RE: dumping gray water in forest

Actually, all dumping is illegal it's just some don't care what they do or when and how they do it. For some of us we follow the rules.
What should a tent camper do with their grey water? Drink it?

RE: Firestone Tires

TransForce have very flexible side wall. They are not stiff. Gives a soft ride. Side wall needs a lot of strength for handling. Not there in transforce.

RE: ANTENNA TEK

Reception is the same, but they use cheaper plastic on the components, so the crank mechanism is not as dependable as Winegard. Doug
Yes I know. The handle gets loose and comes off. Not good!

RE: Failed Smog Test

Not a lot of people here with a FORD 460 motor in a motorhome. Seems like everybody I know with a 460 motor in something has problems with the carb. The original can't be replace, so something else has to used. You might have to go to a smog repair shop to have it tuned or de-tuned for smog. If you start changing the vacuum valves or jets, you could easily get too lean causing more problems. New standards for older motors do not help your motor at all. Good luck.

I have an Antenna Tek TV antenna. Appears to be a copy of Winegard. Are they any good?

RE: Trying to find our Battery disconnect Switch.

The EMERGENCY brake HAS TO BE set before the slides and the step work! Try it! How do you know you have the optional battery switch?

RE: E450 handeling problems

Hi all new to the forum My wife and I are looking forward to traveling in our 2004 jayco granit ridge motor home. I have a problem with the handeling. we have put on new firestone tires new shocks had the front end checked but it still seems to be all over the road. I have had people tell me get used to it but I don't think it is right has any one had the same problem thank you denny and ida NEW TO THE RV LIFE
What kind of Firestone tires did you put on? Just saying you put on new Firestones means nothing. I didn't think Firestone made any Rib tires that where suitable for a class C motorhome. What kind of Firestones?

RE: What the heck is this

Your construction buddy is wrong. RVs are not the same as what he constructs. Go to an RV repair place for advice, not someone whom doesn't have an RV nor knows anything about them.
I still new he was in trouble after reading his post even if my post was edited.

RE: Changing Fuel Filters on 2006 E450 Diesel Motorhome

jdog,
I made the assumption that you were talking about a 6.0 diesel because you said on top of the engine. Your profile and post don't say what type of engine you have.
If it is a 6.0, here's a YouTube video. The upper fuel filter is right next to the oil filter and you don't have to move anything to get to it. The video is for a 2004. The top filter is the same as a 2005, though the frame rail filter for the 2005 has a slightly different cap.
6.0 fuel filter change clicky
Bill
Thanks for the info, but the video is about a Ford Super Duty pick-up, not a motorhome. A motor home is different than a pick-up. The filter is not located like your truck. I wish it was. It is located under the driver's side cowling behind a large aluminum tube that I think is for coolant for the turbo. Also the brake fluid filler is in the way. Also yes , I am talking about a 6.0 diesel.

RE: Changing Fuel Filters on 2006 E450 Diesel Motorhome

How is the top one changed? Looks like some things have to be removed to get to it. What is in that large aluminum tube that is in the way?

Changing Fuel Filters on 2006 E450 Diesel Motorhome

Was going to change my fuel filters in E450 motorhome. The one on top of engine looks like it would be hard to do. Has anyone done the change their selves or is it better to have a FORD dealer change them?

RE: Wichita Kansas and tornados

We were driving thru Denver once when the weather turned dark windy, and hail. What do you do? Who knows where to hide? Next to a tree, under an overpass, or just stop and run? We didn't know what this strange weather was going to turn into. People were driving fast to get home or to a shelter and we had no idea where to go or what to do. It stopped as fast as it started. Scary situation for sure.

RE: Has this happened to you?

I would not be too sure it was a truck driver. I been treated very well by truck drivers. They are generally good people just making a living. I had one help me change my flat tire. I didn't have the right lug nut wrench and he did. He just went and changed the tire for me. It was out in the Nevada desert across from a State Prison. No one else would stop but he did. I was very greatful for his kindness and help!

RE: eating lunch at the fuel pumps

If I was behind him and waiting I would have said something for sure. But if his inconsideration was not affecting me, I may not have said anything to him. I may have mentioned to the person waiting behind him that he was in there eating lunch - and watching a movie.
I would have told them that he was on the toilet and eating!
