    Fuel tank internal timer

    Just purchased a 2021 Torque 371. On the outside fuel switch it mentions turning on the internal timer before use. Our last trailer had the timer right by the main door, but I cannot find the internal timer inside anywhere? Anyone have any ideas...TIA!

    Brand of fuel filter for this diesel

    I want to carry a fuel filter JUST IN CASE but don't like the prices quoted by my GM dealer. I know there is a law saying that GM cannot void my warranty because I do not use Delco but I want a comparable filter at an improved price. Any suggestions?

    Diesel fuel availability

    I just took delivery of a new Silverado 2500 with Duramax diesel. It's the first diesel vehicle I've ever owned and I have a few stupid questions about fueling on the road. It requires the new ultra low sulfur diesel. Is that pretty much the only thing being sold in the US and Canada or do...

    Diesel Fuel Price

    I got all excited today. I pulled into a Flying J outside of Portland, OR an filled up at $2.02 a gallon. After paying $2.69 in Washington, I thought that I was in paradise. Then they tacked on about 25 cents a gallon "State Road" charge, so my excitement diminished about 12 points. That's a...

    Diesel fuel prices and winter

    Don't you just know it, when fuel prices drop it will be pretty much too cold for RVing unless one fulltimes in southern climates. Since the DW still works we put the "horn" away for the winter and now fuel prices drop. Usually the prices go up in winter due to the increased need for home...

    Generator Fuel Type

    Evening All!, I need to know if I get the generator prep option on a Big Horn, is it the intention of this prep to use LP gas? I want to use gasoline as the fuel, in my research both the 6.5kw as well as the 5.5kw Onan get a little better economy using gasoline verses LP. I've found out that...
