However (D) involves a gear step up and thus some gear noise for some reason.Re: We were shocked to learn our newly purchased TTMy Lance has gas and electric. Both turn on inside.Re: LT tires on your TT? Let the fight beginI don't buy the stronger sidewall theory. You don't think a P or LT tire on a vehicle in a high speed turn has less side force? I think your answer is with the lawyer words on the sidewall----FOR TRAILER SERVICE ONLY! Also most failures are tread/lamination failures, not sidewall failures.Re: SURGING PROBLEM wolfe10 wrote: PaulJ2 wrote: Stim wrote: That sure sounds like Torque Converter Lock Up in and out. I have had GM Vehicles that you could feel when lock up occured and it felt like another gear shift. Something to try, when it is working normally, tap the brake pedal but don't push hard enough to apply the brakes, just enough to turn on the brake lights. That will cancel lock up and when you let go of the brake you should feel lock up again. Watch the tach to see if it is the same issue. I too believe it could be either a defective or missadjusted brake light switch, unlocking and relocking the torque converter. Would that also activate the brake lights? If so, either someone following you OR driving at night and seeing in the rear view camera if brake lights come on would be pretty easy diagnostics. Yes it may activate the brake lights, UNLESS---it has a separate set of contacts for converter unlock.Re: SURGING PROBLEM Stim wrote: That sure sounds like Torque Converter Lock Up in and out.

You may want to try a PTFE thread seal tape specifically formulated for propane something like THIS. They were leaking at a swivel joint near the threads but not at the threads themselves. The new ones were wrapped with the yellow tape on the threads when he handed them to me. So he did everything right i guess.Re: Pig tail propane tank connector hoses. rhagfo wrote: Take your old ones to your local Propane DEALER with a service department, and have them make you replacements. I have found that the hose they use is higher quality hose that remains flexible with age. The store bought ones seem to get stiff within a year. Cost is about the same as store bought. Bingo!! I found a local dealer here in town that made up a new set while i waited. Much better, no swivel joints at all. $10 per hose. Thanks all.Pig tail propane tank connector hoses.Walked by my trailer today and smelled propane. Checked and found both pig tail hoses from my propane tanks on the hitch were leaking. Both were leaking at the connections where the hoses thread into the regulator. At a swivel joint near the threaded connector but not the threads. One was leaking at both ends, there and also the swivel end near the tank end connector. These were both replaced two years ago for the same problem. My question: Does anyone make a brand that does not do this in a year or two? These are the hoses with the large green hand tight ends at the tank. Buy the way--found the problem by squirting soapy water on the connections.Re: Gm 2500HD GAS VS DIESEL Lantley wrote: kw/00 wrote: Glad you stated all the so called facts... but not one size fits all, for u I’m glad. For others it doesn’t work that way. It is what it is... diesels are not the cure all but neither is gas. Again, I don’t buy into all the facts.... different markets, lots of variables and tons of so called experts everywhere. The only advantage a gasser has over a diesel is cheaper initial cost. ALL other performance factors will favor diesel. I challenge you to point out a performance parameter that a gasser does better than a diesel. Starts and warms quicker on a freezing cold morning.Re: I think I'm stuck.Dealer should have repaired the window, give back your RV, then be reimbursed from the manufacturer.
