  1. Google Fleetwood, click on Expedition (never mind that it's a 2016), scroll all the way to bottom of page and click on manual. Then click on type of coach...Expedition and all the years show up, click on 2005 and the manual will down load for you! Carl

    Coolant Level Low

    Thanks, Brett. I'll call Spartan today. I'm almost getting used to the Beep and yellow ck engine! I do notice that when it's on, my ability to climb is 5-10 mph less, than when it's off. Wayne, thanks for info. I'll go engine diving later...if weather permits. Currently, I'm getting some hail. Just what I needed! My coolant level, cold, is just above the see thru bubble. Hot??? My tank is metal. Have not lost any since Colorado, now in Memphis, until tomorrow. BBQ! Carl
  3. Roger. Just out of curiosity, what kind off rig do you have? Carl
  4. Jbrunson, Congratulations on your "new to you coach"! Are you a member of FMCA? Carl
  5. Hi Roland. How far away is Flint or Detroit? What your looking for is a truck tire dealer not car. Then call and ask if they participate in our fleet program. Carl
  6. Google Remco. They will have the info and parts or unit that you need.
  7. Tom. Welcome back to the lower 48! Where are you headed next? Carl
  8. Bob, Welcome to the Forum! If you ever have time, take your Toad up 19/460 to I-77 and you will understand why you can't use the GPS all the time in a DP or Gasser! Take the road Bill suggested. It looks and is longer, but time wise it's way shorter and no white knuckles! I have traveled just about every road in that area with my 4x4 Toad for the past 6 years. I'll be on I-77 in less than 2 weeks! Won't be in Ashville this year, cause I don't have time! By the way Hwy 19 is the road you take to get to "Tail of the Dragon". Google it. 318 curves in 11 miles! Enjoy I-26. Carl
  9. I have my roof inspected and re caulked if needed every 3 years and that is a good time to clean AC units also. I'm due in Jan. 16. Carl
  10. OK, have done a little research. The rims you have is GMC. The 73' Revcon was built as a front wheel drive, and the platform was the Oldsmobile Toronado, with the 455 engine. The original tires where replaced by Radial Tires and then Radial Steel Belted. As long as the width and the height is the same any brand will do. Don't know for sure, but expect that the tire size on Revcon is the same as GMC from that era. Mr. Hall that came out with the Revcon, was the Stepson of the founder of GMC and worked as a Engineer for 20 years for GMC, before Revcon! 19.5" tires will not work as you would have to re-engineer the whole unit. You only mentioned tires, we have a tire section on Forum and you might find a post on Revcon with similar problem as yours. Carl
  11. bragan, Welcome. Did you check out the link that Brett gave you? If not, then please do so, they can answer your questions far better than we can! I can barely remember the Revcon and have had Class A's for 40+ years! Bill may remember the size of rims and tires in the 70's, I don't! Carl
  12. LOL. After all that, I will do as I always have and that is to bite the bullet every 5-6 years...replace them all! I do understand that my way, is not for everyone and the rolling change makes a lot of sense. Carl
  13. Can you lift the rubber and use a flashlight to see any obstruction? Carl
  14. Herman. I have rollers. What I had was metal shavings and each time the slide came in/out the roller slide not rolled, until someone on Forum told me to use a magnet. That was in March. Had slide inspected for any metal that did not belong....It was a rivet head, from where??? Gremlins.
  15. Good morning & welcome to Forum! Every RV that has AC, has some form of filter. You should have that information in your owner manual or a separate flyer from the AC manufacturer. If not, then call Winnebago with your VIN # and year of coach. If you have 1 or 2 units and they are visible in coach, then you just lower the bottom and take out a thin sponge like filter, about 14x14x1/4 inches, wash, dry and replace in unit. If you system is plumbed into celling, then you should have several lowered covers on each side off celling, one side will blow air and the other side will be the filters. If I remember, each will be a snap in and has the same filter as above. Good luck Carl
  16. Bill. I do agree with your assessment! It was an interesting post, in the beginning but now, we have run that dog to the ground!
  17. Would be a lot uglier thru the window! Also let bugs in... Carl
  18. Roger. Here I thought I had everything tire, nailed down, and then instead of 5 to 7 years between tire change, your advocating 7 or 8 years in your blog. Also, yesterday, you said that a rolling change should happen at 7 years! I understand the concept behind a rolling change. Confused about the 7 or 8 years, before you start. I for one would not trust my front tires for that length of time! Carl
  19. Barkley, your not alone! I have one over the sink and I only put the cover back on when in Park...driving, it comes off! At the house, they are fine. All off mine are 120ac. J & Tom. Be very carful with LED, make sure they don't have a clear cover (like a flashlight), or no cover (like a upside down scone. They will burn your retina, if you accidentally look at them enough times. Even one time and you will see dots for a long time. Especially harmful to children! 90% of my lights are LED & have an opaque cover! Some medium to high end coaches have LED for high beam headlights...I pity the person coming at them! Carl
  20. Roy. If Bill is home. The weather is very HOT. I'm in Oklahoma City and it's like an oven! If you go North, you will start running into cool/cold weather. I would go with "Buggy" or Jeep, just depends on what you and your wife like to do! Carl
  21. Agree...I think we have covered all the above! OR is in accordance with the Federal 1976 change in width from 96" to 102"!
  22. I just looked up the 2010 Catalogue and specs on my coach... My GVWR is 46,600. Carl
  23. Congratulations on your Eagle...nice coach! Happy Labor Day Weekend. Carl
  24. Ray. That's what I did. But I first took a magnet under the lip...got metal shavings, then cleaned area. Took three tries, now I don't have marks anymore! Carl
