This episode I install the Classic 5kw Chinese Diesel heater British self builder love and I can see why! its Brilliant. I plumb the diesel heater directly into the Ford Transit's fuel tank using a 65mm Turret mount due to my floor thickness and Replacing the factory wires with 6 mm wires. Towards the end of the video I do a power consumption test looking at its start-up and shutdown sequences and the amps used. I can not keep my self build campervan warm in the winter.

EDIT*
It seems the forgot the footage of running the cable/plug for the fuel pump and has been missed out of the video. The original heater mount has a slot to run the wire thought base of the mount with all the other parts ( fuel line, exhaust, air intake ) the turret mount didn’t have this slot so I added it with a drill and a jigsaw
