What is the actual opening size for the fridge? There may be more options than you think available in a residential fridge and the newer technology is nothing to be sneezed at.

While reading the post, I was also thinking about the roof vent, as Brett pointed out. Either in poor condition, maybe bent or some other reason. As mentioned in another post about whistling inside the coach, a deflector may be an answer. I have in the past made temporary ones out of very lightweight aluminum, or plasticore, "that's the stuff that cheap political signs are made of", can be attached to the roof with gorilla tape and usually driven as much as 50 miles before giving up, of course use some type of strap or rope to make sure that it doesn't blow off and hit another vehicle. The issue seems very much like back pressure in the fridge vent system.

............... Yep I agree!

I also like the no phone while driving rule, but my job requires that I do answer all calls, they even supply my cell phone. I have a Bluetooth setup in all my vehicles to make that possible, and I will on most occasions pull over to talk as quickly as possible. Walmart and I am sure others have a hands free Bluetooth device for vehicles for under thirty dollars, my daughter has one in her car and says that it works very well.

If you have dish or direct, they both will allow you to use another receiver that can be mounted in the coach or trailer for a small fee per month, or you can simply move the house receiver to your rv when you leave home. Both have lite plans for $29.95 per month.

I'll takes bets! DITTO several times.................

Here is another one, don't know where they are located. http://www.tek-tanks.com/boattanks/custom-boat-tanks/waste-and-grey-water-tanks/

My paw in-law used one of those blue speckled ones on the an old box shaped wood heater. He put the coffee on at 3 am, just coffee in the water, woke everybody a 5, then put one cup of cold water in the boiling coffee to make the grounds drop to the bottom. I told my wife the first time that I saw this that he didn't need to get out of his chair to pour for the group, all he needed was a pair of scissors to snip it off before going to the next.

Only way that I know for it not to change, is to fill with nitrogen, but you will need a fat pocket book when you leave home.

I found 4 used railroad ties that are in good condition, place 2 side by side and used some aluminum strap to tie them together for both sets of duals, almost forgot, used a chain saw to taper the ends before joining them. Two side by side is plenty wide enough for the duals to rest on. Works great for me and probably will be good for the rest of my life.

I usually take one off and take it to a NAPA or any comparable auto parts store for them to match it up. They are pretty common sizes normally. To remove I use plenty of rustbuster sprayed on each end, wiggle the fitting very carefully back and forth until it begins to turn freely.

In another post, he stated that he has a 2014 Ford Flex, don't know for sure.

What make is your tow dolly? I can't imagine busting tow straps unless there is something awry with your setup. Flat tow will be easier, but some guidance may be in order to remedy the strap breaking until that happens. If using an Acme brand or one of any brand that does not have a swivel plate, then you will need to leave your steering unlocked while towing, otherwise the force while turning will break straps. If you are using one with a swivel plate, be sure that the swivel will swivel freely, some of those units have a locking mechanism, be sure that is is unlocked while towing. Otherwise, you may be trying to just pull the strap too tight, good and snug is enough. I have used tow dollies for 30+ years and have yet to break a strap. Good luck, may you have happier trails and tales in the future.

Ditto X2 on Brett's post, only thing to add to this, is that this is a great time to check the short rubber hoses that attach to each wheel, for inside failure, I have seen these begin to collapse on the inside over the years and will cause the brakes to feel very hard to apply and or a spongey feel. I have even seen the brake fail to release on a wheel because the rubber had broken inside the hose allowing the fluid to pass to the wheel, but it was acting like a backflow valve. Just a little bit of info in case yours is acting crazy.

On most coaches, the gauge on the dash will only show what is happening with the chassis batteries because that is the drivers way of knowing about the chassis battery condition. The battery isolation system if working properly, does just that, isolates the chassis from the house batteries. The inside lights and other 12 volt house appliances should wired to the house batteries. Not too big of a surprise that an analog gauge will be a tad inaccurate. I would be surprised if a 95 model has a digital gauge.

12.5 with EVERYTHING on doesn't sound too bad. Now what does it read with everything off? If the batteries are in good condition, but low on charge, I would expect 13.5 to 14. This is where a cheap digital voltmeter comes in real handy, to see if the analog gauge is accurate or not. Oh yes the digital reading should be taken between the + and - battery post with the charge system on, expect 13.5 to 14, after turning the charge system off, and allowing the batteries to rest, about 30 minutes, 12.6 should be normal.

I didn't say what to fill the cup with Bill, could use water, beer, wine, or anything else you would like to drink afterwards. Just knowing what is available in a pinch,

I'm also diabetic, have not a glass of sweet tea in 50+ years, if it is brewed right you don't need sweetener to enjoy it. Here is an interesting take on tea also, if you drink it hot, like coffee, there is no caffeine, once it cools, it does contain caffeine. I love mine over plenty of ice, just put a piece of lemon in, not squeezed, just a hint. If you make it or coffee using regular tap water, be sure to clean the faucet that it is drawn from weekly with vinegar, this removes that musty taste from the water and improves the taste a lot.

Been there and don that. I have air leveling, and still carry leveling provisions, yes get some leveling devices. I use one of those red solo cups to check for level, fill it to 1/8 inch from the top, set it in the middle of the coach, when the space is equal all the way around between liquid and top, you are there.

If you are using Windows 7,8, or 10, just right click on the diagram, choose save, then save it to your saved folder. Then you can open it with your favorite viewer, and enlarge it there, or simply print it directly from where it is, although it will be in smaller format.

While coffee is your thing, I love a good glass of cold sun tea, just put the tea bags in a gallon glass jar full of water, leave it in the sun for 8 to 10 hours, smoothest I have ever drank. My wife is in to the Keurig thing also, but it is hard to beat a good cup of brewed Folgers.

Sure seems coincidental that the problem only occured after the anti siphoning device was replaced, that is why I would start there to correct the problem. My black tank washer is me, and I always use hot water to wash the black tank. When I return home after a trip, the hot water is still hot, I pour hot water, calgon, and a cup of dawn dishwater liquid into the black tank, after all, the crud in there is a large percentage grease, that is what makes it like to stick to a carrier. Of course, I empty the tank again immediately after washing it, then add a few cubes of ice just for laughs.

I don't know what that valve looks like, but it almost sounds as if it is turned backwards. An anti siphoning valve is no more than a checkvalve, if there is an arrow, then it should be pointed in the correct direction of flow, although I have seen those mis labeled from the factory. You can take the device back out and blow into it in the direction of the arrow, if you cannot get air through, then blow in the other direction, if air passes then it is mis labeled, if no air passes in this direction either, it is a faulty device. Is the black tank washer tied to the hot water flow somehow?

Tell them to go buy some carbon credits from Al Gore, and do so in your name, that way you and Al will both be happier.

Sikaflex is what I used to hold the aluminum skins that I used to cover the old window holes while converting the bus, I one rivet every 12 inches just to hold in place while the sikaflex cured. No water penetration in that area. The aircraft industry has used it for years to apply skins on their craft, also Great Dane trailers here in B'ham uses it to apply the aluminum skin on their box style trailers, and they sure do not leak. But as stated by Bill, prep is the most important part of doing anything well. I installed and climbed radio towers for many years, and someone suggested that I use a dab of silicone on the bolts that hold the legs of the tower, two years later, those galvanized bolts were so rusty that we had to break each one to replace them, so silicone caulk is also highly corrosive to metal.
