Re: Repairing fuel station pump
mine does this every so often, pump turns but no fuel coming out. these are gear type pumps so they are positive displacement pumps, but positive displacement pumps NEED fluid to seal them. pull the gears and lube them up, oil, grease I use antisieze and the pump always works after. something has to lube the moving parts and if there is now fluid there is no lube, so loosening the cover only allows the gears to move around more freely but there has to be a lubricate in there, aka a fluid.548Views0likes0CommentsRe: Rubber roof pulled out from side...
If you can turn a screwdriver, pull back the center cover/filler material, back the gutter screws out a bit, pry the gutter back a bit and push the roof rubber down, retighten and open a beer. If its under warranty ignore above and drop off. Either way, no big deal and is a quick fix.233Views0likes0CommentsRe: landing gear dual motors

I don't have to carry blocks to level, since each is independantly wired, which makes side to side leveling much easier. I don't every listen to my landing gear strain like they used to either. Actually yes, when I bought it while waiting for the PO to get the batteries, I cranked it up (and down) to hook it up. Not that hard, just a slow process. Ok? glad you got to experience that.:?367Views0likes0CommentsRe: landing gear dual motors

honestly, for powering the fridge its kinda pointless as the fridge cycles with demand and you would have to run genny around that. Better to run it off gas. I had a yami 1000 and it weighted in at 25lbs, held .6 gallons of gas and would run about 12 hours and charge my batteries, and is plenty of juice to power most newer tvs, LED/LCD. Also was great to start up on cold nights when furnace was off and on, my batteries would be chagred in the a.m.362Views0likes0CommentsRe: Hauler for couple

Not for everyone, but if your interested send me a PM and I can give you a few details. My weights on the truck and trailer came out great by the way. Mod Edit: Adjusted photo to comply with the 640 pixel guidelines. When posting pictures in the future please use the Yellow Image icon in the tool bar, paste your photos URL link in the appropriate box and type in 640 in the width box (leave height blank). Thanks I like that set up. Was thinking a big tongue tow trailer and just put the quad in the bed of the truck, but that over quad rig and big ol 5ver is nice.292Views0likes0CommentsRe: Help, fresh water won't fill all the way
I use a piece of hose ( 3 foot white fill hose with female end still on) that I attach to my garden hose that is small in diameter then the fill connection and that got rid of my problem, turns out I was putting in more water then my vent would vent. Have you tried filling it slowly. My vent is a 1/4" fitting with same size hose on it and was using a 5/8 garden hose that sealed off (almost) when shoved in the fill, so using a hose that was smaller allowed air to vent out at the same time.479Views0likes0Comments
