    U might want to take a look in The RVers Corner . net I believe. There is a extensive piece on their tech bout the same problem. A onan tech wrote out a number of things u may want to check out. P.S mine does the same thing on occasion.

    REcently moved my m/h from from N.C to N.Y.. Now a return trip required with converstion van and 16' trailer. ? is that I hear that Va. has a limit on time spent at their rest areas on 81. This trip financially does not allow for a paid stay over. Any knowledge of the stay at the rest stops...

    Recently made my trial run with my 83 pace arrow ( that I have been rebuilding ) fron N.C to upstate N.Y. Only problem encountered was burnt plug wires. The set installed was the best auto zone had, but still burnt the # 1 and #3 cylinder wires. THis a stock 454 with factory manifolds. Any...

      Nothing inline-direct vacuum. Have tried to buy a check valve to hold the vacuum til the door switch dumps the vac. But can`t find a valve for 1/4" line anywhere.

      No dash switch on this unit for the step, only the door switch which works fine. As I  early posted, works great under normal driving conditions, but vacuum lost when 4 barrel is opened.

  Have removed all the air pump system on my 83 pace arrow 454, and pluged all with 1/4 " pipe plugs. Less restriction if all old plumbing is removed, and less chance of old debris inside coming loose of years and causing future broblems.

    My older pace arrow has a vaccum operated step .Pulls in fine under normal vaccum, but have found that under heavy operation on engine( seconds open) vac fails and step drops down. Have tried to locate a check valve with no avail. $`s are at a premium, so at present new steps out of the...

  My Dometic Classic all it once started consuming far more electicity than normal ALOT MOREEEEEEEEEEE. Found the problem to be a bad heating unit. Try switching over to gas for awhile, then check your bill.

  Friend needs to replace the gas valve on a older Suburban water heater. Model vsv 6x? It appears to be threaded in, if so is there room to unthread it in the housing?

  Have finally removed the oil pan on my 83 pace arrow , to find the sump filled with silicone from a rebuild. Engine internally looks fine. Did have to move tranny back and remove flex plate for pan removal. Major time consuming fix, but no damage. I wish to thank all the responses to my...

      Also quick disconects for propane make it ease with no leakage.

      Volume is very important, but I like to know that the pressure required is getting to the top end,and it is there fore recirculationg thru out the rotating system.

  and old rule of thumb was 10p.s.i per 1000 rpm. This old girl pulls 3000 @ 65mph. Too close for comfort, especially on a long run.

    Although my rig is old, and I reside in it full time, I installed a extend a stay last fall. I then a had a local propane dealer drop a 100 gal. tank. The extend a stay works excellent ,as I do not as use my onboard.(It is full and keep if for reserve). These extend a stay are easily...

      Is it possible to loss oil pressure should a by-pass valve on a oil cooler fail on a 454 chevy . Still hoping for a quick fix. Other than pulling the flex plate in order to lower oil pan completely to change oil pump.[
