@@FromRustToRoadtrip I most certainly did enjoy it; well up to your usual impeccable standard of production! I can completely understand how some of the driving terrified you. I think you're both really brave tackling a trip like this in those conditions, but you're getting something quite unique in the process. It would never have occurred to me to use a free standing woodburner, but it's an obvious thing to do really as you'd never drive with one lit. Do you get much condensation in the van with it, or do you get less than you would with no heat? I know I've said this before, but you deserve many, many more views. I love that hot Turkish style bread too!

The look on your face when all the bad overtaking was happening. lolz.

How to stop your diesel freezing get a water tub fill with coolant pop a copper pipe in to the bottom take to exhaust pipe wrap copper pipe around exhaust pipe and then take to fuel filter wrap round filter and then back to tube full of coolant this will take heat from the exhaust along the pipe and heat up the fuel in the filter

Another great one. Love the camera work on the cinematic sections and the banter on the vlogy bits is fun too. Honestly do not mean any offence but I think you could have a look at how you do the voiceovers a bit if I was gonna provide some unsolicited constructive criticism. Sometimes it just distracts from the majesty of the views. No offence intended still, a wonderful watch from start to finish and am enjoying these longer full length documentary style videos and can’t wait to see what comes next.

Great filming, as always. I have known engines that get addicted to Easy Start, had one Hudswell Clarke shunting loco that needed it every time, even when it was hot from several hours work! It is a known problem. I had a Landrover in -15degrees or so temp that was difficult to start, some hot water (NOT Boiling) poured over the fuel lines & pump did the trick. Have you bumped into @TrioMandili yet? 🙂

Thank you! Yeah we do hear that a lot about getting addicted to easy start, but we've had so many litres of the stuff poured through the system over the years and it seems fine, only ever wants it when it's below freezing. Definitely used the hot water method before too, it works! We were surprised the hot water bottle worked in this video and very grateful it did! Unfortunately not! We'd love to meet them, but on our previous video we did meet up with some amazing singers in both Pankisi and Tbilisi- if you haven't seen it yet it's well worth a watch 😀
