  1. Thanks, I'll give it a try when I get back to the USA in mid Dec. Carl
  2. It's called a coil over ignition system. 454 L-21. I ran 2 of them in a 32' Scarab race boat...same problem! Lots of fun when one dies at 92 knots... Go to any Auto Store...get several! Carl
  3. Get with Brett Wolfe. Carl
  4. Hi Kent. Welcome to FMCA and the Forum! Are you from Hawaii and married a Cajun? Carl
  5. Monty. Welcome to the Forum. How many miles does the unit have on it? A gasser with low miles, is good. Not so on a DP. Have it checked by a pro or two, is a good idea. As far as floor plan is concerned, if your wife likes it, nothing else matters! There are a lot off members on Forum that has a 38DP Bounder, look for them and click on name and send a PM. Hope you join FMCA and enjoy which ever coach you find and buy! Carl
  6. Do you know that we have not lost a "drop" of water since we got a atmosphere? Sorry, not much PC in Texas, unless they are transplants!
  7. John. Do you check or have someone check your caulking on roof each year? When was it last re caulked? Recommend every 3 years along with a leak test! I have a capillary leak in my bath room, showed up last Thursday, half way between Charleston and Columbia, SC on I-95 as I was hauling my rear back to Texas. My last caulk was Nov. 13, when I bought coach. Carl
  8. J. I assume it was motor boat?! I can attest to that. Love is the first & last day, nothing between! If your running out of things to fix and your bored, I'll drop mine off. Should keep you busy for about 6 months! I figure $10K should make it road ready again! Carl
  9. Ditto! Please, do not delete that feature!!! Carl
  10. I thought long and hard about a Hydrolift for my HD & was going to get one earlier this year. Changed my mind, when a member of Swinging Golfers had the hydraulics fail while going down I-95S in NC. last March....it totaled the toad, bike and tore out over $ 10K worth off coach, his is a 14' AMC Eagle 45' DP 600 HP Cummins! I saw him last week in NC and this week in SC and he now carries a new HD in the bed of a new 4x4 truck! Carl
  11. You might also call Foretravel in TX. and find out what they are using today. Carl
  12. Joe. Hi! I have the Aqua Hot 450 & with a friend, who has the same unit, we serviced mine (about 5 hours) for what a Tech does in 45 minutes! Bobs coach went to a AH Dealer! His wife drove it there, as Bob was at a clinic getting his fix for a little finger nail, he ripped clean off! I had to close my ears as he used every big word in the book! If you have nothing better to do? Go for it! Your still young. Also, keep your kids in the house, as you don't want them to hear all the BIG words you'll be using! We are both over 70 years old and came to the conclusion that time equals a lot of money, actually it's a priceless commodity! I will pay the $$$ and leave with clean, whole nails attached! Carl
  13. Dutchstar3812. Taking a shower from a pan of water is impossible (well, almost). I think they gave up washing the body or dishes, with a pan off hot water, a very long time ago!!!
  14. I'll go with Bill. Also, CW & GS today, is not the way it was when they where separate. Unless it's just for a store item, I stay away from CW! Carl
  15. rhart. On another post from you, you purchased a DP ! You wreck it? As for washer/dryer, I have a Splendid stackable and it's fine for me! Have had no problems. I do take my Jeans in for dry cleaning and wash towels about once a month in Laundromat. If you have money to burn and want to stay at 40', may I suggest you order a coach from Newell. Carl
  16. My 2006 Southwind 32', had the same issue. CW (pre Lemonis) fixed it, just don't remember how....sorry! Agree, Bill. Pre bankruptcy and post...still an issue, amazing! Carl
  17. Hi Bill. I used them in 2012 on my Allegro Bus, I did a dumb thing. Was leaving a rally at Lake Medina and forgot to unhook, didn't hurt the Park stuff, but did a job on my elect cord and water hose. I had no clue until I got to Hwy and got all kinds off phone calls!!! Duh. TCC had me for about 4 hours and they replaced my hose on reel and new 50A cable on reel. I had lost about half of each! They do a lot of Prevost's and Liberty coaches there, when you roil by, you would think of it as just another small town garage! I'm at Sky Line Ranch RV park once a year, and always stop by now. Carl
  18. hsbsafty Is your coach at the dealer? What is the slide doing or not doing? Have you contacted Winnebago? I had a 07' Winnebago Tour 40KD and my right slide kept hanging up in the out position, turned out to be a slide/floor match up problem. When I let the slide out it would drop about a 1/4" to low. Dealer adjusted slide & problem fixed (1 off 300 in 5 years). I just love W! Carl
  19. At this moment in time, I'm on air leveling...Tonight, I'll be dry camped at a Country Club and be on HWH. My coach, automatically dumps the air out of airbags, before HWH kicks in. When I'm on air the "air compressor" regulates my level. I block the wheels, brake goes off, the coach is not going anywhere! Other, than getting accumulated condensation out of my air system, I see no good reason to dump tanks....even when I check for or get rid of condensation I only open valves long enough to feel dry air. Have I been doing something wrong in the past 10 years? The info on coach in river, never said, if it was gasser or DP. From what I could see, 36' newer model. Carl
  20. rwitt. Good morning. When you get to the Valley, send a PM to Butler (he does Blogs on Forum), he lives in the Valley now and would definitely know a good tech! Stay away from Camping World. Good Luck. Carl
  21. Hi Jim. Your coach and mine! Besides, the preventive measure is also good for when I'm fueling! Don't have a dog now, but the bandanna is still there for when I get adopted again! Can you imagine total air loss? Carl
  22. Your in a beautiful part of the world!
  23. Gmac If in doubt, check it out! Are you looking for a solution or not?
  24. trynforpar ultraglide is right! I suggest that you read the post by chp007 under class A motorhomes! After that, if your in doubt, send him a PM. I will have no dealings with the "Lebanon boy Marcus Lamonis," the owner of CW, now or in the future! Carl
