Thanks a lot ! That was best heater vid I've seen in the whole internet ! Keep it UP ADAM!

Thanks for this video very informative and well realised ! 🙏⚓️⛵️

This is probably one of the Best videos i have seen on this smoky problem. Makes total sense to me. Only problem, is after my same Smokey start up and pulling the chamber out, i find it very difficult to successfully clean the gause type mesh inside the chamber itself, which unfortunately is welded in place at time of manufacturing. So after cleaning all accessible parts and replacing the small filter mesh, my heater started right up with No smoke atall. My only solution is to keep a new burn chamber in stock at $27 canadian as a solid back up.

I use mine 5KW to heat a small workshop, with the exhaust going outside a few meters further through the wall and some glass wool to insulate the wall. I take the air intake inside so that I don't have to make another hole in the wall, fresh air is coming in through all small openings that is no problem I think. All worked fine at low power or medium power untill I reached the 100/150 total working hours range of the heater. From then it refused to start, fuel came well in through the tubes, but no more combustion, and no flame. It appeared that the heater was completely clogged with sooth and the unburned fuel sprayed in the chamber did the rest and flooded everything on the inside and outside with fuel. Luckely I placed a complete iron reservoir under it to prevent it from leaking all over the floor. Anybody any experience with how to run it without it getting clogged after approx 100hrs ? What should I do / not do / to prevent it from getting clogged so soon ???? I installed a new one and had the exact same result. Burning was nice and clean visible on the outside

These things are so cheap to buy that there’s nothing wrong with having a brand new or a working unit as a back up this way you’re never down you pull the old one out you put the new one in and you fix the old one and repeat that’s the best way to do it otherwise you may freeze your ass off for days waiting for parts from Amazon

thanks for video. finally I found how to fix it.

165,000 views and a paltry 743 subs??? WTF is wrong with people? This is a very well produced video with accurate and valuable information-it costs literally nothing but 10 seconds to like/subscribe. DO IT!

White smoke equals moisture , turn the exhaust pipe downwards instead of upwards they do produce moisture that leaks out of the muffler.

Really well done!

This video is solid. Very helpful graphics. Notably you revealed one problem that almost neve gets discussed, and that is the depth of the atomizing screen. As mentioned, the screen must be below the air hole. My heater showed an even more subtle symptom. It would start fine when the ambient temp was 70F or above. At temps below 40, it would struggle to light, then extinguish as soon as the heater tried to ramp up. After using my heater heavily for 4 years plus, I have decided that I really should disassemble it every summer for a cleaning and inspection. Nearly every problem I have now is due to neglect. I subscribed and liked just based on the quality of this video.

I just got mine and it won’t start. It keeps blowing up the fuses. Original came with a 25A fuse. I’ve tried 3x 20A, 3x 25A, and 3x 30A fuses they all just sparked and the unit never started from day one. Do you know what’s the issue?

Enlarging the ignition air hole to 1/8 inch eliminated startup smoke once and for all.

Great video! Thanks for putting this out there!

Never ever mount it outside. That style is better mounted high and have the exhaust always going down ..pass through the floor and out. Have a fan blow across the exhaust and recover more heat. Fuel tank should also be inside (diesel only) run it too hot and open a window to keep the air dry (payment is more fuel burned) if using the unneeded muffler inside, plug the weep hole. And more....

Great Video thanks for your time in making such a informative video!

❤ your video 👍 When you buy a new ignition mesh, get one that comes with an insertion tool. It enables replacement to the correct depth without needing to remove any more than the outer cover and the glow plug. It’s so easy to do that I do mine every few months which negates any significant carbon build up in the ignition port. Takes about 2 minutes. I also have a bit of stiff wire with a bend on the end that fits in the fuel supply hole, a quick poke keeps that clear too. Ask me how I know to do this🙄😂

Great video very helpful cheers.

Great video!

Excellent 🇬🇧

That was awesome, and cleared up many questions that I've had,I don't own one yet but I am considering buying one! What brand is best? Are Chinese diesel heaters good ? Also my vehicle runs on petroleum/gasoline is that better or worse than diesel? Thx EDGE

This is the best video I've seen, thank you, carbon foulded an all in one being used as a test in an ice fishing tent to dry clothing during a large event in the rain... Back to running full power to burn out the rest if the carbon

Brilliant just brilliant, very clever guy 🙏

Thanks! This also worked for mine (I was doing all the same things wrong too). But you forgot to mention that EVERYTHING will be black with soot after you complete this cleaning job. Your clothes, your gloves / hands, your tools, your work space. Do this in clothes you no longer want. Over a tarp. With a white garbage bag (so you can see the soot). And have lot of shop rags handy. Don't touch your mom's couch after.

