  7. I did a valve adjustment today only had to tighten #3 exhaust all others where pretty close to specs also replaced fuel injectors last week.. RV is running better after tune-up All ready for trip to Yosemite leave Saturday for a week..

Off to Yosemite on Saturday from San Diego going to have four people and food lots of beer firewood & camping gear so might be a little heavy should still get better then my last 13 to 13.5 going 65mph & going to lower speed to sweet spot 55 and see how much that helps
  9. installed a 75watt solar panel & a new solar regulator my old solar panel was a 15watt peace of junk I got burned on craigslist with I get 3amps out of 75watts should be all I need to charge battery & run a stereo & charge mp3 player & charge phone
  10. Bought new oem fuel injectors from ebay for a 22re"c" engine my brother/mechanic wanted to teach me how replace injectors... all went well till we found out I bought the wrong injectors so took off efi for second time & found the right injectors reinstalled efi & broke off a bolt on the cold start ?injector? tried to drill & use extractor no luck but bolt drilled out and fell into intake so once again had to take efi off to get to bolt... finally got everything back together and RV is running great and new injectors helped out a lot brother asked what did I learn (meaning not to over tighten bolts) I said pay him to do it
  11. my engine is running good & I was going to adjust valves for maintenance reasons only & bought gasket kit talking to mechanic & Toyota Nation forum I decided not to do job because engine is running good at 72000 miles and don't want to have any problems after job from bad valve adjustment or just tightening valves to much.... Should I do the job? or leave it alone because its running smooth..... let me know what you guys think..
  12. kept my on rear bumper storage area & left it their all year and it started chipping away from sun lucky it was on top of container so no leak... guess I should remove when not using going to buy a 5 gallon so it will be carried on roof or cargo rack....
  13. looks good for $$$ 83xxx miles http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/rvs/4673059384.html
  14. I was messing around with old camera & power it off running lights that had a bad & short connection the + wire broke off solder and fell inside rv.. so I took off kitchen cabinet sub wall to get to running light wires to pigtail & fix No-Go it was the running light that was dead center inside of wall separating bathroom & kitchen..No big deal.. Drilled a hole for new wires & spliced into exciting running lights & got me thinking why not have backup camera & all wires tucked away inside cabinet sub-wall for a neater look outside & not running wires & rca video cable all over the place.. So I went to Fry's and bought a backup 170* camera that is flush mounted with rv came with its own drill bit for easy install $45w/tax to go wireless I bought a fm 2.4gh video transmitter & receiver ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DOQAGO2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) not blu-tooth fm signal works better//for me// installed transmitter outside of sub-wall for better reception & installed receiver under dash.. works good & better picture than my rca cable... getting ready to paint outside RV so RV skin is rough looking..
  15. I was able to change my order to these just to be safe plus these are flush mount others weren't
  16. The ones I have now do not have reflectors in California not sure of laws
  17. I will update pics hopefully back of rv will be painted asap so it will look nice and clean the price is right at $43 for pair should be an easy install
  18. these are the ones I'm going with http://www.amazon.com/Lights-Truck-trailer-Caravan-Emergency/dp/B00LCSBAQM/ref=pd_sim_sbs_auto_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=05EXVVH4M11PA4TW9AEH
