I much prefer your Thermostat control over my planair unit .
Does the espar fan ever turn off when not calling for heat .

2 things I would do differently on your install is lower your fuel pump so it's below fuel level fuel in the tank . I think that the fuel in the pick up line will drain /siphon the fuel back out of the line .
And I would prefer to have the exhaust not dump under the van . I have the side steps on my van and I was able to mount the exhaust under them , so the exhaust is about 4 inches past the side of the van

I think the fan does shut off, but I'm not sure yet.
As for the pump's location, once I bleed all the air out of the linea it hasn't had an issue since. With regards to the reverse flow, nothing, the lines are full of fuel all the time. And there didn't seem to be many other places for it while keeping the fuel lines short... and out of harms way.

I truly appreciate your comments, those were some of my concerns when putting this together.

Almost wish I had a reason to stop by... I'm currently less than an hour from BTS.
But glad I don't lol

Okay I just found a huge benefit of the truck Lite LED headlights. For those inconsiderate bastards who leave their high beams on during oncoming traffic they quickly realize to shut them off when I flash them with mine.

Okay everybody I could use some help I'm getting ready to install the cruise control steering wheel and related parts. One piece has me stumped, the brake safety switch. I understand how it mounts and how it works but it has the two bare wires: red and green. Where do those attach to?

Under the hood. Driver's side inner fender. It's clipped to the fender and has a 2 wire factory plug. I cut the plug off and crimped it to the brake switch. I can take a pic if you need it.

The opaque clip is where the two wires were. I can take the degas tank loose if you need to see the wires.
