Keon, I have had people say they would pay not to ride with me. Bill

It (the exhaust) would be hot enough to burn you if you touch it. You probably won't see a flame unless there is a window to the heat exchanger. Look and see if there are other heat vents and that air is coming out. Hopfualey hot air. Bill
-
Who knows with out better information we are just guessing. Could be the duck's are not connected. If the exhaust is blowing hot then it is going some ware maybe the basement or up behind the refrigerator. Bill
-
I bet it is the air ducts, either blocked or kinked not letting the air to flow freely. Bill

Michelin Advantage Tire Program-- Need Tire Recommendation
wildebill308 replied to f207364's topic in Tires
I got tired of trying to figure out all the variables on the Michelin program and went with the Continentals and saved more money. Bill -
Rich, I can't find one listed either. However in the pictures there appears to be a cold air return under the refrigerator and a hot air duct under the oven. I would be calling Forest River for more information. Nice looking coach 2010lexingtongts. One more thought, make sure your thermostat is on "gas heat". Bill

That is a nice coach. I hope you were able to get the new 6 speed transmission. The V10 is a great engine but it is designed to make it's power at higher RPM so some are concerned that it is revving to much. Don't worry it has a built in RPM limiter so if you wanted you could drive it with your foot on the floor and not hurt the engine. I would keep my RPM up when climbing to stay closer to peak torque. The newer coaches are doing a better job of insulating the front to reduce engine noise. Bill

Why not call Blue Ox and ask them? http://www.blueox.com/ They had a crew at Chandler this spring doing maintence/repairs on tow bars. I didn't ask about installations. Let us know what you find out. Bill

City Water Also Fills Fresh Water Tank
wildebill308 replied to 53rambler's topic in Water and Holding Tanks
Blake, I suspect that a lot of the problems with the "city" water filling the tank can be traced back to hi water pressure. I always turn on the water to blow out the hose and any rusty water/sediment in the line before hooking up. If you read the fine print in your rental agreement they all require you to have a water regulator before hooking up. Bill -
Welcome to the FMCA Forum. The "I get cool air for a few minutes" part is normal as Brett said it has to go through a purge cycle before it will light the burner. It should blow hot air after that. I would check the things Brett mentioned and make sure the vents/cold air return are open and not blocked and let us know what you find. Bill

Removing Old Graphics/Painting New Graphics
wildebill308 replied to rfsod48's topic in General Discussion
No I haven't, I am more inclined to put that money in a fund for possible upgrade. As RSBILLEDWARDS says check with the different RV salvage yards for a replacement. There is a company that advertises in the FMCA magazine that makes covers for the dash if it is the vinyl on top that is detreating. Bill -
Removing Old Graphics/Painting New Graphics
wildebill308 replied to rfsod48's topic in General Discussion
Roland, Have you talked to any of the paint shops that can do this? I think you are closer to a full repaint than you think. There are several levels of quality all the way from rattle can to the paint on better coaches where the graphics are sunk into the paint so you can't feel them when you rub your hand over them. I would also check on replacement vinyl graphics. After you get a price on paint you might think the vinyl looks pretty good. Bill -
City Water Also Fills Fresh Water Tank
wildebill308 replied to 53rambler's topic in Water and Holding Tanks
I am with Carl, on this. I bought this coach to use and use up. I don't use the campground bath house or some rigged outside shower. I do not go traipse off to the campground bathrooms in the middle of the night. Bill -
Well just a late update. I had no complaint with how the new tiers rode on the last trip of about 6,000 miles. The only change noted was as stated earlier they are slightly larger diameter than the original tires. My GPS correction went up to + 6.6%. I have to say I am happy with the new Continental program as they saved me a bunch more money than the Michelin program. Bill

Perhaps if he filled out his profile and added information to his signature he will get better info. Till then it is what it is. PPL is still the best place. Bill

I would think it would be better to work smarter rather than harder as you get older. I have used a inspection mirror and light to find the date code and my cell phone to take a picture. Now yes I did lay down on a well padded cushion for a lawn chair it was nice and comfortable. Or you could take it to a good tire shop and pay them to do it. Bill
-
I would look at PPL.com as they sell a lot of coaches. Bill

Jim, there are 2 kinds of people with toads. Those who have had to disconnect and those who will have to disconnect. Some times you can do everything right and still get in a situation you need to unhook to maneuver. Fortunately it only takes a short time to do it. Bill

FMCA Road Atlas Vs Rand McNally Motor Carriers Road Atlas
wildebill308 replied to w6pea's topic in General Discussion
I agree. This summer coming south crossed using the Tappan Z. The good part is there is no toll going south. They are getting closer to finishing the new bridge that runs parallel. I haven't looked it up whether it is a duplicate for more capacity or to replace the old bridge?- 13 replies
