RE: Question about nu-way

Were on our 2nd one and love it. Went to Alaska in our 03 with no problem at all. Last year we went cross country with our 09 and had one miner problem, the ac gasket leaked, got it fixed in Pa. As good a unit as any out there.

RE: New Tires

I bought 4 new Bridgestones "E" rated last summer. I put on about 7000 mi. going cross country and back to MA in the fall with no problem. They had a build date of no more than 6 months old. Be careful when you buy new tires, they can already be 2 yrs old or older.

RE: Rubber roof stains

I clean my roof 1or 2 times a year. In the spring for sure. If you don't clean it at all the dirt will run down the sides and makes a mess.

RE: Stove element won't spark

We had the same problem on the front burner, the ignighter was cracked and the spark was going out the back side and not out the front to light the burner. Easy fix and the part was cheap. We had to go to an RV dealer, but not every one has it.

RE: 8 new injectors

I changed the oil about 2 weeks ago useing Mobil Delvac Diesel 15W-40 grade oil. API Service CJ-4. I have used that for years. Today I went to a Ford dealer and got some 10W-30 Motorcraft Diesel oil. I'm going to change the oil again because the book says Temp below 30o you should use the 10W-30. Hope I did the right thing.

RE: 8 new injectors

Thanks for all your help. I am limited in what I can do. I can change the oil and filter, at 5000 mi, I can change both fuel filters at 15000 mi. and I can fill windshield washer fluid....
Should I be useing 10w30 oil with temp down below 20 lots of nights. Also does the oil have to say Diesel Oil.

RE: 8 new injectors

Thanks for all the info. I use Motorcraf oil filters and Motorcraf fuel filters. I change the oil every 5000 mi and fuel filter 15000, that's what the book says. I have been buying the filters on line and not from Ford dealer. They are Motorcraf filters come in a Motorcraf box. Maybe I should be useing 10W30 in the winter rather than 15W40. On this last short trip 200mi. fuel mileage was the best I ever had 19.8.

8 new injectors

My 05 Ford with 135,500 mi, the Ford dealer said I needed 2 new injectors so it would be advisable to replace them all wild the engine was apart. On our trip out west a got some Bio Diesel And that may have caused my problem. How many miles are injectors good for? I drove it today 200 mil. and it ran great. I guess I should keep it.

RE: Finally found my water leak!!

We always shut the water off at the post whenever we leave the Tr. Came back to the Tr. one day and the one next to ours had a flood water was pouring out of the basement. I did shut it off for them. Cheap insurance shut it off at the post. You do forget to put it back on sometime but it's better than a flood.

RE: Ford Deisel

NewsW
When I picked up diesel at Flying J today on the pump it said BioMass added to fuel like 5% to 20% or something like that. This morning the truck ran like a top for 98mi. then I had a few skips and a few more times later in the day. Climing the hills in Penn today it ran great. Only about 700 mi to and I'll be home. I have some POWER SERVICE DIESEL SUPPLEMENT I will add in the morning before I hit the road. Thanks for your help...

Ford Deisel

I've been on a cross country trip, with a 05 Ford Diesel with 135,000 mi. It was runing great until 2or 3 days ago now It seems to buck or skip now and then. The check engine light has not come at all and I did drain the under frame fuel filter and no water at all. Does any one know what could be the cause? Thanks
