Well I'm glad that we have about exausted the mileage debate. It seems that we all get fairly good mileage from our Chevy Based RVs.
Compared to the Fords.
When it makes a a large differance in the amount you spend, such as Scroller that is using it as a business and the savings help his bottom line, that is GREAT.
So on to the next subject.I asked in the beginning if there were any problems with a Chevy Based RV.Well I have had one and I wonder if anyone has had the same thing.
The check engine light came on and I hooked my little annelizer to it and came up with this code.
P0122 throttle/pedal position sensor switch a low.
I asked a friend that is an ASE certified Chevy mechanic about it,and his answer was to take off the air intake and clean the throttle body to get out the soot,there was some in there,and I used carb cleaner to clean it,and the contacts. I did and all the symptions that it caused went away.
Now here is my question,has anyone else had this happen and if so, what did they do?
Thanks.
