- Navy_SmokerExplorerTried to get the refrigerator working on LP by checking all electric connections and votages, and cleaning around the burner, but failed. I can here the igniter firing but don't seem to be getting gas to the burner. I'll try to pull the burner tomorrow.
- 2doghomeExplorerPut eternabond tape on both sides of the front cab. Small leak on the right side, hope it is fixed, and preventive on the left.
- pianotunaNomad IIIHi,
I'm going to delve into the Boliy generator today to see if I can get the rotten thing to output some decent number of watts. - pianotunaNomad IIIHi,
I found out I can easily keep the water heater running on the electric setting via the alternator and solar panels. It uses less energy than the fridge. - pianotunaNomad IIIHi,
Clipped the wires going to the low oil light on the Boliy. It will now start--but the automatic throttle is apparently disabled with the low oil light is removed from the circuit. It does 122 volts with no load. Initially with 1152 watts of load (water heater) I got 108 volts--but after 30 minutes that had dropped to 88 volts.
In short it is a GSO (generator shaped object). - woodworker414ExplorerGood morning all, if you have read the thread that I started call LP DETECTOR, you know what is going with that.
Last weekend used Oxy-Clean, mixed a strong solution, sprayed in on the ceiling and let it soak for 30 minutes, had rented a rug shampoo machine from Home Depot,used the wand that is for use on furniture and cleaned the ceiling, then did the carpet on the floor. Both came out real nice, have to come up with a trick to color the little bit of stain on the ceiling to blend in with the rest, maybe a mixture of different color sidewalk chalk, or something like that. Had the son in law get on the roof to check the caulk up there, when we bought this unit one of the Maxx Air covers was gone, so installed a new one of those. Will be checking the air pressure in the tires shortly. Was looking at the drain valve of the water heater, want to get one of those electric plug units, which electric do you all use. While I had that opened I saw a wasp nest, out it came, so then I turn on the LP tank and started the water heater for a brief time and the furnace to make sure some critter had not built a home in there, I try to remember to do that every month. I just love messing with the C.

Sorry for the double post, I guess I hit the button 2 X's. Better get another cup of java, to wake up. - woodworker414ExplorerGood morning all, if you have read the thread that I started call LP DETECTOR, you know what is going with that.

AS you go to the next page you will see that I did a double post, I am sorry, must still be half asleep. - pianotunaNomad IIIHi,
Drove it into Calgary and found out the Boliy generator *again* will not start. - applegaterExplorerLoaned our new Serenity II to our local Mercedes dealer. They are advertising the addition of the Sprinter Line at the local Fair, didn't have any sprinters in stock, and since I am recovering from surgery to repair a severed tendon and can't use the Serenity for a while it is now featured along with four other new Mercedes cars in their display.

Cleaned the inside after a week long trip to the Texas gulf coast that included highlights such as a 6 foot black snake, several attacks by fire ants, above ankle water at most campgrounds we stayed, alligators by the side of the road and a full size pickup truck who was in front of us one moment and the next lost control and spun and spun and then came racing back towards us until he got stuck in the mud.
This was our first trip in our new to us Minnie and I was the designated driver, since my husband just had knee replacement surgery. I told my husband that I driving the rig is really the least of my worries from now on. I added fire ant killer, rain boots, anti itch creams and weapons to my must have inventory list.
You might want to add wasp spray.. We have opened several power boxes that have wasp nest in them.
