Man, my world turned upside down when I saw the most positive man, Ryan, of all people, sad and defeated. So glad for you and me and all of us that you found your bearings and so much positivity again to make it on a new trip with just a few days of preparation. What an example of resilience and positivity. And you know; what you radiate, you receive. Goes to show.

​​​@@4x4ventures_southafrica allthough it made me sad with you, my compliments for laying bare your soul there. Important example for people who struggle not to keep it inside and for overlanders to see the struggles and not only the shiny parts. The highs get even higher thanks to the lows. Enjoy your trips to the fullest. Ps in july 23 was in Robins and on that same small road a.o past chingahobe dam (was it really detema in the film, and not chingahobe, if so boy it was dried out). Will be back in Hwange this year (and all of the zimparks).

Ryan, great video and content. I grew up in my teenager years traveling much of Southern Africa with my family, vehicle breakdown was stock standard on most of those trips...regardless of vehicle manufacturer. It is never a nice moment when it happens. Once it happened with us between Kang and Ghanzi, we where towed by a Namibian from Windhoek all the way to Gobabis. From there a flatbed to Swakopmund. My dad just kept the holiday going, stayed 3 weeks in Swakop, then drove back with a fixed vehicle... Love your work!

Thanks mate, and yes, it was a tough time and glad to be on the other side now. Shit man, that’s awesome and very kind of you to say. If I may; Keep creating, keep having fun, don’t worry about what others say, and most importantly have fun figuring it all out and learn constantly. Some chaps don’t have the patience, time or willingness to be better. Unfortunately, it’s easy to disappear in the repetition of what’s already been done, find your own voice and differences in your channel. You will do better than the rest if you learn from channels that appeal to you. KZfaq is not easy, it takes long. Many channels have failed not from lack of trying, but spark in what they create. Be inspired by who and what you like legend. We salute you, and thank you again.

Hey Ryan, man, my heart made a deafening THUMP after the first few minutes, when I heard you need a new motor. I am very glad that you have buddies in the caliber of Ed, these buddies are worth a lot! Hope you get sorted out soon, car wise and the other thing as well. Keep up the good work, but most of all look after yourself, get back into balance. Sending a big "man hug" and "strongs", all the best! 🛻

Good work 👍 Have witnessed this scenario over landing my way around Australia yes modern diesels are not tolerant to low grade/contaminated fuel maybe something to consider is to use a high quality filter funnel which pre filters while filling at the fuel pump also gives you a chance to visually check what’s going into the tank also if you haven’t already got a good aftermarket pre filter separator with warning light additionally to what the cars factory filters these things will buy you some preventative insurance so you get a long life from your new motor I in fact run a twenty yrld petrol car because I don’t trust modern diesel cars in super remote places but that’s not for everyone I know JA

Thanks for your input and sorry but also glad you could have solved your problem with your Ranger. I have a 2015 T6 3.2 Supercab auto. Only have 120K happy km's. I am a bit concerened about the bad fuel problems causing the problems you experienced. Do you have any advise regarding type of fuel filters and how often a person should actually replace them. Other thing is advise for an extended air intake or 'snorkel' as we call it here in SA. Thanks for all your other videos, really enjoy it. Pieter

The chaps at Ford did it under heir suggestion. EGR stands for exhaust gas regulator. Apparently it somewhat hinder performance in due respect of controlling emissions. Blanking this outlet is simple and is apparently good for the motor as it dispels heat and breathes better? Hope I’m right

My biggest concern moving on would be fuel, so vital to get quality fuel. Maybe consider building a trailer that will carry fuel . Expedition overland has a nice set-up for fuel.

Yuuuup, fuel quality is a major concern for us absolutely. We often joke about carrying fuel trailers. Crazy to think that that’s what it’s come to. We have installed extra fuel filters, but, it seems we have to find another way.

Only 147,000km? My D4D has 440,000 and other one 220,000km - neither skipped a beat - yet. SA Ford are totally useless - they would not help me when I had trouble with a very crooked Ford dealer - I vowed never to buy one again. After 1 million km with Ford - I switched. Glad you got sorted.