Best one, thanks

Excellent video. Thanks forvthe help. 👍

Thanks pal. This is indeed the best resource I've found on the internet. I tried to buy you a coffee but your paypal says "This organization can't accept donations right now."

Just wondering how you generated the animations?

i have a adjustable power supply. i increased the voltage to just under 14 volts. all problems went away. glow plug is hotter, burns cleaner. better miles per gallon.

Great imfomative video. Thank you 👍

Probably the best "repair" video that I have found regarding these heaters. Mine is blowing white smoke and then stops heating. Problem. It is really hard to get to to take apart!! Thank you.

Thanks, very good, saved me a lot of head scratching,I reckon you must have been the inspiration for the two guys on the phone giving advice on the fosters ads.

Really helpful. Best video I found on diesel heaters and how they work. Thanks!

Fantastic video mate. Youve helped alot of folks with this. RUclips at its best.

Thanks man!

Our heater is pumping fumes into the cabin at start up, any suggestions would be great fully received.

Most were human error. I like watching the old diesel engineer from Australia. He has about 20 videos on how to install and how to troubleshoot diesel heaters.

Thanks! I have searched everywhere. You keeping it simple is the key. Ran out of fuel and pump failure later. Cleaned it out back running. Thanks again.

Hi, I really enjoyed watching your video but I do have a question. On the heaters I have, after about 90 seconds the fuel pump starts and if monitoring from an app, the combustion temperature will rise. After about 4 minutes the glowplug will turn off. I have one heater that on many occasions the glow plug icon comes on and the glow plug draws power however the fuel pump never starts. On every occasion I have just powered off the unit, then back on and it has started correctly. My question is what tells the fuel pump to start? If it were a timer, I'm sure it would always start. If it is temperature, where does the heat come from apart from the heat of the glowplug? On a new heater or a serviced one, there will be no residual fuel in the combustion chamber and only the powered up glowplug, so what starts the combustion process? As I stated earlier if it were a timer, I'm sure it would always be a consistent start. The other strange thing is there is no error codes. It just sits there with the glow plug powered up for as long as I leave it. Other types of heater would use a pilot light that would operate a thermocouple and that is what starts the main gas valve (In the case of a boiler), but what starts the fuel pump on these heaters? Your animation shows the diesel going onto the hot mesh causes combustion, but if the pump is not running, where does the diesel come from? Thanks.

excellent video, bromigo

You seriously saved my butt. Getting ready to camp in the cold and could not for the life of me get my heater to work.

Thank you Adam for information , my Anbull heater basically same as yours is doing same thing on restart, after warmer temperatures outside warmup my garage So ill take mine apart check my glow plug clean it like you did and reassemble it, order parts gets irritating on 8kw heater getting right stuff is problem

Thank you, this is the best video, and the first where you are actually knowing what you are talking about and showing how to solve problems. Awesome !

If you install a diesel heater to draw in outside air instead of recirculating the air, you’re running the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. This is because the combustion exhaust can get drawn into the cabin air suction duct.

I have six of these heaters. And you nailed this problem and solutions. Good explanations!

Very helpful! Mine smokes like a fog machine on start up. I thought after a few tries it needed priming. After watching your video I realized it's not getting air. Thanks for cleaning that up! Was left freezing over night last night getting made at my diesel fog machine

Hey thanks for your video. It got down to 10 degrees and my heater started blowing white heavy smoke. I watched your video and found out that my combination air intake was outstanding drawing ice cold air. I moved the pipe inlet to get inside air and the smoking completely stopped. Thanks for the great advice. I’m going to connect a 4” pipe to my heater air inlet pipe and connect it to the inside of my house. I think that will help if I supply preheated air instead of the 10 degree outside air. I haven’t seen anyone recommend that. Thanks again.

Sir, this is what every vid should look and be like. Nice work!

Interesting video, surprised you put it out side where it can get wet if traveling.

Cheech and Chong burn mode. This genuinely is hilarious. Do you really have your exhaust pointing up? - Guess what? rain can go in also. Might as well put a funnel on it. 😂😂 Why oh why lol? Terrible idea. The boiling water in the exhaust - tragic. If you didn't use common sense then at least use the instructions. - Exhausts must point or bend downwards with the total bends not exceeding 270° - at least drill a drain hole in exhaust. And btw ALL exhausts condense. So running downward is best for heater health.

This is the best explanation out there I’m a put it to work I just started getting a lot of white smoke found that my diesel pump was hanging around not bolted up to where it should it’s on a semi by the way I am going to take it apart clean it and shall share the results and if good you my friend deserve a brewsky thanks
