I really like the Transit Connect, its a shame theyre all still so new as they're out of my budget! Company I used to work for leased hundreds of them, swore by them!

Post by: Easyclean Windows on February 05, 2007, 01:53:26 pm: No i wont miss the tranny i had a hired transporter while i was waiting for this one and still too much room.

When i started i had a Tucker Pole 700ltr tank all fitted in but due to the way microbore and varistream work i never used half a tank so i down sized and just fitted the pump etc and had a smaller tank in instead

How come you went down the diy route rather than tucker system. i see you previously had one, & use there logo,s. I,m thinking of having the 350l system in a berlingo.

Post by: Easyclean Windows on February 05, 2007, 03:14:47 pm: Gary i still use tucker poles and my tank is in thier storage so i bought the 2 man setup 4 years ago..but my tranny got wrote off and i bought a 400ltr tank but this has been more than enough if you set your pump and varistream with microbore you wont need anything bigger.

My big contracts are blocks of flats the biggest is 70 in one block and still only use about 300 ltrs so this tank i have now is more than enough.

Also i can get 20 £10 houses out of this 400ltr tank in a day instead of coming back with half a tank all the time.

Could I sugest you use a heavier duty ratchet strap to keep your tank secure?

I prefered the inside of your old van it looked a lot more professional, apart from that the van looks great

How fast do you drive....? and hopefully that's what the bulkhead upto the top of the head rest will stop and the bungee straps holding them down they cant move side tot side as the top pole carriers are stopping them

What's the payload on those connects then and are they good on fuel?
I was thinking of leasing one for the missus, so she can get out there and earn some wonga aswell!!
