Camperjam

So, we made it to camperjam, excellent weekend in Weston Park near Telford. Good music and we got a nice little porch like awning for £35. The van's not so hot though. It used almost 5l of oil over the 300 mile trip, eeek.
I secured the yard next to mine to work on the van. This time I'm going to do the swap! I've a compression tester on it's way and I'm getting an engine crane. I'm going to test the spare engine I have and if it's any good I'll put it in. If not I'll take out the one that's in there and open it up for a DIY recon. Rings, bearing shells etc. I've had a look at the spare and the oil looks good. I took off the rocker cover and everything looks good there too. Only slight worry is the ends of 2 glow plugs were missing. If I'm lucky they burnt off due to bad injectors or if I'm unlucky they snapped and are in the combustion camber. If they are in the combustion chamber they need getting out, time to get a borescope.
Almost forgot, it made it to the New Forest last weekend and the New Forest Ponies gave their approval.
