Just back from the night away and sadly the heater choose not to work, it tried firing but Im guessing it was not getting enough fuel, disappointed after all the work but at least I know its working, just in need of a new pump.

OG many thanks for taking the time to post the links. Gasure Steve may well have a B2L pump for me if not Ill be using one of the links. Will update when I have more info :ok

Enjoyed reading this thread. Just in the process of trying to resurrect a heater I have purchased second hand. Nice to know I can reference this in times of need :D

OK the pump arrived (many thanks steve8090 :mrgreen: )

I had some time today so I have fitted it an the heater ran fine :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Went out for a drive, came home and still running well :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

So the next test will be a nights camping at Cliff House camp site, it has steps down to the beach and you can walk along the beach for a tasty meal at the Ship in Dunwich, hopefully we shall be toasty. I will pop another post up after we have time for this.

A BIG THANK YOU to all the people who helped & advised on this thread. On my first camper I took the eber off thinking it was kaput, I never even thought to try and repair it. So the moral of the story is don't sling your eber away and get on 80-90 fr some excellent help & advice. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Brilliant thread.

I've just bought what I think is a B2l (Petrol, 2500W) on Ebay for a tenner!

I have little doubt it needs a lot of work, the other case is rusty for starters and i am sure the internals will need rewiring and cleaning, btu this is a project rather than a necessity. We haven't had any heating in a van yet but it's always been on the 'someday' list.

That'll be a good one - they are only 2300W to start with! Is it turbo-charged? :rofl

No idea. Just going on the ID plate which clearly states 2500W

Must see a pic of that ID plate. :)

Here is the Eber in question. As can be seen the #plate clearly identifies it as 2500W unit, though like you I can't seem to find one anywhere? misprunt?

The ID number ending #901 above seems to identify it as a 79-80 model from a Mosaik/Joker according to the manual.

I'm not sure what all the parts are yet or if it's all there. It won't be going in a Westy and ideally it would be an underfloor fit.
