This is an absolute pro-tip, thanks for posting! My diesel tank isn't huge and I have some space under the floor so I was going to get a larger one although it'd be amazing to have a second tank with a polisher in the middle so I can pump from one tank to another to clean the fuel! I'll give Paul a call and pass on his details to my neighbours. Thanks! 🙏🏻
Hi Beth, the big take from the experience was that the process of cleaning a tank is so much easier if the tank has an access hatch or man hole. In my case, having just the filler cap as access reduces the effectiveness of the job. If you do plan to get a new tank make sure there’s a nice big access hatch. 😀
@@canicebannon That's a great tip too! 🙏🏻
Love to see you back and take it easy
Thank you and I might take it easy!😂
Good to see you back! I hope all is well. Looking forward to seeing what you’ve done to Linda.
Welding and painting for Linda. Vid this week.
Sorry you had a dirty fuel tank
But very good to see you my friend
Was beginning to get worried about you
Hi Richard! Yeah, sorry about the absence…
The fuel was a building problem I suspected, but hadn’t appreciated the how bad it was.
Hi Canice Glad your back, and a very interesting vlog ,Thank You
You’re welcome Ramsey! Glad to be back. More on the way!
Have to run and be the safety official at a Top Gun event so I cant watch the video until I get back... New Video!! woo hoo!!! 83 hits already to it. Nice! Brb.
Go Maverick!😂😂😂
Great to have you back Canice & what a super interesting process that was. Didn’t even know that was a thing. So, now you have F1 spec diesel will you be water skiing behind Jorja🤭😏
Hi Gary. As you’ll see in the next video, there is a race track across from the boat where Lewis Hamilton learn to go cart! My engine runs a lot smoother though!
About time you made an appearance mr canice ! Lol nice to see you back !
Yes! Sorry about that.
@@canicebannon 😉
Great to see you back on the Tube, Really interesting video and I learned something new around red diesel too, I had thought this was only for agricultural use and was about to alert the athorities! Looking forward to seeing how you are getting on with Linda.
Only in the the UK I think…. I know on the continent it is not allowed. Gets complicated when a boat from the uk gets inspected by the French authorities and sees red diesel in the tank. 😂😂😂
I've missed these sunday vids, glad to see you back Canice.
Great video! Weirdly the same day you posted this a mechanic told me I've got more water than diesel in my fuel tank. Least I know who to call
Serendipity! Love it.
Your instructive vlogs are really interesting. I'd love to see more of them. Rock on Canice ! 😁
It’s rare that I can get in a professional. Took the opportunity when I could!
Hi Canice, great to see you back, where you been ?we are just a couple of oldies who love your videos, but what have you done to sea captain ? Fess up, you have sent him to Davey jones' locker have'nt you !!! and what about stilson? Is he having a well earned break, or have you dumped him over board, seriously tho, we have loved every moment of your journey with Linda, take care barb n Steve 👍👍
Hi Barb and Steve! Thanks for the comment and sorry about the delay in getting back to you. I had a little break but as you already know back at it!
Boat boy happy to see you safe. I have this gentleman do this on other RUclipsr channels but yours has been the best question asked an given best explanation. Please don’t so long next time to post. I know you have nothing better to do 😁
Hi Bill! Sorry about the delay with the videos. A temporary glitch. I am a huge nerd and found the process fascinating! I’m glad Paul is getting about, he was great! I hope it sends some business his way.
Yaaay ya back 👍🏻
This was enlightenment at it's finest.
It’s rare for me to have a professional at hand. Couldn’t miss the opportunity to make a useful video!😂😂
Thank you Canice, I immediately bought some additive. Great work as ever and welcome back.
I never thought additives were essential until I saw the mess coming out of the tank. 😂
That is. A fantastic informative video
Thank you David!
Really interesting video. Thanks Canice. Good to meet you yesterday. I hope you've recovered from your snow blindness. Best wishes, Bill.
Hi Bill! Good to see you. You have the advantage of getter by sneak previews!
Welcome back Canice. Like other commenters I was getting a little concerned.
Tiller Queen mentioned The Netherlands and I wondered if you’d run away 😳.
Very informative vlog. Ta. Will take a look at those water filters and see if I can afford one for fuel polishing.
Slán.
Mark. M V Sarah.
Sorry about that! I wouldn’t mind running away to the Netherlands! 😂 This Vlog is an attempt at being genuinely helpful with expert advice! Usual nonsense next week!😀
Great to see a new vlog update Canice! 👍
Thank you! More on the way.
Welcome back,missed you.
