    460 Ford Winnebego Fuel Pump & Carb Replaced - backfires going up Grade

    Today's mechanics really know very little about the old systems just like yesterdays mechanics know little or nothing about the new vehicles. Yesterday you needed experience Today you need training and test equipment. Your description is quite vague. In an 85 Winni is the fuel pump in the...

    460 Ford Winnebego Fuel Pump & Carb Replaced - backfires going up Grade

    First off what are you calling a backfire? Is it at the exhaust or through the Carburetor? Backfire out the exhaust is normally from a RICH fuel mixture. If it is backfiring through the Carburetor ( I assume it is a Carburetor engine) it is probably too LEAN. If it ran good before you did the...

    warm fridge

    Gary is right ! Don't do a thing. Get a new fridge. That is exactly what a fellow in the trailer park said when he saw us drinking beer and rocking the fridge, but I think Gary has given the best answer very technical like the repairs on Apollo 13. Techies Techies there every where the sky is...

    warm fridge

    To start with I am no expert. But I had an old truck camper and the fridge was doing exactly what you describe. A fellow in the camp next to me said he would get it going for me! We removed the fridge which was no big deal at all. Very easy to do and we set it outside upside down. Pulled up a...

    If someone was breaking into your MH to possibly hurt or kill you,

    The best deterrent is not a center fire gun of any kind! Weather it be a hand gun or long gun. The most chilling sound in the middle of the night is a shell being injected into a 12 gauge. That sound will send any intruder high tailing it. No need to shout I HAVE A WEAPON. He will be too far...

    Towing with a Nissan Frontier

    Hi Gary I found this on the net and it is so close to my 07 Frontier Crew Cab 4 wheel drive. It is within a few pounds as I have added a box cover.

    You are so right. It will be just the wife and I traveling very light as we always have tenting. A lot of hiking and backpacking in our past. We have already calculated our load and have a good idea what reserve we will want depending on trailer weight. I have read a lot on this subject on...

    Towing with a Nissan Frontier

    Thanks it does help. I am getting the 7 pin plug installed and the brake. I have contacted a couple of dealers and they have no problem with test pulling. They will not sell me anything that would take me out of my weight range to legally tow. That I can figure out easy enough.

    Towing with a Nissan Frontier

    Thanks DRKM I was really getting a rip off quote that was for labor only parts were extra. I know nothing about this stuff and you have really opened my eyes. Thank you very much! I have printed off your post and will continue to look for an honest shop.
