97 Ford 460 issues
I have a 97 Fleetwood pace arrow vision on the Ford F53 chassis with the 460 v8 gas engine. 33k miles on rig. New aluminum 80 gallon fuel tank and FoMoCo sourced fuel pump. After driving for roughly 2 hours I lose power and can't get over 2k rpms without the engine bucking and shaking, if I continue the check engine light will come on. If I shut off the engine for a minute or more all is normal again after restart though for how long varies. I did have a problem with the distributer bolt being loose and the timing getting messed up which I set as well as I could as due to the design of the dog house I can't get anywhere near seeing the timing marks without putting my face into a spinning fan blade. If anyone has a suggestion on how to fix that issue also I'd appreciate it. Oh before anyone asks the rig is OBD1 even though it's a 97 so pulling a code without the check engine light on doesn't work
Can’t remove AC cover for maintenance
The screws that hold the AC cover on—I can’t get one out. When I try to remove it, the female threads, which are under the AC cover, spin along with the screw. Tried penetrating oil, pulling up on the AC cover, and putting a piece of wire under the screw head and pulling up. Before I grind off the screw head to the the AC cover off to oil fan and general cleaning, does anyone have any better ideas to get that one screw out?
Trucks or Buses Left Lane Only. Does that mean me?
Am I breaking any laws by not moving left? I was driving my motorhome through the construction zone cattle chutes this morning when I saw the sign: "Trucks and Buses Left Lane Only". Since the exit was in a few miles anyway, I stayed in the right lane because, in heavy bumper-to-bumper traffic, it is tough moving from the left lane. My motorhome is not registered as a truck nor a bus, but it is just as big. Has anyone got nabbed for staying right?1996 Damon Intruder engine temp question
Hello everyone! I am curious what is normal for the temperature gauge to read on this Damon Intruder. It has the Ford 460 engine. The temp gauge show L (NORMAL) H. The gauge will set on the M or A going down the highway at 70. I have been told that is to hot and that is should set closer to the O. Any thoughts on this? I do have e a couple videos I could send if need be but not sure how to add them here.
Chassis batteries not charging
I have a 2006 Tiffin Allegro Bay 38TDB Freightliner 26000. I currently have a TrippLite inverter/charger and have been plugged in to shore power constantly for over a year. I had to replace the 3 year old house batteries a couple of months ago due to the 12v system going down several times. Before the haters start hating please know that I never contemplated owning much less living in an RV. I got cancer and lost my home in 23 and was forced into this life. I am mechanically inclined and most of the repairs I have had to do myself as I now live on disability. Mechanic's daughter. I start the coach every once in awhile as I feel that it's necessary to let the fluids flow periodically in any engine. Yesterday, I went to start it since I'm moving to a different location and when I turn the key....nothing. That is the first time it hasn't started.Attempted to disconnect the series (2 6v deep cycles wires in a series) to charge them individually, and the charger won't charge. My voltmeter read 4.7 in each 6v. Help!?!? I don't know what to do now. Please be kind and helpful. I don't need negative comments. Thank you in advance for any help offered.Question about Freedom 458 Inverter
Hi, I have a 2003 Allegro Bus 35IP. It has the Xantrex 458 Charger/Inverter option. I may need to replace the Xantrex and I am trying to figure out some of the factory wiring, specifically regarding the output from the inverter. There appear to be 2 AC circuits (2 20 AMP romex wires) coming out of the Xantrex inverter. I cannot determine where these are fused or how they tie into the primary 120v system. The main 120v Fuse panel has no current through it when the inverter is on (makes sense as to not backfeed the inverter) - yet all the branches work and have power. So really I have two questions: Are there fuses for the 2 output circuts from the inverter, if so where are they located? How does the inverter outputs tie into the 120v system without energizing the main 120v fuse panel?2012 Phaeton Random Ding
We just purchased a 2012 40ft Phaeton with just under 70k miles. It dings an alert randomly, with no warning or light indicating the issue. Everything looks fine on the dash. The ding plays over the music (dimming music when it alerts) so we can’t find where it’s coming from. Everything is working properly, seatbelts clasped, awnings tight, etc. Only dings when driving, not at idle. Any thoughts?
