Where are you going in Canada?

Our lad lives on Vancouver Island so we default to Victoria, then in-laws in Kelowna. It's all a scouting operation for The Great Escape....

Just passed through YVR this morning on our way to Cuba. Kelowna on the flight schedule.

I'm the same, best thing Grippatank has done for me when fitting the system. Give Oliver a call at Grippatank but he is very busy so may need to wait a month or two.


Grippatank cut into the return fuel lines on my van and they had to be replaced they couldn’t or wouldn’t  fit a standpipe into the tank never did get a reason why , I got the standpipe fitted by a local Wabasto specialist, I think dazmond had similar with them they cut into a fuel line and either the heater or the van wouldn’t start ?

When my van was off the road for about six weeks I kept my important jobs going by using my wife's car - a little Suzuki Sx4 hatch  in which I put 4 x 25L barrels and an old shurflo backpack (18L) in the boot (so 118L total). I could have put down the rear seats and carried four more if I had to, but didn't.

The backpack was bungee strapped to a little folding sack truck. Would never use a backpack without a sack truck.

Put the backpack on the floor and filled from the 25L barrels.

Kept me going.

This is the kind of initial setup I was thinking of. 👍.
He's not in a position yet to go 'all in'.

It's rather slower than a van mounted tank but it can get you started and you know that if you find you have to increasingly go back for fill-ups then you are doing well and know you need a van.

Being really organised is necessary. Fill up your barrels the night before, charge your battery and have a spare - that sort of thing.
