Very useful tips ‘n tricks guys, thank you and some products I’ve not come across and may just be trying when I can find the time away from our #Drivecation... 🥱🤪 Keep on staying safe, cheers, Rog... 😉 👍🏻 🐍
I have tyre pressure tyre date and car tyre pressure ect all typed up on a sheet of paper in an a4 see through file this is kept in the glove box in the car at all times saves having to bend down each time to check even got the tyre size on in case needed when travelling and is handy to give the breakdown service on the phone so they can bring a new tyre if needed
I'm always amazed how you rattle off all that information without a script. I keep my leisure battery on a maintenance charger. That's a charger that goes into a "float" state of 13.2-5v. It can double the life of a battery. Sorry to nitpick, I'm sure you know this, but it's not clear in the video. When you check the torque on your wheel nuts, or anything else, back them off a quarter turn & retighten them to the correct torque. Oh & to save your torque wrench back them off with a different socket & bar. When you finish with the torque wrench take the pressure off the spring. It will keep it reading the correct torque a lot longer. I was brought up around H.G.V.s. Torque wrenches were incredibly expensive back then. It was a workshop tool, mechanics couldn't afford their own, so they were treated like they were made of glass.
Thanks Bernie..yes our torque wrench was a bit of an investment but it will last us years. Thank you for the tips on using it 😊👍I hope you are keeping well…Karina
Nice one karina and joules good sound advice there I've been told u can put pure a fin in your flush aswell do u know if that is ok or not as I don't put the pink in the flush as it Leaves fungus in the flush I put some in a spray bottle with some water and just spray it round the bowl after use does the same job Stay safe my friend .kev
Thanks for watching Kev...Im not sure about puriclean in the flush as it is granular and could effect the pump or leave a residue in the tank. 🤔 The only time I got the black bits was with cheap pink flush, I haven’t had it with Thetford pink or the 40Shot. A spray is a good idea, I have one of those too as a back up for when I run out of flush water. Take care 😊 Karina
