- magik235ExplorerI converted the air conditioning system from R12 to R134. Retro kits are now legal in Wisconsin. It was too cold to charge it completely as the pressure chart didn't have a low enough temperature listed. The kit I bought from Napa was remarkably simple. Then I started replacing the bolts in my wheel covers because the allen bolt heads are stripped out. This took way longer than anticipated. It is extremely difficult to remove the existing bolts but it is better to do it in the driveway than on the road.
- W4MBGExplorerdrove it back home from DC. had a great weekend. nothing broke!
- tenbearExplorerI made a shelf for the old CRT cabinet. It will hold, among other things, cereal boxes on edge. If anyone else is planning on doing this, make a shelf out of cardboard to make sure it fits before making the wooden shelf, the cabinet was way out of square.
Also finished work on a hanging shelf for the DVD player. It goes on the bottom of the above cabinet. - David_RExplorerDe-winterized, cleaned a birds nest out of the a/c shroud, and puzzled over the lack of power output from the generator to my coach. My TO DO list is much longer than my DONE list.
- magik235ExplorerI cleaned the bathroom and decided where I am going to mount my TV.
- magik235ExplorerI installed the new heater core and new heater hoses. Then I started to clean up my stinky antifreeze everywhere mess.
- magik235ExplorerI cut an access hole in my heater box then removed the heater core. I had to drive into town for a new heater core so installation will have to wait until tomorrow. I had extra keys made for the RV as long as I was in town.
- W4MBGExplorerprepped it for a quick trip. de-winterized the water system. fixed a very small LP gas leak. tested all the appliances. gave her a bath.
- snowdanceExplorerI installed a Charge Wizard on my Progressive Dynamics converter. It will keep the batterys charged but not over charge and cook them. Was surprised to find they make one does not cost to much and was a simple plug in install.. Guess some times a bit of research and reading does some good..
- magik235ExplorerI started taking my climate control box apart until I realized I would have to take the entire dash apart to remove it. My heater core is leaking. I drilled 2 inspection holes and am debating cutting an access hole in the front of the box. I extended my exhaust pipe 2 inches. I mounted the reinforcement brackets to my entry step. I checked the tire pressure on all my new tires to make sure they are holding air.
