    Blank tank valve very hard to open/close

    I really appreaciate the info, however I'm still a little fuzzy on where you are suggesting to put the penetrating oil on, the actual valve, the cable, the pull handle. I am currently at work and can't crawl underneath and get look at or I might understand a little (then again I might not)...

    Blank tank valve very hard to open/close

    What kind of lube. Do you mean lube the cable, or the actual valve. Do you mean where it connects under the black tank, not where you pull the handle. The reason I ask is the only gas lines I can think would be over by the pull handles.

    Mission Tires?

    Alkyspeed, Am I missing something? Didn't you write that you were inflating 65# max tires to 72# and then complaining that it isn't inflation pressure, owner neglect or normal usage that caused failure. I am pretty sure that over inflating a tire could be considered improper inflation, owner...

    Condensation

    I run a dehumidifer. Bought it at Lowe's. put it in the closet( have to leave the door open) . Then added the drain hose and routed down through the basement and out the bottom. Now I never have to empty a bucket. I never have a humidity or condensation problem since making this addition.

    Apollo microwave

    I was wrong. It is a GE Model JES1139BL01. Basically I went out to Wal-mart, Target, any place that had microwaves, took a tape measure and found one that fit. Then built a new mount and now I have a better micowave and it didn't cost as much as a new apolla rv microwave.

    Maxxis tires

    What do you mean not 10 ply but 10 ply rated. I just checked the web site and I couldn't find a distinction between 10 ply and 10 ply rated.

    Apollo microwave

    Same thing happened to me. To my knowledge I didn't have an extended warranty to cover it. So I took it to a small appliance shop and they fixed it(for about a month). Only cost about as much as a new one to get it fixed. After it crapped out again. I went to target found a sharp carasouel...

    Battery gauge flatlines

    Original batteries. It goes to the position it is in when turned off. What I saw it do was, suddenly the battery gauge went completely flat, like I had just turned the truck off. Then just as suddenly, popped right back on and ran the next 60 miles without incident. I checked the battery...

    Battery gauge flatlines

    I've got a 2004 Dogdge 2500 quad cab. Once on each of the last two days the battery gauge flatlined on me. It stayed flat lined for about 20 seconds during which the check gauges lite comes on. Then the gauge comes back to life with full power and the check gauges lite goes off. Anyone...

    Overhang sagging

    Any idea where the cross members are. If I can find them, I guess I should predrill a hole then screw it in with a little loctite on it. Any chance Heartland would have the specs on where the precise placement of the crossmembers might be.

    2nd Air Conditioner for Bedroom

    You can get a carrier low profile on ebay for around $570 plus around $100 shipping. Self install is easy if I did it. The only hard part is getting it on the roof. Of course if you have to move a satelitte dish, that's something I don't have a clue about.
