  1. Ok, not my van, i saw it in the resto section and thought id use it to ID the parts im talking about.

    basically at the end of the big heat pipe that runs along the van there(yellow in the picture) is a big fat pipe (about 4ish inch diameter) and a thinner one next to it, maybe 3/4 the size. marked blue on the picture.

    basically mine have crumbled to bits. anyone know what they are called and where to get them?
    ive tried heater tubes and heater pipes but nothing...

    anyone know?

  3. no i havent got either, they both crumbled to bits as soon as i poked them.
    i think ive made a mistake on the diagram. i think they may be at the front of the bus,

    Yes they are mate - Ive popped you a link for the main tube but I dont think you can get the manifoldy bit it connects to...unless someone has one or knows who sells one
     
  5. you can get 4" dia ali flex or solid spiral tube and what they call a y tee piece from an h n v ducting supplier then get cones to cone down etc, will be much cheaper than specialist stuff. Have you got any mates who are ducters?

    good thinking batman - luckily Gusbus' was okay so a repaint saved a struggle!

    if you would, that will help us more! None of my vans have the manifold you talk about, they just have the y piece itself!

    You could be missing one of these at the cab end, plus small flexi to rear facing cargo area heater box and large flexi to bottom of totem.

  10. OK, it's called a 'grungle' and that swivelly thing that goes through it at right angles is a 'grungle pin'
