How did you get your crowfoot plus extension through the holes in the wheel? And how did you turn the extension. I’m not doubting you, but I’m having a mental block on how this would work.
(I lost a valve nut last year, so I’d like to double check them all but they are impossible to get to except for the two outer duals.)

Greg, I have 15 sites reserved at American RV Resort and am still trying to get sites on the Balloon Fiesta grounds (first 15 to have signed up have a site there) If you want sign up for a site on the Balloon Fiesta site feel free to do so, but if you get a Fiesta site, please let me know so I can release your American site to someone on the waiting list. I do not expect any changes from the Fiesta group until June when the refund deadline expires, but sometimes I fall into good luck, so there is always a chance.

BTom, and Full time Bill, you are both on the waiting list.

It is also possible the air source for the accessory pressure gauge is leaking.

Well Done!

Sometimes Mother Nature provides us with less than 15% relative humidity, winds of 5-15 mph along with 80 degree plus temperatures. In those conditions I can’t even wet down one side of the coach, front to rear, without the front drying by the time I get to wetting down the rear. I could run up and down the ladder (imagine that!) and still not get to dry it before Mother Nature dries it for me.
I’m not complaining…just explaining!

Ahh good, the word “tech” gives me attitude for which I know no prescription.

Engine speed has not changed. Belt looks new on front with nothing loose. Checked wiring, neutral connections and fuse. Voltage regulator would not adjust from trim pot. Got new one on order. Regulator is Basler AV63-4 @ $84. Also Kubota dealer will check monday for thermostat. Thinking NAPA may have it cheaper. Thankful Gen is on slideout rails. This could be a beast to get out.
When all is installed I`ll update.

Yes, the operative word is “yet”. It will soon be his I bet.

I will check into the new Freon! Trying to get everything ready for the road this fall and beat the frozen tundra is a chore but saves down time on the road. It sure helps with the advice of everyone on the forum.
Thanks All

And, You and Becky were missed in Petoskey.

They were completely out. Now that I have new ones in, they are dim but at least I can tell what is going on.

frenchies,
Might want the machine shop to check for cracks, magnafluxing is the old procedure. Don’t know what new technology may be out there.
I too experience a boost loss. Mine turned out to be a simple change of the fuel filter. That was on a trip to/from OKC. I stopped at Prevost Nashville and they focused on the turbo tubes as being the source of the problem. After a couple of hours of hammer applications and reassembly a test run was made up I-24. It seemed to be fixed. The next morning as I entered I-24 south toward Nashville going up the on ramp the engine would not develop boost. I limped home slowly and with a substantially lightened wallet after paying Prevost for the non-repair.
I got home, changed the primary and secondary fuel filters and the problem went away. So I agree, the best mechanic is you, if you have some degree of knowledge on how a diesel or gasoline engine works.

The Hunter Douglas store in Lawton should be able to program or replace what you need. I have used a store local to me and they were very helpful. Their website lists Brady’s Design Center in Lawton and a “Gallery” store in OKC. Many places sell Hunter Douglas but their stores stock parts.

A ten second search on Google brought up the manual which should answer all your questions.
