  1. i found that these old mh's get smeared with silicon trying to fix leaks. removing it can be a bear. i found that a multi tool with a putty blade reallys mkes it a lot easier
  2. thanks so much. i looked for that manual. where was it hiding?
  3. my ac vents wwould spinn around as they lost tension. my fix is to dab silicon sealant in the right places, wait for it to cure, then cut it with a razor blade. provides a little drag so the vens stay where i put them
  4. just to share. tore my old cooling unit apart. this is why you can't tell if it's good or not. once the smell is gone, the evidence is encased in foam
  5. so i ordered a new cooling unit. arriving today. realized now would be the time to add a 12v heater in case i want it down the line, but i cant find a part no. for it, or an interchange. anyone?
  6. any shop that works on 3/4 or 1ton trucks will know how to deal with your leaking wheel bearing seal. could be bad because of bad bearings tho. any place that works on older toyotas can fix the power steering
  7. definitly homemade. does the thinwall square tube go all the way back to the frame mount? that tube should be at least .125 wall. is that a bumper it's welded to or a drain hose box?. if all you're doing is using it for the carrier find a square tube that fits and adapt it
  8. thank you so much linda. you really look out for us. as for turning it over, the manual for it says to. so for now im going to renig on my offer of parts i will try the heating thing. ive got plenty of time randy
  9. thanks Linda. maybe i will reconsider
  10. from what i've seen the replacements cost as much as a new fridg.
  11. so i removed my dometic 461 and turned it over several times in 48 hours. still no cooling so.... anyone here needing parts im willing to send them for shipping costs only. the door, seal ,shelves, and freezer are very nice. you can contact me at zaveson@gmail.com. randy
  12. take the 2 wires(black and white) out of the terminal block. check the resistance between them. infinate=bad heater element.
  13. so iv'e been going through my newly aquired mh. so farall gas appliances except fridg work (yay). gas lights up and is in the right burner position(after cleaning),on elect. there is heat. no cooling eather way. manual lists turning the thing upside down several times to separate the amonia from the hydrogen because someone used the fridg without leveling. has anyone done this? i see no signs of leaks
  14. there was a bbq tank in there on its side. can i have my tank converted for horizontal use?
  15. so i have a 84 dolphin and the propane tank compartment is too small to stand up a small tank. i have a 2ft tall tank i think will fit on its side. can i do it , or is there a special tank to lay down
