@Rahimdad @skumar83 @Asif Hussain @NOOR OMAR @shadow79 Guys, please list your fuel tank capacity and regular on-road and off-road mileage you get, to decide whether one jerry can is enough or your car requires two jerry can. 125 km in a straight line, can easily translate to 200+ km in the desert, so we got to prepare accordingly. My Pajero has 60-liter tank that lasts for 350 - 450 km on-road OR 200 - 250 off-road (my best guess). I'll be carrying one 20L + 10L spare fuel.

I have found that some of the gunk people spray on their seats and dashboards to make them look "nice and shiny" contains volatiles that stick to interior glass surfaces when the stuff evaporates. No matter how many times you remove it, the the oily film will reappear the next time the car interior gets hot, so if you are using any type of interior spray, stop using it and see what happens. If this is what is causing the problem, it will go away by itself eventually, but in the meantime, try covering the dashboard with some impermeable material that will stop the volatile material from getting onto the inside of the windscreen. In one case I remember, my client had to replace the dashboard because the previous owner of the car had used so much dashboard spray over a long period that the entire foam structure had become saturated with the stuff.

Fill the tank to the top and if there’s oily stuff in it, you’ll see it floating on top. But as you said it’s inside the car, that won’t be the problem. Do you smoke in the car? Tar and nicotine sticks to glass and is very hard to remove but vinegar will shift it.

The best thing I’ve ever used to clean glass, and I’ve used a lot of expensive products, is white vinegar and newspaper. Spray the vinegar on and wipe it off with the newspaper. It doesn’t smell good but the smell clears after a few minutes. Don’t forget to either clean or replace the rubbers on the wipers or you’ll be back to square one first time you wipe. Its good to make sure there’s no oily residues in your windscreen washer tank too. Are you 100% sure it’s residue on the windscreen and not scratching? Scratches seem to be part of life here with all the sand in the air. If they aren’t deep, they can be polished out.

why not its can be done in today's time and age as all parts you can get easily and used is cheaper...there are many people who use such vehicles for recreational purpose like desert driving or racing...they just tow it to the destination and the drop the paddle to the metal....seriously after finishing we can name it carnity bum bum
