Thank you, Gary. I will be using seam sealant. Similar to what they use to put skylights in campers, but this one goes hard rather than staying soft

I do apologise. I thought you were commenting on a van I'm currently working on. This van I decided it was too far gone in the end and scraped it. This video was done in the early stages of my welding skills and knowledge. Please see some of my latter videos

Can you translate it into English, please 🙏

Unfortunately, all but the listed buildings have been knocked down to make way for a new village.

We plan on visiting again this year. Beautiful part of the world 🌎

Absolutely mate. Most of my travals were on my own. There is lots of advantages of a micro camper too. One being you can get under hight barriers. 2nd, you can park pritty much anywhere as people don't tend to think a small van would have someone sleeping in it. And you can have all the goodies that a bigger van has with just a little planning. Not to mention cheaper insurance, lower fuel cost. Not to mention, if it's a newer small van no tax to pay

Hi Gavin, mine is a 2.4 none turbo. However, I would persum it would be a similar if not the same set up.

Hi how did you remove the metal casing?

@gavinp6025 hammer and chisel along the seam. Or you could use a mini hobby disk cutter.. just be careful not to hit the screw in the fuel pump with the hammer

Thank you, obrigado

Thank you. And good luck with your bike. You definitely won't go wrong with this stuff

Lol, it's that easy to come of. I had to remove it to get the door card off to access the door lock, which I had to replace

I have yes. It's currently my daily driver

Hi, I don't think it was branded. They are on eBay and amazon under camping showers. They are all pretty much the same thing, so there really is no need to go for the most expensive.

Thank you 😊

I have a license for the music in the video, which is fully displayed in the description of the video

I think you may have been there when I was

@@Adventure.with.RobbieYour name rings a bell but I can't picture you... Was you in Springfield? I was at the Cottage.

@lordpurchase9189 Yes, I was in Springfield. Have you joined the Facebook group ?

It wasn't too bad. The location was good. The food was OK. Entertainment for the kids was great. Unfortunately, it's not a great deal for adults. The biggest letdown for us was getting so ill. I personally don't know how I made the trip back home on the aeroplane. There were a lot of other people who were ill as well who we had stayed in contact with us to this day. None of us had covid. The only things we could put it down to was either the air conditioning or the damp that developed during our stay.

Thank you. 😊

Thank you 😊

Thank you 😊

The wire you see left on the solenoid is just a cut of bit left over. There is only the two wires. One going to the pump/earthing point and the other going to the solenoid itself.

@@Adventure.with.Robbie ooh okay. I was confused because on the positive side you had a exposed cope wire ( or part of a wire ) and it looked like two. Doing this tomorrow morning. Cheers from being stranded stranded in Valencia parking lot in front of 16 Tesla chargers that destroyed my inmobizer 🤦 lol Also that one blue pipe with a fat screw to remove to get access to the solenoid is the fuel intake as far as I know and if you remove it it may intake some air that will have to be extracted . You didn't do this or did you? Big thanks

I believe the fuel system is a self bleed system. I didn't have to bleed mine. You can also put a switch on the dash and connect that up to then two wires for extra security. Meaning when it's turned off, the engine won't start.. defiantly worth doing whole you got all the front end of. It's also ideal to do the glow plugs at the same time whole you have easy access

@@Adventure.with.Robbie ooh I see. Yeah manual inmobizer is definitely a must without that box in there... Otherwise a thief can be start pushed or just tap into cables lol. I'll also put in a hidden GPS. Thanks boss. I'll let you know if this has worked for me

@Jack.D5 you have any issues. Just send us a msg. If I can help, I will do

To be fair, the food was alright. There is plenty of choice. Kids food, fish chips, pizza, nuggets, etc. The adults' food was a lot better. Curry's lamb, chicken. Sunday dinner, lasagna, pasta dishes english brrakfast, pawns. Salads, breads Etc 95 per cent of it was English food. I would probably give the food 3 stars. Taking into account, they are cooking for over 300 people and there must be about 10 options each meal time

Yes, mate, it is the 1.6

Yes, you can remove the box totally and connect the two wires up as in the video

@@Adventure.with.Robbie sometimes the inmobilizer is hooked up with the switchboard. I hope this is not the case for the volkswagen t4? Must be since it worked for you ;)

