Mostly to use for recharging the batteries. So very light load.
There are a few days I will need to run AC - I have 2 2000 w generators that can run in parallel
Thanks
In final stages of shaking down recently acquired 2010 Coachmen Clipper pop-up. A week or so ago I successfully fired up the water heater -- gas-only Suburban, SIT-610 Ac3 -- but because the bypass valves were set wrong, didn't get any hot water to the sink. Couldn't access those valves; they're...
I almost hesitate to post this as it's an age old discussion- gas vs. diesel. I've towed a lot and have spent the last 10 years in > 42' fifth wheels. Now that we aren't fulltiming, we're talking about getting something a little more nimble.
At the moment, we're kicking around the idea of a...
When we use the propane stove in our Rockwood A122s there is a stronger gas smell well after the stove is lit than I would expect. Note, our flame is ready before we turn the stove on to light it. We keep a few windows open when we use it. Eventually the smells goes away, but seems odd.
Anyone...
East coast fuel shortage?
Anybody on the road can comment on the current fuel situation?
We're leaving the Tampa Bay area Wednesday AM returning to MD, up the I-95 corridor.
No problems at all getting fuel in the Tampa area, but there are reports of big fuel problems in Pensacola and...
Shower drain started to leak. Determined that putty/sealant/gaskets for the drain next to the shower floor (pan) had failed. I mention all those things since they are all present. In addition to a black, flexible gasket, I see what looks likes a cardboard one. A spacer? They used a...
My refrigerator has stopped working on 110 shore power. It runs fine on gas. I have 110v at the plug. Have 110v across the glass fuse. Was able to determine that there is 110v to one side of the element (but did not check other side). Any thoughts?
Folks. Need some motor heads. I took out our SunSeeker from storage and was doing oil change. I began to loosen the pan bolt and about two turn in a few drops of clear water fell from the bolt area. My first thoughts were “oh no” did we blow a head gasket? Then got the bolt out and oil...
I have a Nexgrill #820-0033 2-Burner Portable Propane Gas Table Top Grill and was trying to hook it up to my RV LP quick disconnect bypassing the grill regulator. I have tested it and it seems to work just fine. Just wanted to make sure I was not in danger. If so can you explain how and why?
Fuel mileage (gas vs diesel question)
Not sure if this is the right spot for this (mods move/delete if need be).
Also, not exactly RV related, but applicable.
I’ve gone on two, 2500 mile round trips with my 7x16 enclosed trailer (2020 Arising. Pulling with my 2015 Ram 1500 5.7L Crew cab...
I’ve owned mostly all diesel trucks since 2000 when I got my drivers license
I used diesel trucks for my landscaping business because it made sense. Up until the last 10 years they were fairly easy to work on. Now my newest truck is a 2012 ram 3500 and it has nickel and dimed me for the last 2...
Hello, my fridge/freezer stop working on gas mode. Yesterday one gas tank went empty switched over to the 2nd one. and could not get fridge/freezer to work on gas. It was making the little noise like it was working but, still after 6 hours was not getting any colder. I know it takes about 8...
Have a new Isata 5 28ss with 3962, 120V and Propane reefer.
Refrigerator works well on 120V.
On gas, it quickly ends up with the temp / LP flashing, indicating LP gas lockout error.
On LP, the flame immediately lights, but the ignitor keeps running continuous ignition cycles until the error...
While doing a system check for an upcoming trip, I discovered that the gas part of the Dometic fridge wasn't working. After determining that all the other gas elements worked fine, I figured that the fridge was the problem. When I put it on gas, I could hear the igniter and hear the gas...
This is a rudimentary question I know, but I have been looking on line everywhere and can’t get my question answered. I even went to camping world to seek help and they were not helpful at all, saying they couldn’t look up parts by make and model. (Is this true?)
I have 2005 Forest River...
On my Coachman Apex 2018, I had issues with my SAFE-T-Alert detector, it didn't want to reset and seemed to keep going off even with propane and gas off, the red light was coming on under CO, it says Replace by 60 months, could it already be bad? Thanks for your help!
I have a gasoline smell coming from the generator area of my Class C 2018 Forester 3011 DS. There is no wet spots from gasoline leaking under the generator, or anywhere else, but I can smell gasoline. Any ideas what to check?
I need a source for a replacement window gasket. I'm searching online but hoping one of you can get me there faster.
Pictured is the kitchen window on my 21SS. The top half is stationary and the bottom tilts out. One piece has shrunk about an inch on both sides which I assume is letting...
I have a question about gas mileage. We have a 18 f150 with the 5.0v8 and factory tow package. We just recently purchased a new 21 Grey Wolf 26dbh. I am just curious as to what kind of gas mileage to expect when towing. Our camper is about 7000lbs. fully loaded and just under 32ft long. Just...
Outer window seems to have pulled loose from it's frame/inner window. Looks like the gasket pulled loose at the bottom. Anyone have a fix for this, or a resource? 3250 Cardinal. Thanks in advance.
I would like fellow FR3 owners to respond to this Tread regarding the average MPG you get with your rig. My rig is a 2020 34DS and I just finally got all the tires properly inflated upon installation of steel valve stem extension and looking forward to getting back on the road. My previous...
Member gastan disappeared from forum after 05-19-2020, was a member for 7 years before that. He was a great guy, custom made me a mirror mount for my backup camera monitor.
Anybody know what happened to him? He was getting up there in years, but didn't sound like he was ripe for the reaper...
Hi folks,
I'm narrowing down my camper choices to one of the xPro 19FD models and want current owner input on the 2-way gas/electric fridge experience. We do a fair amount of boon docking/dry camping and I'm wondering what your experience has been when doing so, meaning, running in "gas" mode...
