    I had the same issue on a 2008 Freightliner with a Cummins engine. It happened twice within a matter of days and never happened again. At that time, Pat was still at the Gaffney Service Center, I called her to see if they had any information on the issue. It just so happened they had a motorhome in that had been there for 3 weeks as I recall. They started and shut it down 8-10 times a day and never duplicated the problem. As far as I know they never did diagnose the cause the problem. For me, it happened those two times and never happened again the last 4 years I owned it but you can bet I thought about it every time I turned the key off.

    I used diesel to start brush fires for years when I had my ranch. I would use a paper feed sack to start it. The crews clearing land for highway R-O-W's used diesel to for years to start the fires; I don't know what the use today. Maybe we have a more volatile diesel here in Texas, Joe. Just to not stray from the topic, I don't recommend burning the diesel while its in your tank to destroy the algae.

    As long as my exhaust smells like french fries, I don't care.

    My suggestion would be to call them and ask. I haven't heard any gasser comment on fuel cost/savings on any of the forums I visit.

    The TSD Logistics program is for diesel fuel only.

    This is an interesting topic. So we go from fossil diesel to biodiesel and now possibly to renewable diesel. https://www.chron.com/business/energy/article/Valero-Darling-planning-major-renewable-diesel-14424412.php

    It is not an inherent problem for DSDP's or VTDP's. Maybe this link will help. http://www.irv2.com/forums/f103/getting-hot-under-kitchen-sink-from-oasis-439468.html http://www.irv2.com/forums/f103/excessive-heat-kitchen-area-under-sink-427563.html

    Sometimes patience and being cautious can be financially costly, Joe. 🤷‍♂️

    You have a pump running constantly. Check the switch on top of the silver control box and you will probably find its been turned on. Turn it off.

    FYI...the hood release cable and the unclaimed electrical connector are not chassis related. Brett, he has an air dryer and most likely has three drain lanyards.

    You can get the fault code from the LBCU by going to the Diagnostic menu.

    Thanks for the post. Just verified mine are correct.

    I noticed that. There was plenty...thankfully.

    You have to wonder how many are replaced and the "broken one" is tossed when it could be repaired.

    Got the Weber out.

    It was excellent.

    They didn't charge me when they gave me a trade-in value 2 years ago. I guess they changed their policy.

    All of the NIRV locations have a great reputation for service, warranty or otherwise.

    Newmar does have a 24/7 number. The number is on a decal located on the drivers window. I recommend he communicates his displeasure with his new coach directly to Newmar rather than setting it up that Newmar didn't respond to his concern posted on this site. Newmar does monitor the Newmar forum on iRV2, Carl. I've never seen them respond to any question or concern however.

    Shane...don't start bashing Newmar for such a petty thing and for your information, Newmar does not monitor this forum so you're wasting that effort. Maybe next time you should buy a Newell or Prevost so it will be customized to your requirements. I understand why you left iRV2 and I also know the other side of the story.

    Should have known, Bill.

    Joe, maybe we need to have a FMCA sanctioned smoke off, what do you think?
  23. elkhartjim
    Well, I didn't do a brisket but I did do homemade Mac n Cheese and pork chops on my pellet grill.

    If its that important to find this weekend, you can call Freightliner 24/7/365 at 800-385-4357. You will need the last 6 of the VIN. Welcome to the Newmar family.

    I envy your talent, nice job.
