Good morning all, if you have read the thread that I started call LP DETECTOR, you know what is going with that.
Last weekend used Oxy-Clean, mixed a strong solution, sprayed in on the ceiling and let it soak for 30 minutes, had rented a rug shampoo machine from Home Depot,used the wand that is for use on furniture and cleaned the ceiling, then did the carpet on the floor. Both came out real nice, have to come up with a trick to color the little bit of stain on the ceiling to blend in with the rest, maybe a mixture of different color sidewalk chalk, or something like that. Had the son in law get on the roof to check the caulk up there, when we bought this unit one of the Maxx Air covers was gone, so installed a new one of those. Will be checking the air pressure in the tires shortly. Was looking at the drain valve of the water heater, want to get one of those electric plug units, which electric do you all use. While I had that opened I saw a wasp nest, out it came, so then I turn on the LP tank and started the water heater for a brief time and the furnace to make sure some critter had not built a home in there, I try to remember to do that every month. I just love messing with the C.

Hi,

Clipped the wires going to the low oil light on the Boliy. It will now start--but the automatic throttle is apparently disabled with the low oil light is removed from the circuit. It does 122 volts with no load. Initially with 1152 watts of load (water heater) I got 108 volts--but after 30 minutes that had dropped to 88 volts.

In short it is a GSO (generator shaped object).

Hi,

I found out I can easily keep the water heater running on the electric setting via the alternator and solar panels. It uses less energy than the fridge.

Hi,

I'm going to delve into the Boliy generator today to see if I can get the rotten thing to output some decent number of watts.

Put eternabond tape on both sides of the front cab. Small leak on the right side, hope it is fixed, and preventive on the left.

Tried to get the refrigerator working on LP by checking all electric connections and votages, and cleaning around the burner, but failed. I can here the igniter firing but don't seem to be getting gas to the burner. I'll try to pull the burner tomorrow.

Today I started washing the window screens. I don't think they've been washed since this Class-C 1992 rig left the factory.

Cleaned screens on the overhead vents, including wiping clean the inside of the vent covers ( all have the maxair covers over the vent covers).
Pulled everything out out of the MH in prep for a solar install Tuesday (Very excited about that), 7 totes full of stuff.
Deep vacuum, spot treatment, cleaned a counters, tables, sink, bathroom and toilet.
Installed 6 led lights as replacements, love how they look, need to change out the rest of the remaining lights.

Busy day!

Charging batteries and getting it ready for a trip to New Orleans. We have been off the road for a year now and it's time to get back on it.
