I would agree with Gary and Bird. I have only ran my refrigerator on gas a few times and it did take a considerably longer time to purge the air from the lines than it did with my water heater or stove. My propane heater also takes a couple of cycles to purge before it will light. I try to...

I am looking at something that will raise the frame no more than half an inch. I don't want to stress the trailer frame. The stack jacks or stabilizers is what they really are that I am using now do an ok job of keeping the trailer steady. However they only have a small area of contact with the...

I have a 98 keystone springdale light travel trailer that I am currently using camco aluminum stack jacks for stabilization. I am planning on adding permanent jacks to the frame before next season to save space in my limited storage area and to make setup a little quicker. I am looking at...

Thanks Mudd. I only have one access to the space behind the fridge and that is at the bottom so I was thinking about mounting it in the vent pipe on the roof to draw the air out. That way it is pulling in fresh air from the bottom vents and not trying to blow it back out the same vents.

You are right Rene, drums all around. Thinking one thing and typing another. I'll just blame it on my old timers disease.  :o

That was actually the model of fan that I was looking at Reg. Thanks for the link.

Thanks Denny. I fill the tank and check the leaf springs like you suggested. I'm not sure that this trailer was very well maintained so I had already planned to pull the the bearings and repack them. Hopefully the shafts and rotors will still be good. I know the brakes are working really well...

Is your AC ducted through your ceiling? If so then those may be vents to allow air flow and keep condensation from building up in the ceiling. 

The smell comes from the mouse urine. A mouse will leave drops of urine as it travels to mark it's territory. I worked pest control for ten years and I could smell mice and roaches before I ever saw any physical evidence. If you can get to the area where the mice were a good bacterial enzyme...

The fee in Oklahoma is $8 non refundable also but that is for the state parks here. Reserving online for the Corp of Engineer parks here doesn't have any extra fees.

It sounds like it would be a worthwhile upgrade. Thanks everyone for the advice.

I was looking into getting a 12v fan to place in the vent space behind my refrigerator to help vent the heat quicker. Has anyone used these type of fans and how well do they work. The manufacturer claims that it will reduce the cool down time of the fridge by half and increase the efficiency...

I had a couple of cracks in my grey water holding tank that would leak when the tank was approaching full level. After doing some research on the cost of a new tank and the fittings that I would need to replace I also started checking into the possibility of using some type of sealant to to seal...

I use Reserve America to make my reservations here in Oklahoma for the state parks. I have never seen anything like that on my reservations. I wonder if it is a state specific thing? But yeah I would definitely be getting my money back for that and filing complaints with everybody I could think of.

Great Bob! It sure is nice when you catch a break with those simple fixes. Glad it worked out for you.
