RE: AA and AAA Rechargeable Batteries
:) Hi, I bought Duracells from Amazon, E-bay, and Costco. They work very well so far. I bought a nice charger, with batteries, from E-bay and the Green batteries were junk. Only Duracell for me.

RE: dead battery has interesting side effect
Hi all,
On my v-10 E-450 the starter battery died.
As a side result--even when boosted the gas gauge read ZERO fuel and the low fuel led was lite.
It was totally full of gas.
How peculiar!
:) Hi, while working at a Ford dealer I had a similar situation three times.
(1.) A battery was completely dead and someone jump started it with the cables crossed.
(2.) A battery was completely dead and the battery charger was connected backwards.
(3.) The batteries were stolen from a new F-650. Battery cables were also cut. Whoever installed the new batteries and cables wired them backwards.

RE: Aqua Magic Style 2 - bowl leaks down
:) Hi, I just spray Silicone on the ball, around the seal. I found that just water and RV antifreeze will dry out the seal and it will drain, and stick. Manufacture says to only use silicone on the seal.

RE: Need recommendations for wireless rear view camera
:) Hi, for me, I chose a Garmin RV GPS with wireless back-up camera. Mostly because I didn't want another item or screen on my dash.
What I mean is that I will have to have a GPS anyway and don't want something like a Voyager back up camera adding another screen on my dash.

RE: GMC Class A
:) Hi, Oh the memories. Way back when????????? I was a mechanic at an Oldsmobile / GMC dealer. I worked on two of them. Or was it three? They had me exchange the rear interior of two Motorhomes with each other. I don't remeber what the difference was, but that is what the customer and the dealer wanted me to do. I believe that I also replaced or re-installed the rear suspension air bags. We called them Footballs because that is what they looked like before they were installed. I also rebuilt the automatic transmission on one of them. I think it was called a Turbo 425. It was the easiest automatic transmision that I ever rebuilt, but the hardest one to remove and re-install. They were very well built and drove very nice. I think there were only two sizes, a 23'er and a 26'er.
This was maybe 45 years ago, so I might have a few things wrong.

RE: Broken Frame on a RAM 3500
:) Hi, why is the owner guessing? All he has to do is open the driver's door and read the label.

RE: Harvest Hosts
:) Hi, I stayed at one Harvest Host, and it was for free. I am not a member. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Most stays are for one night only.
All, or most, are in a field / parking lot with no hook-ups.
Most seem to be at Wineries; We don't drink.
They want you to buy something at each place. I will if they have anything that I can use, or eat.
Some are located at museums. I like museums. Once again you will be camping in a parking lot.
You can't get a list of places unless you join. I would like to know what is available before I join.
Most of them want a reservation first, partially because some of them only have room for one RV.
Not sure if I can run my generator, which I might need since there are no hook-ups.
Once again, I am not a member. Correct me if I'm wrong.

RE: Towing with lifted truck; need assistance
:) Hi, this may not be what you want to hear, but it's the truth. A co-worker of mine had a lift kit installed on his truck and on his trailer. Shortly after, he rolled them both. Scared the 7734 out of him and he never towed again. Fortuneatly, no-one was badly hurt, just some briuses.

RE: Honda 2000 won’t run my late model home furnace
