    Ford V10 A/C shuts off under load - is that a vacuum leak?

    On my F53 it was caused by a dried out vacuum line that split.  New line and problem solved.

    Hood Hydraulic Lifts for 2008 Voyage 33H

    So far I have been able to find a comparable match.  It is either to long, short or not enough lifting power.  So if anyone knows of a workable substitute part I am all ears.

    Hood Hydraulic Lifts for 2008 Voyage 33H

    My 2008 Voyage's Hood Hydraulic Lifts are failing.  Can anyone tell me what the replacement part is?  The part number 142569-30-000 on the lift does matching anything.  Is there a cross reference chart or something so I can get a replacement?

    Wet under flooring

    I can attest to this.  I had a leak around my windshield and tried all sorts of windshield leak repairs and nothing.  Dealer couldn't figure it out after $500 in attempts.  Had the rig into a shop that friend recommended for another issue and I asked if he could see what he thought about the...

    Need advice moving from trailer to motorhome

    If you stay with Gas the light weight toad is going to be the thing.  You want to stay below 4K lbs even if it is rated is 5K, just want a buffer.  An old VW bus or a Thing would work.  Things are hard to find and when you do find one it is rather trash or top dollar. I have tried.  Now there...

    Ford V10 Question

    Just as a not.  I have not seen it mentioned but the cruise control will disconnect on long up hill climbs when she can't maintain speed.  I go off CC  when I get on long hills and just keep my foot in it.

    Wet under flooring

    Are the walls wet in the area of the wet floor?  Look for a water trail.  It could be coming down from the roof along a seem or something.  I take it the rig is parked and not going down the road.

    1991 Toyota Toye

    What it is is it can't handle the weight of the FW tank being full.  Now what moron designed that and thought it was a good idea??????

    Ford V10 Question

    You did not mention what year this is and it is not in your signature so this may or may not apply. That engine and trany will not let you over rev and the V10 can hit some crazy RPMs that in the old days would be detrimental.  The V10 can take it for long hauls up steep grades.  Tow/Haul mode...

    How to control on long long downhill road

    All good advise here.  The speed limit is just that, max safe speed.  Slow down and hold speed 10 to 20 percent below, more if the toad is close to max tow weight.  What we do on really mountainous conditions with many steep up and down grades we unhook the Jeep and the wife will drive it...

    Need advice moving from trailer to motorhome

    Another thing is you need to look at what the A Or C class is rated to tow and the GVWR and GCWR.  Many gas if not all powered motorhomes are only rated to tow 5,000 lbs or less.  This will dictate the towed vehicle you can have.  Even some diesels will only be rated to 5,000 lbs were as others...
