RE: CO2 Sensor Goes Off
It says in the owners manual, that these monitors are not supposed to see above 120F. You live in a hot area and I'm willing to bet when stored during the summer, the inside of your trailer sees over 120F. I disconnected mine and got a portable one. More sensitive and I take it in my house when the trailer is stored.

RE: Genny Service
Oh yeah, forgot to say, the issue is not any filter getting plugged, the issue is the old style filter leaks like crazy. Onan will not admit that, they just say you don't need a redundant filter. But it is because the old style leaked. Go out and check yours and see if it is leaking. I know a few people on glamisdunes.com had leaking ones.

RE: Genny Service
Sorry, it is not a TSB, they call it a Product Support Bulletin. It is Bulletin No. 713 dated 10/9/09. Camping world printed out my bulletin and gave it to me.
The filter they eliminated was the filter that screwed in right before the carb. You replace it with part number A026E529. When you order a new fuel filter, you can't get the old style now, only the new style. Which screws into the fuel pump.

RE: Genny Service
It is a standard looking filter, hose clamp ends. I got mine at Autozone, part number GG3043 1/4 I think. Mine has 1/4" fuel line coming out of my genny tank.

Genny Service
Just did my 500 hour service on my 5500 Onan. Changed oil/filter, air filter, primary fuel filter, removed the secondary fuel filter per Onan TSB and put adapter in place of it and changed the spark plugs. The plugs were definetly wore out after 500 hours. They were worn. Also replaced fuel filter Warrior installs coming out of the genny fuel tank.
Genny fires up much quicker now. I am ready for dune season!!!!!

RE: tire pressures
Always run ST tires at max pressure. They suck as it is, so max pressure helps them live a little longer.

RE: Ford F350 with and w/o Tow Boss ??
Tow Boss has the Dana Super 60 front end, normal 4.10 gears is in the Dana 60. The rear end is the Dana 80. Same for both 4.10 and 4.30 gears. You get the bigger receiver with the Tow Boss package. It will handle a 2.5" receiver.
The IBC rocks. Plus in Tow/Haul, the tranny will down shift and hold it to give engine braking. But you get that with all of the Torqshift trannies.

RE: Need GLAMIS advice
All depends on where you camp. There are places to camp that you stay on asphalt the whole time. Airing your tires down and momentum are key to not getting stuck.

RE: Took it to the scales
Very cool you got everything weighed. That trailer is lighter than I thought. I won't say you need a F450 or F550, but a F350 with the Tow Boss package would be juuuuuuuuust right. :)

RE: short term storing an ATV
I use StaBil and run my quads, generator, rail etc. 1 time every month during the summer here. I don't drain any carbs or anything.

RE: Need new tires for the Warrior
Move up to 16" wheels/tires. That is a much better option than General tires.

RE: Another Weekend Warior Roof Issue
Interesting observations about the years/models with more issues. I have a 2006 LE and I haven't seen anything yet. But then again, I am always checking my seams for cracking and I have a covered parking spot. So being under cover and living in Phoenix, my trailer doesn't see much rain at all.
I have a buddy with a 2005 SLC and his entire rear cap separated.

RE: max weight loaded
Depends on where you're going. If I'm going to the desert, I'm going full. That means 165 gallons of water, 36 gallons of fuel, buggy, quad, fire wood and beer. Full load for me is 27,700 lbs down the road :D :D Too difficult to find a water fill point most of the time.You do realize that if you don't fill the fresh tanks with water untill you arrive where you are camping you have almost 1700lbs of cargo space?
Not many fill their tanks and lug around water from home. It's 8lbs per gallon and adds up real fast.
Ditto this. I always fill my water tanks and haul full water. I also 100% dry camp.

RE: diesel oil ???
One Auto Zone ran out, but they had a sale on Rotella this past 2 weeks, $9.99/gallon. I also do oil changes every 3000 miles, but I tow heavy and 90% of my miles are towing. I also get a Blackstone report done with each oil change and it always shows my viscosity is really low, like a 30W oil. So I won't go longer than 3000 miles on a change.
I won't go to synthetic. Oil is cheap, motors are not. I will stick with Dino and change it every 3000 miles. You could order Rotella on line and have it shipped to you. You can even get it in 5 gallon buckets and pump it out into containers.

RE: max weight loaded
Gotta go weigh it. Put all your camping gear in it, fill the fresh water and go weight it.
Take the GVWR - loaded weight and that tells you how much you can put in the cargo area.
Once you weight it, you can also tell if you are over your tire and/or axle ratings.
Weighing it is the only true way of determining what you can/can not put in it.

RE: How fast do you tow?
In CA I try to stay around 60 mph but in AZ, NV, UT I travel 70-75-80 mph- depending on speed limit and conditions.
All about the tires, conditions, and keeping a safe distance.
Me too
Me three.
