Since I got the moho, i did a few small jobs on it - just really checking it out to see what was what, and what i could do easily enough.
Job 1. I noticed when I was cleaning it, that the water was not draining away from the front scuttle. It had been parked under trees at the previous owners, and i figured that the drain hole was blocked.
After some digging, i found the drain tube, and it turns out the tube was kinked - someone had obviously moved it at some stage, and not moved it back, with the result that the hose was blocked and not letting water drain.
I need to treat some surface rust but looks like i avoided the pain of serious rust issues there.
I refit it properly, and the water drained away quickly, so job done! I would suggest that people check this on the 244 ducato, as, if the drain does block, in heavy rain you could get water ingress into the cab via the air blower intake.
job 2. The front bumper looked terrible, with UV damage and various shades of light grey. Previous owner use autoglym vinyl treatment which brought the bumper back up, but it would always fade very quickly, and wash away in heavy rain. I ordered a heat gun on amazon for about 20 quid, and spent about 45 minutes going over the bumper with the heat gun. The heat magically restores the finish on the bumper, and after a quick viinyl treatment, it has come up a treat!

job 3.
the blower was week in the heating system, so after seeing the dust build up on the fan on another forum, i checked my own. As i thought, lots of dust!
yuck
Removed it, cleaned it, refit it, and hey presto, massive improvement in the quantity of air coming from the vents.
I also changed the gas rubber hose, as I didn't know how old it was, fit a carbon/smoke alarm, two fire extinguishers and a fire blanket, and a new single din head unit that holds the phone, and allows proper sat nav & phone functionality via an app - similar to android auto.

using co-pilot satnav on it is easy, and there is good sound, so happy days.
