Best route from Branson MO to Memphis TN
wildebill308 replied to zeboray's question in Destinations/Attractions
Welcome to the forum. You are in 2 lane heaven. I would go back to Little Rock and take I-40 Bill -
New to RVing in a Class A Motorhome- going to Glacier!
wildebill308 replied to Debshaver's question in Destinations/Attractions
Welcome to the forum. Just some thoughts, Mount Rushmore National Memorial is on your way and The Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument. Well worth a stop. Are you going to Yellowstone National Park? 287 is a possible cut off to I-15 I-15 up to US-2, from US-2 you can pick up 89 in Browning to go to St Mary and the East entrance. By the way there is a good source of information if you are going to drive up into Canada to see Waterton and Banff. (have your pass ports) Travel Alberta West Glacier Visitor Information Centre is located at the West entrance. You absolutely need to do the Red Bus Tour. It is about the only way to get a parking space at Logan Pass. The tours are informative and fun. You can find out more about the park on their website. https://www.nps.gov/glac/index.htm Bill -
Why leave Diesel engine running for short Stops
wildebill308 replied to 2013tiffin's topic in Engines
I go buy what the EGT is once it drops below 400-450 I can shut it off. If I am stopping for lunch I will shut it off and run the generator if needed. If it is a short stop to walk the dog or me I will let it idle to keep it cool in the coach. Bill -
I know I am not a fan of the permanent drain plugs. I don't think they allow the oil to drain fast enough to get all the old crud out of the pan. Bill

Oil Drain Plug - Onan 7500 Quiet Diesel Generator
wildebill308 replied to fagnaml's topic in Electrical
I don't see a problem. Any part of the teflon tape would be trapped by the filter before it could plug a small oil injection port for the crankshaft and wreck the generator. Bill -
Read my post and get the DOT numbers off the headlights. Do a google search with the numbers. Bill
-
I used the DOT numbers to find out what my headlights were made for and found replacement lights on EBay for $ 100.00 delivered that included the turn signal and marker. Once you know what they were made for originally you can look for upgrades for that application if you want to upgrade. Bill

Welcome to the forum. Thank you for posting it will help those looking for a place to stay. Bill -
Strange, I didn't have any problem and it fits Joes requirements, close to the beach full hookup, no roads to cross. Bill

What does Cummings/ Onan say about the time? It doesn't sound to bad to me. You have to hold the switch down while it builds fuel preshure and heats the glow plugs. Bill

Diesel Motorhome MPG-- Honest Answers Please

Interesting, Propane is the only mod that I haven't tried. Where is that section in Texas with a long downhill and a big tailwind. Bill -
CEILING LEAK THROUGH LIGHT PORTS
wildebill308 replied to eric@babin.com's topic in Systems and Appliances
Why not just order one from Camco/ Amazon I think I saw a universal 14" for about $16.00. Bill -
I have stayed at Dellanera RV Park, 10901 Termini-San Luis Pass Rd, Galveston, TX 77554 dellanerarvpark.com, (409) 797-5102. Nice place on the beach side of the road. It is just east of Stella Mar. I looked at Sandpiper but it was behind a public beach and parking. Not a bad park but lots going on and it will be hi traffic and BUSEY with people going to the beach. Dellanera RV Park is more remot in there is no public parking right there for the beach. It is almost a private beach for the RV park residents. Look at Google Earth. Schlitterbahn water park should be fun. Whenever I hear Schlitterbahn water park I think of the one in New Braunfels Tx. It is on the Guadalupe River. Like carl said plan to ride the Ferry it is free and if you want you can leave your car and just ride it round trip. It is also a good way to see the dolphins in the bay for free. There are people who will take you out for a nice fee to see them if you want. Bill

What is your average for 10 fill ups? Bill -
You got that right. Bill

Great now the DW won't be beating you up. I believe you were motivated to solve that problem. Bill

Byron, Behave yourself Betty needs you. Bill

Let us know what happens. I think you should be reimbursed. Bill

If I remember correctly they cut the welds, relocated it and re welded. This was to correct the thrust angle. I am not an expert but I don't know how just shiming it would work. Bill
-
Take the toad. Bill
-
Did you get an all wheel alignment? When I did they had to correct the thrust angle on the rear axle. That improved how it drove. Bill

Welcome to the forum. What did the tecks at Newmar say? Have you called them? They might have some trouble shooting ideas. Bill
