Air conditioner leaks
All of a sudden my Coleman Chillgrille AC decides to start dripping. I took the return air vent off and noticed a metal frame inside that water was dripping from. Upon further investigation, I felt on top of the contoured metal frame and noticed it was full of water. Am I clogged somewhere, how do I unclog, or is something else wrong. Its getting hot and I need halp. Thanks.978Views0likes3CommentsRe: Trailer Tire wear
I'm sorry...I meant 80 lbs pressure as noted on the sidewall. OK ya'll. I remember when we first got the trailer we assumed it came with the correct pressure. The two trips we took, we never checked as it was shortly after our purchase. A year later when we went to the dealer for some repairs and upgrades I noticed the tires were at 45 to 55lbs. I immediately got them up to 80. I imaging the early miles at low inflation did the damage. Learning the hard way...thanks.427Views0likes0CommentsRe: Trailer Tire wear
Chuck&Gail wrote: Did you ever actually WEIGH your TT fully loaded? Classis symtom of overloaded tires. Are they the size listed on the plate on the TT sidewall? Are they inflated to the sidewall max pressure? Yes, we had the trailer weighed. It was a about 200 lbs overweight and the pressure has been at 80. On earlier trips we may have had less but when we went full time we checked.427Views0likes0CommentsTire problems
Bought a 2010 Jayco 35 ft 5th wheel in 2011. Went on a couple of short trips (10 to 500 miles round trip). Lived in the trailer for a year in our yard. Began fulltiming in Feb. Got 800 miles and one of the tires separated, with the center of the tread coming out. Had it replaced, drove another 100 miles and had the other one on the same side go flat. Drove another 400 miles and now see a large bulge in one area of the tread on the other side. Have kept tires at 80 psi as our load is max but not over. The tires are GoodYear Marathon ST235/80R16 with an E load rating. Tread looks fine and the tires were manufactured in 2010. Real disappointed with GoodYear. Is this common or have I done something wrong? Sitting in one place too long?6.3KViews0likes38Comments
