To bad Winnebago doesn't do a better job of taking care of its customers/owners. I found almost all the installation instructions and wiring diagrams for my major appliances. Bill

I would call Winnebago. I would also look in the big bag of manuels/paperwork that came with it. There may be installation instructions. Bill

Welcome to the forum. Bill

I agree, however the problem is having someone who is capable of doing the troubleshooting and repair will most likely cost more than the new replacement. Bill

Looks like you may have gotten lucky. I would run some Diesel Kleen at a double dose level and see if it runs better. Go put some miles on it and have some fun. Have a great Labor Day Bill

I would think if locating the pigtail to connect a trailer brakes control was a hi priority I would have looked for and located it on my final walkaround at delivery. Bill

That sounds like a good idea. I will help judge. Bill

Looks good. Bill

Good plan, welcome to the forum. Bill

Welcome to the forum. Bill

Glad you are having a good time. Bill

Amazing, nobody has a comment in 5 days. Bill

That and don't let your wife see you puting hers back. Bill

Welcome to the forum. Do you have anything that says you have one? I will almost bet you don't have one. Bill

We had a yard forklift that was WW2 vintage that had close to 40 ton capacity. They only brought it out to move the big propane tanks. Had to stay on topic. Bill

Welcome to the forum. There are some amazing views on that road. You can look at some of it from Google maps street view. Bill

True, there is always some oddball set up. There was about 150 propane powered forklifts where I use to work in all kinds of different configurations and vintages. Bill

All the forklift propane tanks I have ever seen are made to be installed on their side. Bill

Yes, you have already filled the filter, 6 qt would overfill the oil level. I also find that someone has changed the dipstick but can't come up with another explanation, as you say it never shower oil on the dipstick. Maybe Joe can see if that is the right part number on the dipstick. Bill

Yes the fuel filters look nasty, that's why you change them. It is always a good idea to have a second set with you incase you get some bad fuel. The important thing is to do the turbo inspection like jleamont suggested and let us know what you find. Bill

What or who is a LO? This is pretty sad that someone working on it sees there is no oil on the dipstick after a oil change and doesn't do or say anything to correct the problem. The V-10 holds 6 quarts with a new filter, maybe a smidge more depending on the filter. If you have put 6 quarts in and it isn't showing on the dipstick you probably have the wrong dipstick. In reality the only way to know is to drain the oil and measure how much you have. Puting 5 qt back in the engine(the filter will have some oil in it already) and see if it is showing on the dipstick. Then if it is a little bit low you can top it up. You will lose a little to the process but not much. If it doesn't show on the dipstick that would indicate it was the wrong dipstick. You could get a used dipstick from a salvage yard and see if it shows the right oil level. You can always calibrate it using this method. Bill

Good suggestions. Have you tried to light the cook top? Does your water heater light? Can you smell gas when you try to light it? Have you tried a match to see if you are getting gas? Bill

Minot, What do you think? Likes, Dislikes? What went well and what needs some work? Bill

I will second that statement. I would list him as the most knowledgeable Cat mecanic I know. He is definitely the most helpful in sharing his knowledge. Bill

Welcome to the forum and thank you for your service. Bill
