I like the Flying J's as most of them have an RV island.

This kinda reminds me of a commercial on TV.  "Does it say your covered on page seven of your policy?  No it says Blah blah blah blah" Good Luck!!  hopefully its not too costly.

Update!!  She is running good again.  We had her serviced before our trip, I'll talk with the mechanic when we get home. Turns out that it was a piece of the old filter stuck in the butterfly.  Expensive lesson as we had to call a mobile mechanic to find it.

Now if I only new where it was located

My 1996 F53 has started over revving.  It wants to run at 4000 rpm in neutral.  I checked the throttle cable for binding and it does have about an inch and a half of cable left above the pedal.  But the butterfly appears to be closed.

Thanks All, lever operates freely.  Dan I took your suggestion and disconnected the bottom.  Now we could get it to release.

Did all that, even triple checked.

This morning I tried to extend my awning and only one side would release and unroll.  The side with the release lever would work.  Is this something that is an easy fix? And if so how?  Or is it something I wait until I'm home to mess with?

I Never Dump until needed. I always leave the fridge doors ajar when not in use. I do cap my hoses and flush them before attaching. My fresh water hose is not kept in or near the dump tank compartment or valves.

Did you try Colaw?  sometimes they may not want to look unless you show up in person.

Thanks Tom!!  i'll give that a try. Dutch, If I can't find a used one I will give that a try.  I like the idea of filling with foam.  That should strengthen them up a bit.

"Are you using Z scale or larger?  We would like photos of your layout when it's done." Ned, Layouts are never done.

On my last trip I ran over an alligator (recap portion of semi- tire).  It flipped up and broke one of my wheel well molding trim pieces.  With a 1996 coach, i'm finding out that they no longer exist.  Any ideas for a replacement Item?

Where do you find the "White" scrubbies?  I've found green, blue, red but no white ones.

Thanks!!  i'll give it a try.
