

haha straight away i recognised IN THE BIN. Good to see someone else watches them and giving them a shout out haha

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

Love mighty car mods!

@katrinaolive2505 Месяц назад

Bit of silicon grease on the seal each empty and we found our wheels and plastic had worn down just a smidge so 2 little squares of fibro (one under each corner near the hatch door) and no more pee mess (which Mum had to clean out each time 🤢). Easiest fix! Anything similar thickness would also work (piece of plastic chopping board or timber)

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

Thank you that may be contributing with ours too!

@josechapman7611 27 дней назад

Thanks for putting this up I will try the squares of fibro to lift it up

@shanehirst3964 27 дней назад

We upgraded our toilet to compost (OGO) 5 months ago best thing we ever did..

@nowornever_aus 26 дней назад

We’ve heard they are good

@colinpalin2730 Месяц назад

I know about in the bin but you can always go and get it from the bin if necessary

@Relaxingkiwi Месяц назад

I reckon you should upgrade the rims to black, would set it off

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

Agreed!

@filthyoffroadadventures 29 дней назад

😂We just last week contacted Lifestyle and changed our order from a chemical toilet to a composting one. After watching this I am happy with our decision 🤣 Re diesel heater its the same one we installed in our camper. If you have not found the instructions I can go digging for you.

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

You’ll have to let us know your thoughts on the composting after you’ve had it a while!

@filthyoffroadadventures 29 дней назад

@@nowornever_aus will do. We had a long conversation with a couple we camped next to in Cooper Creek and they convinced us. Wo what has become of us talking about toilets around the camp fire 🤣😂

@eddiepaul7107 Месяц назад

I heard a romour you used to build caravans great job guys be safe on 5he road love you4 adventures thanks for the entertainment each week

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

@nzmarkb8713 Месяц назад

You need to find someone who’s worked on caravans to give you a hand mate😉

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

@elel8189 Месяц назад

Hey guys, Great work on the refurbishment and entertainment. Just something that may be of interest regarding the red colouring on your drawbar. I bought a van which had a fair bit of red dust colouring and I used this product Autoglym Magma (500ml) and got rid of most of it fairly easily. Just squirt in on the affected areas, let it react, it turns purple and then hose off with water before it dries. Some areas will take a couple of washes, also you may want to buy larger quantities if there is a lot of areas to clean.

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

Thank you! Will look into this product 👍🏻

@josechapman7611 28 дней назад

Thanks for doing the toilet ,I have experienced the leak ,it only leaks when you close the toilet after you have been ,if I leave it open and just close the lid no leaking ,I will be changeing the seal so interested to see how yours perform thanks ,you have been so helpfulll with your vids I have learnt a lot thankyou guys

@tim18118 Месяц назад

Talk about looking through the ‘brown window’….. 😂 That’s really useful info, thanks! Same diesel heater I put in our van, they work great. Just the fuel pump is a bit noisy… silencing that is a project for another day.

A very informative episode guys well done I wouldn’t change the wheel spats they look great 🍺🍺👍

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

Thanks mate! Yeah I agree I think they look good now they are back on 👌🏼

@michaeldavis8712 Месяц назад

Coming along, nicely. Silicon spray the that toilet seal each time you dump your tank, it will stop the leaking

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

Thanks!

Hey guys I’m no expert but maybe wash out the cassette before you work on it. Great teamwork

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

@Adam-ox6zy 29 дней назад

$10 for the seal, $100 for the hazmat suit… priceless😂 And white fuel line for the heater 👍 Get a proper in line fuel filter too (the ‘factory’ ones are crap). Make sure there’s no air bubbles in the fuel line after priming.👍 And ensure the wiring to the heater glow plug from the battery can carry 8-10amps for at least 5 min over the distance that it runs👍 Ask me how I know all this 😂

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

😂 I’m guessing you used to build caravans?!

@ronluthe1552 Месяц назад

Looking forward to the final “installment” of the heater.

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

Cheers mate!

@adamberg1379 Месяц назад

I laughed hard at you servicing your poo catcher and remember a time when I used to service and repair caravans. A customer complained their toilet would not flush and had a red light on. Funny enough that van sat out the back lot for a month or so waiting for the owner to come and remove the catcher and clean the bay as they didn’t like the addition service fee ($$$$$) that we were going to charge them.

@nowornever_aus 29 дней назад

🤮🤢 no way would I clean someone else’s!