Welcome back Canice! Been hangin' for more bargin'!
Next week we’re cruising and welding!
Glad to see a vlog from you Canice! Was concerned for you!
Sorry! I had technical issues…. 🙄
Welcome back! Really interesting video.
Hi Alister! Good to be back.
Fascinating, that’s quite a process and a smelly one I’d wager…I’m not mad keen on the smell of diesel any more as one of my teenage jobs was working on a refuelling barge for trawlers. That really wasn’t a very high price to pay for a good hot shower and some winter heat 👍
It was definitely worth it, but it took two weeks for the smell of diesel to leave my bedroom. It turns out I was dragging it in on my feet. I serviced the engine afterwards. 😩😂😂
@@canicebannon …it’s certainly has a persistent whiff 👃🏻 👍
Great to see you again.
Thank you!
Sorry about the fuel tank but dang, was sure worried about you. I feel like a kid at Christmas!!!!! CANICE IS BACK!!!!!!!!!
Don’t worry Robin I’m back and usual nonsense will resume!😂
@@canicebannon 🤸🤸🤸
Poor Jorja. Glad she's feeling better. We can all do with a de-mucking now and then.
Jorja got a colonic! 😂
@@canicebannon A high colonic! Okay...that's the end of it, I promise.
Wow... I had seen this before but not in this much detail and depth!! Seriously damaging particulate matter. Ouch! Glad you clarified that it was just COLD showers you were taking not NO showers.. heh! Worth it to use the green stuff every fill up I would think. Nice return to the videos. Great to see your face! ":O) Thanks Canice!
It was a eye opener. One thing he said, off camera, was about a boat from 1930’s whose diesel tank had rotted out from the inside because of the water in the bottom of it! I’m back and usual style returns….
@@canicebannon That's not good. Internal rot and boats. Not good. Good that you caught it. Absence makes the heart wonder if you got abducted by canal aliens... hahaha.... Well good. Everyone needs a rest from editing and video prep and b roll and ... At least no more cold showers.
Welcome back !!!!
It’s good to be back.
Good vid. Long overdue
Viewer #2. Guess I have to try harder or something.
I was wondering what might have happened. You probably had enough on your hands with the heat wave, and now this.
You don't suppose the Captain......no, he wouldn't do a thing like that would he? Glad to see you got a solution to your fuel problems, and good to see you back again.
Hi Peter! It got very busy and I was a bit overwhelmed. Anyway, I’m back and videos of welding and painting and cruising and nature and fire, coming soon!
Great Video thank you
No, thank you! 😀 I’m catching up on the comments section!😂
No, thank you! 😀 I’m catching up on the comments section!😂
Have your welding skills getting better.? More sanding will be needed...best to Linda
The big problem I have is that I’m welding steel from 1910, 1975 and the present together. This is challenging. Give me two bits on modern steel to weld and there’s no problems.
Want to come to Australia 🇦🇺 Paul 👌
Who doesn’t!😂
fascinating
Yes, it is interesting.
Really interesting, i thought i would be a lot more expensive.
So did I!
So they don't seal the tank? Hmmm seems with the thermal cycle you see in England you would want as much corrosion resistance as possible....
Every diesel tank in a narrowboat is made of steel. But now plastic tanks are becoming more popular. I was surprised to see bits of rust coming out of the machine. It hadn’t occurred to me that you could rust out a tank.
This reminds me of when we got the main chimney swept in the old house I grew up in just before we sold it. The firm had a machine like a giant Henry vacuum cleaner, about the size of a fuel barrel, we filled it up with soot. About 100 year's worth. Oops. We had been burning wood for a good few years but originally it would gave been coal too. If only mankind had never discovered fossil fuels.
The price of fossil fuels will move people away from it in the end. Solar is way cheaper!
CANICE!
Michael!
Hi Canice No reply needed OK
That was pretty cheap..
Yes! For a call-out and fixing the problem so comprehensively. Well worth it!
However, it won’t work for everyone, as he needs access to a power source or powerful generator…..
I had sent out an 🆘 🛟 for you! You have been sorely missed Canice , welcome back. Sorry Jorja had the dreaded Diesel Bug , but glad you had Paul do such a good job. I hope you have been ok and maybe have been off doing some acting. But….now get back to working on Linda, please ☺️
Take care. 🙏😊🤗 Kathy
There is some acting coming down the pipeline. I’ve been having technical difficulties, which are resolved and some time constraints… hopefully I’ll manage it a bit better going forward.
@@canicebannon Just know that you were missed. ❤️
