Yep no jtd on our 2001 Hymer, it’s all mechanical idtd, so no chance of any mapping. The only way for improvement is different injector spray patterns I believe.
Yours is looking better all the time.

Our first van was a 2002 Hymer B544 and that had the 2.8jtd engine which we had a plug in tuning box fitted to give us a bit more uphill speed.

Caught up since yesterday you two have been very busy. Doc is looking well cared for and clean. I hope and am sure all goes well tomorrow you need to find some long hills to give it a run.

Catch up again tomorrow.

Solar seems to do well. I will be very surprised if I use more than 30/40 amps in a day so will see how things are once all connected and up and running

So yours isn't the jtd?

Nor was our old Hymer Tam.

The older one is indirect and that can't be chipped or remapped etc so probably doesn't have one.

Ours did.

I don't see the need to carry extra stuff to use on electric etc when I manage fine in gas. For all the gas I use for kettle and to cook etc

Why folk carry 2 kettles etc is beyond me.

Don't know why it would jock unless it had the jtd engine .

That's why the old idtdi can't be remapped etc . No ecu to map

I've cut down to one, just an electric one now.

It was the mechanically injected 2.8TDi, and as per the links provided above, there was definitely an ECU of some sort under the passenger's seat, controlling other aspects of the engine management, (immobiliser key codes perhaps).
I was well aware that only pump adjustments/calibration would enhance engine performance, so I had to make do with what I had. She was great on the flat, but needed a gear or two down the box on the inclines.

Cheers,

Jock.

Hey what about me with the flat cap and whippet

That is so old hat and last century ... nowadays it's a Trilby and chihuahua!

We always carried some electric kit - kettle, toaster, hot plate, heater - which were put to good use when we had a gas leak in 2005 which meant we couldn't use the hob at all so had to stay on campsites for a week to run the fridge etc!

Now though we have reduced the kit so we only carry a small travel kettle and a single hotplate simply as a back-up in case of issues with the gas again ... we also have a single gas burner and a BBQ/grill in a suitcase, both of which run off the aerosol type gas canisters.
