Hola Amigees!

We moved in to the van last week, made our way up to Madison, Wisconsin to spend time with family and since we've been parked we noticed there are some things we already need to repair.

With the 3.0l V6 sprinter, it's important to maintain the systems a little more than the 4cyl, and after inspecting a few parts on the van and running some diagnostics we discovered the DPF filter was a little too full of soot (ash buildup from the engine running). Rather than paying nearly $300 for a Liquimoly DPF cleaning wand, we spent $12 on some copper tube and a 1 gal hand pump pressure tank.

We've also had a suspension upgrade in the works for a few weeks and we both decided there was no better time than now to get it finished.

After getting everything sorted with the van, we street camped for a night, hit up costco for essentials like red bull and pomegranate juice and we set off north again. Any idea where we're heading?

Life is good.

We're Mariajosé and Chase. In 2018 we sold our house, moved into our self-converted school bus and took off traveling the United States. We sold our bus, bought a new-to-us Sprinter Van and we're doing it all over again. If you're new to our channel, subscribe & stick around. We're excited to have you here. If you enjoy our videos please let us know, give us a like and drop a comment down below. If our videos just aren't for you, we understand and hope you find what you're looking for somewhere else!
