RE: 80 Watt Solar panel
Eighty watts is about 6 amps. In really good sun with the panel tilted at the best angle that may barely charge your battery enough for what you want. It will be marginal at best. Using a generator to charge batteries works using your converter or an outside battery charger. Some honda have a 12 volt circuit but it puts out only a few amps.
RE: Never seen one like this ...
if you unload to camper to use it, just stop when the camper is half way off the truck get in the bed and open them. Of course you could just fully onload and pull the truck close. A ladder may also be a big help. Maybe a pair of stilts.
RE: Why is it always the inner dual???
trash on the road tends to be in the center of each lane so the inside tire sees more of it than the outside. That's why you will seldom see motorcycles ride the center of the road.
RE: Flying J
Flying J like everyone else is feeling the way the economy is going. If you don't like their prices and practices just go somewhere else. I agree they could use more RV aisles.
RE: Suburban Oven - doesn't stay lit
it sounds like you have a good dealer working to solve your problem. Thermocouple some time fail at high temperatures but I guess you can eliminate that if the oven has been replaced. I would think that Suburan would be providing help to the dealer. Good luck.
RE: wire size for two 6 volt
I would also go with preassembled battery cables. You will be drawing well over 100 amps through that connector. If possible replace the wires going to ground and the converter with heavier guage.
RE: Grandkids and cats.
At least you were able to visit with your daughter. You will miss the granddaughter. Dogs and cats learn to get along, Your grandchild will probably grow into a really neat young lady. I would suggest that you try to do KIDS, it will keep you young. Try being nice to the neighbor children and visit with their parents. Friends you get to pick, Relativies are your own fault. Have a nice day.
RE: 2000 Georgetown, odd circuit in transfer switch
It's a long shout but the manufacturer may be able to help you. Finding someone who has had a problem in that area after 8 years may be rough.
RE: Buffing 34ft Coach
That may be 5 hours labor. Many shops are up to $100 per hour. The rate may be less but the shop may fear damaging the unit. Of course if the shop you ask just doesn't want to do that kind of job it may be high.
RE: Gear Change 1997 GMC Yukon
Try the auto salvage dealers. If they have the whole unit it probably will work. It may be expensive. It might be better to trade tow vehicles.
RE: 1996 Alpha 5th wheel battery hookup
Get out the ohmmeter and measure each wire to the frame of the trailer. Use a high range. The ones that show 0 ohms should be the negatives.
RE: Brake fluid change
Whats best way to loosen bleeder valve without breaking it off. Maybe heat it up by short drive with brakes on? in past i usually broke them
I would use penatrating oil and a good six-sided socket.
