RE: Trip out west

What a trip you are in for. We were there in Aug. this year. Just didn't stay long enough. Plan your trip so as to spend several days in one place. We didn't and we were sorry. Jim

RE: 2002 Keystone Cougar 5th Wheel Hearter Question

I had a problem with mine lighting. Cleaning the terminals on the circuit board solved the problem. Jim

RE: Lookin for Tires

I am not aware of an LT225/75R15 in an E rated tire. I am running Maxxis ST225/75R15E on my Crossroad Cruiser. We have a little over 4000 miles on them without incident. We are running them at 72 PSI because our wheels are only rated for 75 PSI. Your BIL may have to go to 16" rims to get an LT tire with enough capacity for your rig. Jim

RE: help me?

I had the same problem with a 2000 Jayco. Sewer snake got it open for me. But it will stop back up unless you use some chemicals and lots of water to flush. Everyone has given sound advice. Lots of water every flush and drain when 2/3rds full.

RE: Any recommendations for Maxxis tires?

I ordered mine from discount tire, very satisfied. Had local dealer mount them. My local dealer could not get any, that were less than a year old. DiscountTire sells so many, they are pretty fresh. 6 to 8 months old. Jim
They UPS right to your door.

RE: We'd like some "input" on our decision...

I would choose the 318 because of the location and position of the toilet. We have a Cougar with a small room for the toilet, and it is uncomfortable for me standing or sitting. I am 6'2" and 230# Just my .02 Jim

RE: Owners of 2003 Keystone 24' Cougar HELP

Get all the model and serial numbers of your units equipment. Usually located in a cupboard on the door. Email ea. of those Mfgs and they will send you a copy of their manual. Do the same with Keystone. Give them the Model and S/N from the left front corner of the unit. I did this a couple of years ago. I had to print them out, but the information was worth it. Welcome aboard. Jim

RE: jayco winterizing

Flush all toilets a couple of seconds until pink runs out, to fill the valve with antifreeze.

RE: What are the best-- Best valued tire?

I am very happy so far with my Maxxis 225/75/15 E. I run them at 74 psi and they ran very cool on my trip west in Aug. 4000 mile round trip. I agree with a lot of posters that Michelin are probably the best. But if you are going to replace your tires every 4 years, it makes them really pricey.

RE: does anyone own a fleetwood gearbox 395fs3g

Somewhere inside the rig, usually in a cabinet, are the model and serial numbers of all the appliances. I have found that I could download a manual for almost everything I needed. Or an email to the manufacturer has resulted in the needed manual. I have not found the MFGs manuals to be all that great. If you run into something you can't answer, just ask here. These guys are great.

RE: Is your furnace noisy

I had one in a M/H a couple of years ago, that had noisy bushings. I got some Zoom Spout oil from Ace hardware and took the motor out and lubed it real good with the zoom spout oil. Noise stopped. Now if it is just air noise like my Cruiser has, I don't have any idea other than I have a 2 speed and I use the low speed as much as possible.
