    Camping. Membership

    Looking for advice on camping membership, are they any good, do they let you stay free or for a small fee ($5 to $10) a night. Was looking at the coast to coast membership. Or is there any others that offer things like this?    Thanks for any help.

    Yes I have check oil levels, I even drained. It and refill. I think I mite have found out what it mite be. I took the long bolt holding the  flywheel out, I saw the key had bent over just enough to allow the wheel to move just a little bit, so I'm thinking its putting the timing off just enough...

That didn't fix...

    Yes Flight systems will help, I just talk with them today and after testing what he told me yesterday, the problem  was my regulator (I had replaced it earlier) but like he said it can be both regulator and control board that can go out. And both of mine went bad. After he helped test it he said...