@jacobtex4611 I'm unsure to be fair. I done this on mine about a year ago. Had no issues with it at all. When you say switch bourd. Do you mean the black box that the two wires are originally connected too?

i ment the main central comupter@@Adventure.with.Robbie

Go for it, mate. Absolutely worst case for you is the actual solenoid that has failed. ( common issue ) Which would mean the black box would have to be removed anyway to access that. Just be careful of the fuel pump screw when removing

@@Adventure.with.Robbie Okay Bud will give that a try , Will keep you posted , Ta

It could well be a faulty immobiliser. I think most T4s have had them removed. They can have an intermittent issue where it won't start and sometimes will. It wouldn't course a misfire, though. As for your OBD port, depending on which model you have from my understanding, not all obd Readers work on the T4s. You would need one for a T4 only. Or get a professional to scan it.

@@Adventure.with.Robbie Mine starts fine, no issues there so immo seems fine at first glance. I have VCDS which should work just fine. I have VW T4 1996 7D, so the newer face lift model. But I can't communicate to any of the modules which indicates there is something wrong with k-line. Probably a faulty module or circuit. I have already done some diagnostics and immo seems fine as I removed and bypassed it for testing purposes. I have also ruled out instrument cluster and ABS module. From here I still need to test ECU and wiring to it but I also noticed while looking through wiring diagrams that this black box on the VE pump is also connected to k-line. Considered I have issues with VE pump and engine wanting to cut out then I'm also going to check this out. I just searched to see if anyone has experienced similar problem and I just happened to find your video mentioning immo and shut off solenoid.

You're very welcome.

Thank you 😊

You are very welcome

Actually, from the Facebook group, where there are many staff and young people who lived there, most are positive. Of course, not everyone had the same experience, which is respected within the group. You would be more than welcome to join cotswold Community School. Lots of pics, including videos and tours. Of what the home looked like and how it looks now

@@Adventure.with.Robbie oh thanks man I’ll check out the group. Big chunk of my childhood was there so it’s nice to have those memories again.

It's a bonnet guard. To prevent stone chips

@@Adventure.with.Robbie thanks. Here in Portugal and Spain no one use such a protetion.

@@matterdotoo4726 in the UK they are very popular along with the big plastic sun visors. Mostly fitted to small and large vans.

Hopefully, I will have her painted once the weather improves

It's where I'm pointing in the video

Hi, it's just a standard 0.9mm metal. Yes, you will get plenty of seam sealer in places. Like old paint, it will just burn away and smoke a little. Of course, remove the worst of it.

Thank you 😊

Yes, that's the same place. Some of it is going to be knocked down. However, there are some listed buildings in the centre of the home that will be saved

Are there any buildings that are accessible without force of course

Thank you. I would say its bigger than the vw caddy for leg room if that's anything for you to reverence from. I'm only 5.7 and there was about two clicks left in the seat. I would however think it would be a bit cramped for driving being 6'2" Maybe worth going and taking one for a test drive and see what you think

I was there in the 90s. I'm not sure if you are already a member but we have a Facebook group called the cotswolds community. Where there is a lot of previous lads from the school and staff that worked there.

Yes both very common areas to go. My advice is once you spot rust get it sorted right away. This one was pretty obvious it had issues befor the roof rotted. First signs being the Gutters rotting. I have to say however the T25 seem to pass the test of time better than the more moden T4s or even the T5s thouth this is my opinion and may not be everyone else's experience

Absolutely I cut the whole front end out and welded a original front end back in. Keep at it. Hope to see some videos of your progress

@@Adventure.with.Robbie posted on my channel chap have a look 😊

I got them of amazon. The are flexible panals and only need to be stuck down. Make sure when buying that the connector is on top of the Pannal and not at the bottom or you won't be able to stick them down

Thank you. She is very much a working progress

Thank you 😊

Thank you. Hubertus, yes they take a lot of work and a awful lot of time. A labour of love for sure.

@@Adventure.with.Robbie Indeed there you are right.

I sure have mate, the whole van is having a overhaul. Body, paint. Interior engine the lot. I'm hoping to get her to a show and shine standard

@@Adventure.with.Robbie you will get there, mines a hospital job maybe on the road next year.the problem with these old vehicles everthing is worn out

@@markrocketmangrimstead absolutely. I've learnt with my T25. Thw more you dig the more you find unfortunately.
