FUEL PUMP My experience.  Drove my '94 class B (V-8 351) almost nonstop from SE Louisiana to the Painted desert.  Started having the same problem.  Missing and chugging when I needed power.  Stayed overnight.  Ran great the next day until I got close to Grand Canyon.  Same problem.  Camped a...

With a tail wind going down hill. Actually could be.  How fast does he drive?  I had a V10 in a 28' class c that got 9 when taking my time. Scott

John, I advertised my 97 class C on rvtrader.com, rvclassified.com and a local "picture" advertisement.  The local ad  generated more interest than the internet ads and sold the rv.  Scott

My '97 class C with V-10 had 69,000 miles when I sold it .  I'm sure it still runs great!  Never had a problem.

Mr. Boarderline Another item to consider. If your truck bed is less than 8 feet, you may have other things to consider.  Some 6.5 ft beds paired with the wrong 5th wheel can cause problems when turning.  The front of the camper could hit the back window of the truck. Sliding hitches can help...

After further inspection of the converter/charger (not inverter/charger) it tells me the max output is 13.4v.  However, it also has what appears to be a phone jack that indicates that a charge rate of 14.4v can be obtained by plugging in something.  There is a plug installed with 2 wires looped...

Hey folks, During a check of fluids and such, I removed the house battery caps to find the water low (just above the plates).  The 6v batteries were also bubbling.  The MH was plugged in to shore power.  The combined voltage is 14.2v while plugged up and 13.5v when not. It appears that the...

Thanks all for tire advise.  I just wasn't sure if higher load range tires needed the same attention. Scott On to the next subject.  batteries

HAVING HAD TT AND SMALLER MOTOHOMES, I ALWAYS CHANGED TIRES EVERY 5 YEARS EVEN WHEN THE TIRE DEALER TOLD ME THE TIRES WERE IN GREAT SHAPE.  I JUST COULDN'T IMAGINE THE PROBLEMS OF HAVING A SEPERATION WHILE IN DEATH VALLEY OR WORSE(IF POSSIBLE).  NOW THAT I HAVE A 32'  WITH 19.5'S I'M WONDERING...

THANKS FOR YOUR COMMENTS.  I GRADUATED FROM A CLASS C WHICH DIDN'T HAVE A TRANSFER SWITCH.  I DIDN'T HAVE TO WORRY WHEN EXERCISING THE GENSET.  I TRY TO RUN MY GENSET ONCE A WEEK AND DIDN'T KNOW HOW IMPORTANT IT WAS TO UNPLUG WHEN A TRANSFER SWITCH IS INVOLVED. SCOTT

I HAVE NEW (TO ME) 2003 ALLEGRO WITH AN AC TRANSFER SWITCH.  IS IT OKAY TO START GENSET WHILE PLUGGED IN?

I HAVE A '97 FOURWINDS WITH DELAMINATION ABOUT 10" X 12".  I WILL ATTEMPT REPAIRS BUT I'M LOOKING FOR ADVISE FROM ANYONE WHO MAY HAVE DONE THIS. THANKS,  SCOTT
