What did you do to your Class C MH today???

This is always a fun thread to watch in other forums, so I thought I'd start one here.

I replaced all the brake parts on the rear of my E450.
Rotors, Calipers and pads.
Bled the lines and it's good now.
Passenger side was metal to metal grinding the rotor to almost 1/2 its stock thickness.
Pep Boys had a 30% off online orders, saved me a bunch.

Three inches of rain here. So I went out in the rain and used dryer sheets to remove the bug splats. Very easy in the rain.

I also ordered a new Brake Buddy as the old one had a short in it. A short bad enough to melt the power connector over time.

I did an autopsy and man they sure have a lot on their logic board. Something smelt burnt. But nothing looked burnt.

Had to re-wire the trailer plug for my ATV trailer in the field.I found it easier to just cut the wires and re-wire it with a new 4-way plug rather than mess with the old one that worked one minute then not.



Atleast I got to finish my trip without any tickets.







Five Rhino loads to fill my sons HD2500....



I good week in the Class C with great scenery at 65-7000 feet.



The Onan 4K did not want to start/run right without manual adjusting at that altitude yet my Honda did.

bukhrn, water in the bowl is a good thing.:)

Yes it is, & I learned a lot, the job is not that hard,and the seal isn't what I thought it was.
I thought it was just a rubber O-ring, in fact it's a giant rubber washer.

Replaced the flush ball seal in the toilet, water actually stays in the bowl now. 😉

On a recent trip I discovered that fuel was spilling out from somewhere on the top of the gas tank when refueling. When using a jerry can there was no spillage. A little research on the net turned up a few instances where the fuel hose was deteriorating near the top close to where it is fitted to the tank, causing leaks when fuelling under pressure. Off to a local RV repair place where it was discovered that in my case it was the vent pipe that went bad. Today I got it back after coughing up 760 bucks. Replaced both the filler and the vent hoses, gasoline rated hoses are really expensive. The biggest chunk of the bill was for labour as the tank had to be dropped to access the old hose connections. Also had lube, oil and filter done.

Very timely post. I just discovered gas leaking from my tank/fill line the last time I filled the tank, yesterday. Haven't had it looked at yet.

Grandparents had to have the same done to their E450. I have issue's on occasion with mine.. don't know if it's the pump or something wrong with RV. Guess if it's not leaking won't worry about it!

It's in and it works... so quite and fast firing compared to my 1994 unit! Ha love it... going to be a long cold winter here in Mammoth.

Finished moving the bedroom TV from front BR wall to rear BR Wall. Re-routing cable was a slow process. Now I have to figure out how to cover the 3/4" hole left on the front wall-----------------maybe a blank plate?

We are headed out on our {4th}, annual northern California adventure on Monday {we like to depart on Labor day as everyone else is headed home}. Plan on being gone about a month and doing around 2,500 miles. Will visit friends in Nevada City/Grass Valley, relatives down the road in Penn Valley and attend my best friends daughters wedding out near Pt Reyes before heading back down the California coast.

Took the Nexus down the road to the local Jiffy Lube this morning and had them change the oil {7,000 miles and 10 months since the last change}, I always use pure synthetic and had them replace the original differential fluid {36,000 miles on the coach}, again with pure synthetic. Also had them drain, flush and replace the coolant. Five years of mostly southwest cruising takes its toll on coolant. Aired up the fronts to 60 and the rears to 65 and was good to go.

Using a couple of coupons and showing up early I was the first and only customer. With three guys working while I watched {supervised?}, they got it all done in about 40 minutes and was out the door for $265.

On the ride home I stopped at O'Reilly's auto parts and put in a new engine battery for the V-10. The old one at 5 years was the original and it was definitely time to replace. They had the original Motor Craft as a replacement for $156 with a nice long warranty {I replaced the two group 27 house batteries, also 5 years old last month}.

Can't wait to get back out on the open road for a good long trip. We plan on heading up through Flagstaff continuing on up to Jacob Lake for our first stop. Day two will find us west and north bound up into Utah where we will pick up "The loneliest road in America", highway 50, to cross Nevada. Day three will see us through Reno and up over the Donner Pass dropping down into Nevada City/Grass Valley where the fun really begins...

Took cover off. Getting it ready for a trip after Labor Day.

[klutchdust]

Cleaned out cupboards to rotate my soup collection, nothing planned for the next few weeks. Glad I did a scrub after last trip, the coach smells fresh and

clean and ready to go.
