Welcome back Stu

Had a look through your thread Stu , serious work you have done there !
Could I get some information on the orange ball fire suppression kit please
Cheers Graeme

 

[StuF]

Graeme - good to hear from you buddy. Yep had an emotional year last year with the bus and it's issues!
Seems to be sorted now and running sweet.
My little red ball is flame activated fire extinguisher - first saw them over in Iraq where standard fire extinguishers blow their seals due to the very hot temps they are exposed to. Works well in the engine bay environment and I have had 1000's of miles with it fitted without incident.

If the ball is exposed to flame it basicallly explodes covering the area in flame retardant powder. Won't be very good for the engine but will put the fire out!

They are being sold on Amazon now

Cost effective solution for the worst case issue.

Hope to catch up with you in a field soon
Stu

Just bought one, easier than fitting a Firetec and It looks cool too, thanks for the public service announcement Stu!

Cheers fellas - he isnt a pretty bus but he wears his OG Paint well I think atleast!
Leaving for the campsite in less than an hour - weather is glorious and sunny!
Catch up with you peeps at Stanford

 

[StuF]

Well had an excellent trip down to Stanford Hall and a nice weekend camping.
Caught up with some old faces and met some new peeps too which was great.
Murphy ran well with no issues although a remote brake servo upgrade is on the cards in the near future.
Some pics of our exploits!

Dinner of champions the night before we set off!

Our chosen campsite for peeps planning on making the trip next year and looking for somewhere to stay - great facilities with showers and clean toilets. Very child friendly and quiet in the evenings.

Booking in at the campsite

All set up ready for a beer or two!

Sunday morning arrived and some of the less hardy (non campers) arrived to convoy down to the show - lovely squareback Adam has

Didnt take tons of pics at the show - was taking in the atmosphere and steak sandwiches!

One of my favourite splitties that was at the show!

Retro cool

Think this speedster rep is up for £29k!

Chunky Baja!

Had a great time apart from the torrential downpour on Monday morning just as we were packing up!
We are all packed again ready to do it again this Friday for EarlyBay Campout!

See you peeps there!
