    The ari cooled campervans need their tappets regularly adjusted, one of the arseaches of owning them. I have had a few, and they're dangerous in that there's no protection for any of the passengers. Quite tulipe to drive too, in fact, I can't imagine why you'd want to own one, unless you bought it 10 years ago for nothing, and realise that there are fools out there willing to pay up to £20k for pristine one.

    £20k. Madness.

    And there's probably a whole family living in it and this is the only way to get any heating

    Sugar will certainly crystalise and fubar the engine, but with rice you get the added bonus of it swelling and splitting the fuel tank.

    So I'm told.

    Just wait until he's gone to bed and then pour a bag of rice through the filler cap.
    Nice
