I normally run between 55 and 60 slowing down on bad roads. It’s those holes, gaps, bad over passes,etc that sometimes shakes it up.

Overall there is no problem with handling or ride just a rough ride on a bad roads. For example, Some Louisiana Mississippi roads are not well maintained; thus a sizable hole or bad pavement joint feel and sounds like an explosion

Koni vs Bilstein vs Monroe for F 53 chassis. Which will provide a softer ride on bad roads? Koni is supposed to be a softer ride than Bilstein but described by some as harder. Monroe is described as a softer ride but with increased sway (although some have said less sway). Bilstein is said to...

Came across the below from another forum. Makes sense! Whenever I press down on the accelerator, whether just picking up speed or going up a grade, the stream of cold air coming from the air-conditioner stops. This lack of A/C typically lasts 12 to 15 seconds. In the hot summertime, you can be...

I looked at AutoZone online; after entering my engine the computer showed it did not fit. That stirred curiosity about what pump would; thus my post. Seems like any pump should work but pumps are not equal.

Guess I did.

Thought I had updated on this problem. Two new ignition coils and 2 spark plugs. Runs great!

I am not having an any great problem; just the common problem on acceleration and at idle. Most say it’s a vacuum leak that may be hard to find. The recommended solution is the adding of a vacuum pump. So, what pump is best for a V10 and where to purchase, where in the line to install, and best...

Many have asked how to fix a F53 V10 A/C hot air flow thru dash vents due to warn or hot air occurring when accelerating or at idle. With that you got all kinds of answers. If the problem is a vacuum leak controlling fresh air doors, the addition of a vacuum pump is recommended on several...

Didn’t think so. Just curious what others do. Wasn’t planning to move slide all the way out. Just far enough to perform maintenance.

Clarification. Reservoir is behind left front tire. My side works on electric motors only with worm screws. The jacks are hydraulic.

Can the slide be moved out enough without the jacks down to check/add hydraulic fluid to the leveling reservoir? Manual says no pressure on the system; also says jacks down before moving the slide. What's best?

Update: Did the class A 32 ft MH myself. Took about 4 days. Used Meguiars 67 with rotary polisher, thick 7" diameter pure wool pads, bottle of spray water, and lots of microfiber towels. Started at top of walls etc on a 10 foot step ladder working across and down. Worked 5-7 square foot...

UPDATE: First time out this year on 500 mile RT but had the same problem. Today, mechanic replaced ignition coil and spark plug on cylinder # 7 & 8. Problem solved! Hope this will help someone else.
