I’m sure I’ve got the 904 but haven’t got round to connecting it all up yet.

Yes it is. I’ve got mine fitted. Got it from Chorley gas next day delivery.

I paid £32 for a bottle and gas.

Bottle is a little rusty though!

Hi Guys following on from the above post with your ' Beach Camper ' did you get the :

- Holder for Gas Cylinder
- Belt for the Holder

Went to fit mine last night but noticed as per the manual these items were not in the van page 52 in Manual FIG 60. Item 5 & 6 ? - I have e-mailed dealer but not heard back yet just wondered if anyone else has them ?

Thanks

Camping gaz 907 ??

Maths was off, it should cost £3.00. You will probably find that Campingaz is owned by a VW subsidiary. It’s actually much much cheaper to buy the little cartridges + £1 each than refill the Gas bottles, unless you are in Spain then it’s relatively cheap. 99% of our cooking is done outside so a...

Certainly possible, whether it is advisable is a separate matter.. I used cadaq QR connectors and regulators.
