Might be worthwhile dropping a line to narrowboatwill as he is pretty good with engines in general. I don't know if he is near you at the moment but its worth a try.

I think it would be worthwhile getting the engine bay cleaned out, sort out the engine cooling, and making sure that all of your filters are clean & seals are intact before any type of journey away from places where you can get food and supplies for the boat.

Nice, your video comes out, the day after my Bday.. But! Oh, no!! By your header, it seems some things may have gone a lil sideways for you. It sounds almost as if you had a baptism by fire, of sorts.. Lets hope you didnt fall in!! I kid :) I am really sorry to read you had (what seems like) a tougher start. Hopefully you are now away from the rougher parts, and got someone come & fix your engine & things are on the up and up again. Cant wait til your video! Keep on keeping on! You got this!

@@HistoricHospitality usually I dont celebrate. But this year, an old friend who plays in an Arizona band hit me up. Asking me if I am still in Berlin. They play on the 6th in Berlin. So, I am going out w a few friends & see em. But otherwise I just get to do more of the same.. getting my parents home ready to sell. So Bday or not my to-do list sadly doesn't finish itself. Hahaha. I did promise myself though, from my Bday on up, and since I've got only a few items left, I am going to start and explore Berlin, one day a week all summer and fall. Taking pics, going to Museums, see old buildings etc. After all this work, I am really looking forward to this. .. The great news is, that you got interviews set up! That means they are interested in you. Finding a great fit of course takes time. But since it's London, I am sure it won't take long for you to find a place you enjoy working at, and that pays well enough to make it worth your time to get out of bed for. I cross the fingers for you! Yah, I really am sorry to hear the boat thing has gone a bit sideways for you. It will get better. I have a sayin' on my wall, it hangs in every place I live at. It has gotten me through the toughest of times, reminding me of not only what is important, but that I am quite proud to be in the arena. (Except of course I change it to a woman lol) Its called: The man in the arena By Theodore Roosevelt It was part of a speech he gave Look it up under: The man in the arena Theodore Roosevelt It really is incredible. Maybe it will give you the same extra motivation, that it gives me, any time I want to quit and throw in the towel. :)

I'm sorry that are experiencing all of these mechanical mishaps. That poor engine has been sitting neglected for too long to expect to be traveling trouble free. When you first said you were moving I thought oh no I hope he gets a full service and give it a test run. I'm sure by now you have had the boat transported and serviced. Can I make a suggestion that you take a basic diesel mechanics course either on hand or on line. It would save you lots of money and time in the long run. Good luck.
