  1. Hello Again. I have a 86 sunrader. Just got back from a big 7,000 mile journey. Out of the blue my interior lights ( one entire side ) stopped working. I check the fuses in the cab under the dash and the fuses in the engine area... all seem to be in good shape. I have heard there is another fuse box in the camper. I have looked and found no clues... Anyone have a clue where I can find the fuses?

    cheers.

  2. I have a 85 sunrader w a 4 banger 22re. She started up wonderfully at lower altitudes first crank.

    Now, after driving her 1000 miles and up to 7,000 feet she takes three cranks and lot of gas pumping to crank over.

    I put in gas and fuel injector cleaner, then tried higher octane... yet, nothing helps.

    Fuel issue? Fuel filter?

    Where to start looking?

    Thanks!

    made it to flagstaff... the wind has died

  3. The sensor is more about engine output then the transmission. At altitude there is less air for the engine to breath so it's output is reduced and the transmission stays in a lower gear to make life easier for the engine.

    When it happened - I heard a bit of ticking sounds from the steering column. Has anyone else heard this??? Or is this a relay problem?

    stuck in clovis...

  4. I know this will start an argument but the rear bearings are lubed by the differential as they are on any full floating rear. The only time you would need to grease them would be if the hub and bearings had been removed for brake/seal work. Gear oil is an excellent wheel bearing lube just ask any long haul trucker with a million or more miles on their rigs. Generally it's a good ideal to do the fronts every time you do the brakes. If you are concerned about rear brake lining there are inspection plugs on the outer edge of the backing plates that will allow you to see the edge of the lining.

    Thanks for the insight. And sorry for the repeated post... it was my internet connection.

    So in your opinion - to repack, and re grease the wheel bearings is overkill.

    The wheel gaskets show no sign of leaks or cracks.

    I have no leaks, and no noise issues.

    Just want to be road ready.
