  1. The biggest problem is if they put the wrong coolant in with no SCA additives you can and will damage your engine if you drive it much with that coolant in it. Hopefully you can make them re do it with the right coolant or take it to someone who can do the job correctly. I wouldn't be to worried about the silica short term but no SCA's is the big problem. I would consider converting over to ELC coolant. That way you don't have to monitor SCA levels. Keep us informed on how it goes. Bill
  2. I have one of those as a spare and like how they accordion together for more compact storage, at least when new. Bill
  3. Rick, I self insure and have for years. The company's play on people's fears of problems not on reality. You have a new coach, If you take care of it you should not have any problems that arn't covered under warranty or regular maintenance. If you have a warranty by the manufacture the outher warranty is not going to pay anything for repairs. Bill
  4. Welcome to the forum. I think you can find a fairly good list of basics by browseng the diferan't forums. What do you have or what are you looking for? Bill
  5. I agree. I would add that if you have this problem with the brakes you could run a Dot 5 full synthetic brake fluid it will not absorb water. Bill
  6. Let me see if I understand this correctly. You had a warranty that you paid $3,000-4,000 for that you didn't use and only lost half your money on. You no want to spend money insuring a new coach with full warranties included. I am betting there are enough exclusions based on the manufactuers warranties must be used first, that they will never need to spend a dime. Why not just take the refund check and match it in a savings account. That way you will have the money to fix whatever breaks and they deny coverage. Bill
  7. See if there are any numbers cast into the plastic or the lense and do a search or call HR and ask. Bill
  8. Not bad looking, never heard of it before and we are in the Freeport area often. That is one of the problems in that part of the world. They close down soon after Labor Day or sooner. Bill
  9. Congratulations on the new coach. I use and recommend the Surge Guard 34850 Portable Model with LCD Display - 50 Amp. I like being able to test the power in a spot before parking or testing outher sites if the power is bad where you are without moving the coach. I would talk to Tire Man about the Tire Minder. I use a Camco set up like this. I have 4 sections of hose and have needed all of it at some places. Never buy the cheap ones where you have to screw the ends on the hose or use clamps. https://www.amazon.com/Camco-Revolution-Swivel-Fittings-Adapter/dp/B0024E6W02 Bill
  10. I found the Trico #17-260 ones on Amazon. Have you tried Walmart? Bill
  11. Don't forget the slinky sewer hose support. I have seen places that require them. Bill
  12. It is your money, But I would put the money in savings, that way you will have it to pay for any repairs. If you buy the warranty and when they deny the claim you will still have to pay for the repair. Bill
  13. The first thing I would do is see how to get it off and clean the inside. It may just be dirt or water stain. You may be able to just clean it up. Bill
  14. While it is true route 66 is no longer a major or continues road you can find out lots of information on Google. You will find route 66 and I-40 follow much of the same route. In places R-66 is the acess road and in places it is like the local (business route) look at Albuquerque. We stayed overnight at a old place on R-66 just east of Holbrook AZ. Sun Valley RV Resort, 7625 Quartzsite St, Sun Valley, AZ 86029, sunvalleyrvresort.com, (928) 524-2972. This was a original motell on R-66 and they were adding some RV spots. There are several books out about the road but nowadays it is pretty much gone, but there are still some interesting attractions from the good old days. Bill
  15. Yes do you see the light? I don't remember what the output is supposed to be. It might be enough to help with the norml/natural power loss. I doubt it would charg much or replace parasitic drain. My panel left the roof before I bought the coach and I haven't bothered to replace it. I don't dry camp and I store the coach plugged in. Get yours working and give us some figures. Bill
  16. Good at least you are making progress. I would look for a heavy duty or continuous duty relay. Bill
  17. Carl, the wires go to the auxiliary (house) batteries on my coach. Bill
  18. Richard is right. The LED is in the cover of the front AC inside cover. I would look and see if the wires are connected as someone may have pulled them off when changing the AC filter. Well at least on my 2003 Bounder. Bill
  19. Well I think Erniee, Joe and Jim S are right. You can't make a product better by watering it down. Good comet by Carl while I was typing. Bill
  20. Yes I was able to reposition the coach so I could get buy on 4. I have heard people say they only need one. Well if you are at the dump station maybe. Bill
  21. Well If CC built it to compete with Prevost they apparently didn't come to close. Bill
  22. Yes that is some serious security. Bill
  23. Lets try this. https://www.pplmotorhomes.com/used-rvs-for-sale/diesel-motorhomes?sortBy=price+desc Hear is someplace else. http://motorhomesoftexas.com/ Bill
  24. I have 4 sections of hose and have needed all of them in some places. Lyle, I am thinking if it was exposed to heat it may be warped and no longer usable. Tell us about your new coach. Bill
  25. I would buy a new one and add the cost to the insurance. Bill
