    Behind the mulleted exterior lies the brains of a very talented young engineer. Its great to see intelligent younger people as technicians and engineers, of course this would not be a conversation anywhere but the UK. 👍🏻

    That’s the definition of ‘thrown together’ How can somebody stand back and be happy with that installation. Looking forward to you righting all those wrongs.

    I think you or the camera operator should invest in an LED torch, so we can see what you're pointing at.

    Scott it's a classic case of  not adhering to the 6 P's principal... Proper Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance.. looking forward to the solutions

    Classic example of "If it worked, it'd be great.".

    WOW!!  What a mess!!  Looks like there are people in the U.K. like I (half-jokingly) say about people in the U.S.......when a person loses their job at the factory, they're automatically a mechanic or carpenter or open a restaurant.  Love your videos!!

    The guys who did that conversion must have been saddle-sore by the time they finished. What a mess.<br>Great work mate! 🎉

    That black ABS odd fitting in coolant hose looks suspiciously like a fitting i used to hookup my sump pump in my basement water drainage system.<br> &nbsp;The shortest distance between two points wasn&apos;t the decision of choice when plumbing the cooling system. <br> &nbsp;I&apos;ve been in the HVAC business for years and anytime you can eliminate a fitting by all means do it!<br> &nbsp;Your short overview of problems and potential disasters is spot on.

    Recently found this channel and love the attention to small details in a large scope project. Like to do my own projects in a way that make a reliable outcome

    That&apos;s a rough one for sure, but it seems to be a relatively simple project to sort out. You&apos;ll have this Landie done pretty soon, I&apos;d say
