This is turning into a saga. All I was able to accomplish today was fixing my current ride and piling the new parts into the sprinter. Took a look at the progress. Lots of cheese, and it appears that they're adapting a Ram Van bumper because it was there. Maybe it'll take the forklift abuse...

That was my breaking point. Switched to natural gas at 1.20 a gallon it's currently 0.90 a "gasoline gallon equivalent"

Thanks Turtle, nuff said :) that explains everything I need, in one place; I have a manual switch for bank, this time I might include a fuse or 2 :D Nice setup you have btw, you've got some serious time and effort in. 90 amp alternator was just ridiculous on their part IMO, especially for what...

IMPORTANT: NOT USING AN INVERTER GENERATOR CAUSES NASTY NOISES FROM YOUR A/C AND MAY CAUSE DAMAGE. If off brand generators will be mentioned, this needs to be said. (Do we need to add put it outside the van while running? :D) The WEN looks interesting at 459, wonder if it will last more than 3...

Thanks - I was skeptical until I saw the price...its not worth the time/learning curve/special tools bought to save on the labor portion of 2200...that's cheap!

MB genuine conductor plate, 260...Febi air filter by Bilstein 20...connector with o rings 22 (dealer) going to tear it apart and find out if I bought a deal, or a sad old sprinter with a blown up tranny Told it will look like the day I brought it home minus the rust, they're stepping up and...

Back on topic for me, I'm going to bed...

I've tested Turtle's solution summers over pavement in Ohio, and think it's better...quieter, cheap, and no fumes. Side mounted fan blowing across my body paired with 2 walmart deep cycles, charged with a simple red key cutoff switch to the front battery. Never drained the batteries, lasted at...
