What happens when you DO NOT pull back on the control stick?

Yes the rear wheels are locked by the spring brakes, the front wheels roll forward about 4" on my Spartan chassis when air is dumped. It was annoying at first because I placed the jack pads first, the coach would roll forward, then I'd have to re-position the jack pads. Now jack pads are after dumping air which makes positioning them more difficult to see because my coach is 5" above the ground then. I agree, auto-correct is a pain in the __, It took me several hours to figure out how to disable auto-correct in my browser when all I had to do was search for a Utube video showing how, #%$^.

My black stubby antenna (3) are for the dash radio(above driver seat), bedroom radio(LR roof) and basement entertainment radio(above passenger seat) all are AM/FM/CD type. My Winnebago-installed SST base-loaded CB antenna is above driver, has a knurled wheel at the base for tuning. The dash radio also controls a 10-CD automatic changer with Bose surround-sound.

X2! When I was in high school we used a 2 X100# tank setup for the kitchen stove. It was my job to load the empty in dad's pickup and unload it when he returned from the propane retailer. In the beginning it was a hard lesson in leverage and balance The RV park where we used to winter had an LP truck that refilled DOT cylinders and ASME tanks. Those using 100# cylinders were refilled in-place; he had a compartment full of adapters.

Now there is a shortage of foam used to make seats , mattress', etc. the recent storms wrecked production facilities in AL. and GA.

Quoting a line from a John Wayne movie, " It's a man-size task we have ahead of us men".(After being told to dispose of 3 kegs of whiskey)

He already has to 100# external tanks. He already has 2 100# external tanks. He now has 3 choices, contact his LP supplier and have a 250 gallon tank set or find a different on-site retail distributor, or continue his present routine.

Download it from the Ford website.https://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/Catalog/owner_information/2019-Lincoln-Nautilus-Owners-Manual-version-3_om_EN-US_03_2019.pdf It states on page 277, Quote:"Recreational Towing, You cannot recreational tow your vehicle with all wheels on the ground because vehicle or transmission damage may occur.We recommend towing your vehicle with all four wheels off the ground such as when using a car-hauling trailer. Otherwise, you cannot recreational tow your vehicle." I'm sorry to bear the bad news to you both.

Opps, I forgot about inflation. It used to be "1,000 words".

Assuming you have retained copies of all correspondence, receipts, work orders and your Dometic extended warranty. Were I in this position I would write/email Dometic informing them you have been quite patient but now they are leaving you no recourse other than small claims court.

The firs step is to have the LP gas pressure checked, i should be 10.5-11" water column with a stovetop burner on. After that water column test confirms low pressure they will test the regulator, which may be replaced without emptying the ASME tank. reference: https://www.warehouseappliance.com/blog/how-to-test-gas-pressure/ I would not construct that manometer, instead I would rent a digital manometer for 1/2 day, I merely posted it to confirm approved LP gas pressure downstream of the regulator. FWIW an LP supplier will not pump out your onboard tank due to liability concerns plus the possibility of contaminating their large storage tank. My long-time LP supplier for our home told me to park the MH away from buildings and open the overflow(spitter) valve, allowing the LP to vent to atmosphere. (mine took about 12 hrs to vent approx. 8 gallons)

Winnebago and Newmar has a 2-yr backlog on orders; this is only one reason: https://rv-pro.com/news/winter-storms-in-gulf-coast-states-impacting-rv-production/

Wayne it means you have an engine with that crazy expensive EPA emissions stuff.

I'll second that! Perhaps the only difference is it requires more driving time to completely get a diesel engine up to normal operating temperature, and it will never reach normal operating temperature at low idle per Cummins.

I think I understand after viewing your pictures. You have a flow-thru valve cap on a standard valve stem. It will unscrew to expose the standard size threads and standard valve core.. Think of it as a really short valve extension. Remove that flow-through stem cap and you should be able to screw on a standard metal valve cap or a pressure sensor. Matter of fact I have those on my sensors on inner duals too now that I know what we're discussing. That explains why your standard air gauge fits, only the threads are larger as it is not designed to accept a metal valve cap because it is designed to be both a short extension and valve cap combined. (it has its own rod inside to depress the original valve core in the stem). Kay is right, the large rubber grommet is there to stabilize the long original valve stem.

I highly suspect the person who replaced the batteries did not re-install the cables and wiring correctly. Hopefully you took a picture of y our battery wiring before disconnecting anything. Does the genset function properly? I've never heard of having to remove a genset simply to service it unless you had the drive belt, thermostat replaced, etc.

If he truly has special rims for the large bore valve stems he cannot simply have the stems replaced. The .812" /7/8"rim hole is too large to safely use a standard metal valve stem. It's either use those adapters or replace rims. I'd really like to see a picture of his present stems. Richard's thought of only 2 special rims not making sense is logical.

Well, I learned something new today. Obviously I'm not too old to learn. Turns out there is a large bore valve stem and valve core. Does your valve stem look like those pictures? The good news is this company sells large bore to standard bore adapters.https://tiresupplynetwork.com/search?type=product,page,article&q=large bore valve stem* NAPA sells them too. The hole in the rim is .8125"

.I just spoke with the owner of the largest HDT repair shop in the area. He said all valve stems have the same threads and O.D. Only the base of valve stems are the two different sizes Wayne listed. This means either the stem has been deformed or threads ruined. Reference: https://www.coyoteaccessories.com/valve-stems?p=3 Quote: " Valve Stem Sizes Depending on the application, valve stems holes in wheels will be typically 0.453” for cars / light duty trucks and 0.625” for heavy duty / commercial truck applications. Based on application, valve stems are available to fit 0.453” or 0.625” holes. Some clamp in models are configured to work in either size hole by simply changing the supplied grommet to different size.

I never heard of an oversize valve stem. Are you sure there isn't an adapter screwed onto the inner stems, or they may have became slightly bent. Does a standard metal valve cap screw on OK? Have you tested those sensors on different stems? That's all I have to offer.

I too welcome you to the FMCA discussion forums! FWIW, a couple of years ago the local HDT repair shop I patronize had a MH(can't remember brand) in for smart-wheel issues. I noticed the right front fender was off the MH and inquired why. The shop owner explained the smart-wheel was not functioning properly and the technician had located the source of the problems in the electrical fitting that goes through the firewall just inside the right front tire. That fitting had about 30 pins in it-wires removed, all pins and wire ends were green with corrosion. They were deciding whether an attempt at cleaning would work or simply buy a new fitting and repair or replace that wiring harness. Hope that sparks some ideas for your MH.

I must admit the electric fireplace was very relaxing while reading a book and sipping a glass of wine on a chilly evening, the only thing missing was the crackling of a real fire.. The one in the master bedroom was in DW's words "quite romantic". Today's models are vastly improved over 2005 models. I think they are only about 4" deep and have blower motors to move heat.

I agree, your EWAG is right, although .the electric fireplaces in our last 5er were recalled because they caught fire in the base remote module (inline) that is near the plug due to lack of insulation and inadequate wire size. I do not remember the brand, that was in 2008.

Yep, I suspect it cost as much to build as the motorcycle cost. The website I got that from said it was for beer, but that would be a lot of weight to tow with that motorcycle. Perhaps it carries a couple of kegs with taps behind a door somewhere? One keg of beer(15.5G) is 130# net weight, so I suspect your are correct. Sure wouldn't want those trailer brakes to fail with it full of beer and me on 2 wheels.
