Diesel Exhaust Fluid Problems -- Any Ideas?
manholt replied to ultraglide's topic in Type A motorhomes
Ultraglide. I have to agree with Pilot. They have a constant 24/7/365 turn over of DEF and Diesel, if the DEF was bad, trucks would be shut down all over the Hwy's! That said, I would contact Cummins in Atlanta, GA. and Chicago via Certified letter! It would not surprise me if your codes come back on again! Computer chips and electronics is a fickled thing!!!! -
Diesel Motorhome MPG-- Honest Answers Please
manholt replied to luckydog1949's topic in Type A motorhomes
Deen, as Herman and I said, on the other tread. Get a new engine from Cummins...if they are "kicking in $ 10K", they are trying to get away cheap!!! Cummins have known for years that the 650 is trouble! Stand up and hold them to it...my Atty would be on them now! Carl C. -
99 my 2 cents. If this was pre 07', I would recommend any Monaco product in DP, but they all went BK! I had a Allegro Bus 36', 2011 new and Bob Tiffin does stand behind his product and will take care off you in Red Bay, I just got tired off spending my time there! From what I have been told by owners, Entegra Anthem and Cornerstone is a good coach. Unless your a multi millionaire and don't care, stay away from NEW Foretravel, Newell, Marathon, Liberty, Prevost, etc. On any new DP, you will drop 20 - 30% in value when you drive off the lot! What ever you decide on, I would recommend a used one! Carl C.

Keeping The Ice Maker Water Valve From Freezing
manholt replied to wildebill308's topic in Systems and Appliances
Good morning lenp! What's a single digit? I only see that from idiot drivers on occasion!!!!! Sorry, we are in Texas If you don't like the weather, it will change by next day! Have no problem with getting ice, can't get water....same in last coach Carl C. -
I remember Tuffy running away one night in Kalifornia, is he an "it" or is there several little Tuffys running around now? Hope there won't be a really PO'd female waiting next winter! Carl C.

Thank you, to all the input. I have not heard back from Bill yet....probably will end up using a portable dish and let the next owner mess with this. Who knows, he/she may be in love with Dish!!! This whole thing is my fault, I had the Dish dish installed Feb 2014 and only used it for 2 months ( all RV parks had more cable channels than what I needed), I cancelled Dish...that took almost 3 months of back and forth between India, Manila and finally USA! Then it took my atty another month to get my money back (they took $$$ out off my account for the receivers that I bought!!!

Residential Fridge Turning Off And On
manholt replied to Peggy Headrick's topic in Systems and Appliances
Mine is a Whirlpool Gold and it needs shore or gen power to run. Otherwise the light goes off. I don't boondock so it works for me! -
Is there a place under the slide that you can pull enough carpet/pad to get a correct measurement?

Diesel Motorhome MPG-- Honest Answers Please
manholt replied to luckydog1949's topic in Type A motorhomes
jleamont. Forget the regular gas stations....go in with the truckers. Lot faster and easy enter/exit! If your in Texas, look for a big Buckees, best price on Diesel. Stay away from Love's and any Casino truck stop....the tribes don't like us much, only our $$$$. Carl C. -
Update: Whole sub floor is aluminum and rollers are silicone ( 6" w x 1 1.2" h ).! I can't get at it, but I think the center roller is not rolling! Sub floor is the same height all the way across tile and have no other drag marks! I have no time for Decatur before FMCA Rally-- will try for appointment after rally. My coach will be in garage from 3/30 to 7/19! Carl C.

Rich. Can I use the current one and replace the LNB's? Kay. Good thinking, I will do that now!!! Carl

Diesel Motorhome MPG-- Honest Answers Please
manholt replied to luckydog1949's topic in Type A motorhomes
Back to mpg. I may be wrong, but I think that none off us that have large used or new DP's are all that concerned about mpg. My reason for DP is towing, air ride, comfort and space. Others have their own reasons. Back in 08', I was camped next to a lady that had a Liberty coach 06' and she told me that her mpg was 5 on a good day, but mostly around 4.6! I guess when you pay $ 1.3 million for a coach, mpg is not on top off wish list! -
Hi Rich. No load limit available, will call AMC. On that slide is the sofa, fridge, stove, micro wave, a third off my pots/pans (rest is under bus right side), 3 cabinets with dry goods and paper file, 1 cabinet with spices and a slide out drawer with canned goods, the top is an extension for counter top. I can move the can goods to bedroom. Since I'm alone in coach, I have a lot of space in rear. If the "clip" is missing, then I would think the roller would make noise when coach is in motion! Had that problem with last coach, clip was omitted at factory and made a loud rattling against tile. Until it was found and fixed, I would cram a towel between sub floor and tile. Carl C.

So, I put a pedestal on the one I have and make a bird bath! $ 2,400!

A little late, but thank you all. My dog is 15 years old and has arthritis, she is on steroids and refuses to use a ramp (like some people I know) but I think the rubber would help. Carl C.

One is 2 May 2012, the other is 28 Dec 2014....on this page, just look for it. I don't remember witch one, but he did everything himself (first time) and I believe it came with pictures and very good details on hit and miss. Understand your situation and in awe of what you have already done....your way beyond my abilities and what I would even try! Happy travels Carl C.

I have a Traveler dish on roof of coach and got tired of Dish TV. Been told that if I want Direct TV, then I need to get a new traveler. Is that info correct or can I just buy Direct TV receivers and use my current set up? Wish Bill was still around! Carl C.

I'll get one in morning (not at house). When I lift carpet up all I see is a metal strip underneath for whole length of slide. Don't know the width but looks like aluminum! Herman, like nighthawk, your both on the forwarding address!

Perhaps it's my old age, but I get more and more "Salutes" now, than I did 10 years ago. I do not respond at all. Have no clue what their days like, PMS, or a gun in vehicle....seems there is a lot of "road rage" out there! I got a video camera on order for my dash. Carl

WOW, I love it !

cmarq, your an advanced member. We are just trying to be of help, nothing personal. What kind off flooring do you have now? Also, is the replacement floor the same height as current floor? If not, then you will have to adjust slide outs. We have members that are experts in flooring.... Good Luck.

Rich, lifted up what part of the rug that I could and it's concentrated by the sub floor. It's doing a job on my tile...6", then 4", then 1" 1/2 rest of way in. I'm going to clean it up, including tile & pull slide in then out & see what happens. nighthawk. If it's super mouse, I will give it a forwarding address! LOL
