Even if it is a new unit, if it has set any where very long at all, you can get critters in the combustion chamber.

The springs usually have a flat spot in them and the saddle/clamping area. On some springs the area is more noticeably bigger than others.

If you look at your drain plumbing under the sink, you will find the trap or traps that go from the sink drains to the main drain line. At the main drain line, the trap should go into a tee fitting. At the top of the tee fitting you will find a one way vent. If this is where you are feeling...

Check the color of the flame, if it is not blue, you need to have the burner cleaned. Also check for any nest in the burner chamber where the flame shoots in. If there is a blockage of any kind, it will affect the heating of the unit.

If you purchase high quality sockets, Snap-On, Mac, Matco, etc.. the 6 points are thinner wall and will out perform than their cheaper 6 point counter parts. I used to turn wrenches in a Kenworth shop and have a box full of 6 point sockets. I intentionally bought the 6 points over the 12 points...

On my 05 Ram 3500 DRW, the door indicated a heavily loaded pressure and a light load pressure. It was 45 psi for light and 80 psi for heavy. I followed this and manage to have very even tire wear with rotating them every 7500 miles. My 08 and 2010 only have the heavy load rating. I run 45 in...

Depends on your jurisdiction. It doesn't go by how much income that comes off the property, the purpose is what determines the classification. It will likely become commercial depending on your jurisdiction, and if you are zoned for something else, you will have to go through planning and...

All I can say is, remember the fiasco that Ford and Firestone had?? Firestone said 36 psi, Ford didn't like the ride so they said 28 psi. Remember what happened?? I would go with the tire manufacturer any day, every day. The manufactures have the engineers that designed and had them built...

Try removing the in bed plug from the system. If they used an after market bed harness, it is most likely plugged in behind the bumper plug. Remove it and plug your trailer into the bumper plug. Most trailer leads are long enough to reach over the tail gate, it is on mine. I have the bed...

Our 06 is set up with the micro/convection and cook top. It took some getting used to for the wife, mainly because she never used a convection oven before. After I think our 3 rd or 4 th trip, she got the hang of it and doesn't need the user manual any more. I built a second pull out drawer...

Husky has been around a while, it is as good as any other. Just make sure it is rated for the weight or more of your rig.

We stayed here last November http://www.bluewaterkey.com/. We looked at a lot of parks when we were there, this one is worth the extra you pay for. Private sites, most ocean front with private boat dock, Tiki hut, all individually owned and decorated/landscaped different. Has laundry...

Check the mount bolts. If they get over tightened ( they are only supposed to be tightened to 14 lbs ), they will pull on the rivet-nuts excessively, causing them to pull loose in the pan above and allow the condensation to leak in. Remove the inside trim and start the unit, see if the water...

If she is in and out of the fridge often, the air exchange causes a low pressure when it cools down and makes the door difficult to open. If you let it sit a few minutes after getting in it, it may open easier. If this is the case, it is normal.

Also check to see if the short piece of duct is intact and has no leaks. If it is leaking, it will go directly to the coil and cause you to freeze up prematurely. I have the same unit in our Landmark and always run the fan on low. We like it in the low 70's, high 60's when we sleep. Be in Ms...

Check and see if your Pathfinder has an auto leveling system, essentially rear air bags or air shocks. If it does, you will not see the rear of the vehicle sag, but you still will have a light front end. The purpose of a weight distributing hitch is to transfer hitch weight to the front axle...

We moved ours out of the bedroom to the bathroom when the A/C was installed. We like it much better and have it on the relocated thermostat.

For use with our set up, our best mileage is between 68-75 mph. 60-68 mph, the transmission hunts, locking it in 5th helps with the hunting, but either way drops the mileage. 50-60 we have to lock in 5th, mileage will stabilize but not as good at 70.

I would look into wheel flex. On sharp tight turns when you are sliding a wheel, it will flex .

You really don't want to put the inverter in the same compartment as the batteries. The batteries will off gas while being charged and discharged by the inverter. You will have the inverter in a corrosive and explosive environment. I would strongly encourage you to find another compartment!

Here! Here! Kudos!!

If it was aluminum, it would be useless because the water heater tank is aluminum also. The magnesium is softer and will erode before the tank.

Check your tow ratings a little closer, you will find to get the maximum rating you will need a weight distributing hitch.

I too use 2 screw in dog stakes, or the picnic table if bolted down, or the front landing gear, etc.. I put a fair amount of tension on the ropes and never had a problem. I always leave the legs on the coach, I am 6' tall and we can walk under them with out any problem.

You need to look at your towing capacity a little closer. It will most likely have to ratings, a lighter one and a heavier one. Most likely the heavier one will say "with a weight distributing hitch". Every vehicle tow specs that I have seen, and the receiver mounted on the vehicle, has two...

Personally, I would not install the inverter between shore/gen power and the breaker panel. I would replace one of the breakers in the panel with a 30 amp and run it to your inverter, then to a sub panel and transfer the loads that you want available on the inverter to the sub panel.

The worse I have seen is 7.7 mpg driving across southern South Dakota running about 70 mph, didn't realize how windy it was until we stopped at Wall Drug. For that round trip from S.W. Mo., to Custer S.D., to Yellowstone through the Big Horn Pass, to Jackson Hole through the Tetons Pass, back...

If you have a Trail-Air or similar suspension on your king pin like we do, it will actually make things worse. Go with the strong arms on you jacks and rear stabilizers, better bang for the buck and self storing.

A 13,500 BTU Dometic Penguin low profile unit only weighs about 130 pounds. They work very well and with its short height, my satellite dome is still the highest point on our trailer.

Try lighting the stove or water heater, this will help purge any air out of the system. Another thing to check, if the valve on the propane cylinder was open to quickly, you could have the excessive flow device tripped. Shut off the bottle, disconnect the line, reconnect the line and SLOOOOWLY...

I could not have said it any better! Between Pass Port America, Good Sam's, etc.. discounts, why would any one want to stay in the asphalt jungle. For what it would cost to run the generator for the night, ( I like my A/C, Satellite TV, etc..) you could spend a night in a park and really enjoy...

Is the trailer level when hooked to your tow vehicle?? If not, drop your hitch and get it level. If it is, try using a drop hitch to lower the front and raise the rear to get it in and out of your drive.

It's the level of stress. You pick up a hitchhiker, a beautiful girl. Suddenly she faints inside your car and you take her to hospital. Now that's stressful. But at the hospital , they say she is pregnant & congratulate you that you are going to be a father. You say that you are not the...

You can expect between 20%-30% of you trailers GVW to be carried on the tow vehicle.

Depending on whether you are looking at the receptacle or the plug, that could be the hot wire. If it is the common lug, you most likely have a loose connection on the receptacle. The wire going to could be loose, the pedestal is has undersized wire, improperly wired, etc.., the contacts...

Do it all the time, no problem

Check under the bed, you may have to remove the floor to the storage area or like mine remove the other half of the bed platform.

Click on the forum tab, then scroll down about half way.

On the condensation issue, remove the cover and check the drain hole in the evaporator area, it may be blocked by a bug nest or such. Also, you need to be fairly level for proper drainage to occur.

On your water heater, check the bypass plumbing. It sounds like you have the bypass valve open allowing cold water to mix with hot water.
