    GENERATOR

    Yes, I have done it before, though only when enough room to slide cover off. Just make sure when starter off, bendix gear still intact, as well as spring a metal washer.

    Took our first trip in our Winnebago .. AC questions..

    If pressures are low, compressor WILL NOT kick in, even a loose Schrader valve could be the culprit for the leak, but as said by others, let a pro look at it. If pro says compressor bad, ask how they determined that? They are expensive and no need in "Throwing parts at the problem", if not...

    Try tapping on primary and secondary gas valve at furnace. Sail switch working or would not cycle. Possible secondary valve not opening all the way. Fridge, have you tried on gas and electric?

    A couple of questions for you guys

    The upgrade to Onan may pay off in long run quite nicely. Generac is not making RV Generators any more, thus the parts that are available are quite expensive, this I know for sure. Of course there are some shops and warehouses that have an abundance of Generac parts, but they are QUITE proud of...
