Hi,

I thought the V-10 started in 1999? Is it an E 350 (not 360)?

I did belts and hoses on mine as soon as I got it, too. You may wish to add getting the brake fluid replaced.

Our first Class C MH was a 1997 E350 V10 and the first year for the Ford F53 V10 (Class A) was 1999.

Installed a new vent and cover at the bathroom arear. Tomorrow I finish sealing it and wire up the fan/light that are built into the vent.

"Do you have the amplifier for the antenna turned on?"...yes there's a little green indicator light on the plug-in....

There's 2 semi-easy ways I have for Next Step:
1) move RV to where the house cable can reach and screw the cable physically in to the RV circuit;

2) since we do live in a sort of Electronic Sargosso Sea, I can drive the RV to where the Tech Guy found the signals, and try around the area a bit.

Every time I read the manual & fiddle with it, I make it a little closer to the end of the chapter on the set up.

So far I can run the radio, play the CD. Big steps, gents. It's odd, as I get sort of mesmerized, and enjoy just sitting there without any signal interrupting my nap time.....

Been neglecting the generator so we ran it for a couple of hours today. Last month we had a tow/brake system installed for the Honda CRV. Now if we could just get some warmer weather!

I have been ordering upgrades and stacking them since winter started to install this spring in our new to us 1998 Four Winds 5000 23rk V-10 E-350 with 36K. Upgrades:Kenwood radio with XM, backup camera, converter upgrade form Parallax to Progressive Dynamics. Next to order high-profile toilet, then hoses and belt replacement, then shocks and alignment. Since it is new to us we want a fresh start to a 15 year old chassis.

Ours had a system in it new.. still has the surround sound speakers in the ceiling. The first owner thought it was good enough for home use I guess. Ours will be fairly simple to use. Do you have the amplifier for the antenna turned on?

re: " Would like to put in a DVD and sound system not sure if I'll mess with at this point. "

we've got a first rate system the prior owner installed but having trouble figuring out how to run it....

went to a local TV repair shop & he got channels to show just fine, back home it's on "no signal" again.

In spite of reading the instruction manual I continue to remain befuddled with 3 remotes & various peripherals.

Considering generally we always used to dry-camp, even having shore power was luxury. Now on board 4KW real luxury. At lease we figured out how to run the coffee maker!

Let's see in the last couple days..
-Washed it really good and gave it a good rinse underneath.. hopefully get rid of all the salt!
-Changed to oil to Pennzoil Ultra 5w30 and PF61E
-Drained the refilled the radiator.. no drain plug go figure!
-Moved the back fold up table for the tv up to the kitchen area.
-Ordered the TV mount.. should get that done this weekend. It'll take longer on the wire management than the mount. Would like to put in a DVD and sound system not sure if I'll mess with at this point.

Looking at putting up a coat rack and more towel racks in the rear. Ready to go back to work for a break!

Added sea foam, fill up with gas and drove around and ran generator under load for about an hour. Also making some 2 x 12 blocks drive up on while stored outside. I plan to start and drive regularly during winter.
