How to fix a truck

Usually you will only need 13, 17 and 19 mm spanners, a star and flat headed screw driver and most important gaffa tape and cable ties (Americans like to call it duct tape or zip ties which leads on my side to non understandings in stressful situations, which means American freaking out… but this just by the way…;)
Back to the topic. So let´s say, your fuel system is playing up, engine is cutting off every time you want to crank the engine. Just put the fuel pipe into the filling opening of your tank, blow and suck the diesel to be sure the pipe is free of any dirt and duct tape the pipe to the tank, close the rest of the opening with tape as well (we don´t want any diesel spilling out on bumpy roads…)
Cable ties hold all these pipes in place. But also you can secure your new created switch for the invertor (which is absolutely necessary as the invertor was sucking too much energy over night) so that it is now convenient to switch on and off…
If your sound system is playing up and starting to smoke, just tap the smoking, hot, almost exploding part of the amplifier gently with the other end of your screw driver… it will work again…
We still have no solution for our broken drivers window…. We have run out of duct tape!!! But at least we are not leaking clutch fluid anymore…due to my brilliant diagnosing skills we changed the slave cylinder and hey, no more clutch fluid topping up needed!

PS: You ask yourself why you need spanners? Well, to change the slave cylinder and to bleed the fuel system million times to get rid of all the air you may need them…
