Jim...here is a video showing the shim removal. After you do 1 0r2 it gets easier!
-
Jim....when you take out a shim, measure it, mark it, and put it back it before turning crank to get at the others. You do not want to turn the camshafts with empty buckets. I found that out the hard way!

Had some left over 12V strip light and a non working fluorescent in YODA...so I thought I would pull the guts from the fixture, install 3 led strips in with 3M mounting tape, and see how it would look. Actually worked better than I thought it would. Gives off as much light as the back one that does work, but uses much less power.

If you have a Seabreeze it looks like the black tank is fiberglass. and here is the fitting that fits into it. What lube or sealant do you think I should use putting it back together? ...silicone grease?..pipe dope?

THAT LOOKS GREAT. I STILL HAVE THE "PINK" SEATS. DID YOU DO THE PROJECT ? OR HAVE IT DONE. EITHER WAY THEY DO LOOK GREAT. VERY NICE JOB. JOE FROM DOVER.
Thanks Joe...I did it. Used spray adhesive on all but the edges where I use liquid fabric glue. It is fleece which is easy to work with, folded the edges. Nice not having that pink staring back at me!

OK...got the pics to load. Now some may like pink, but it bothered me every time I looked at them. But I like this camo and have it on my lounger and my wife even likes it.

Or buy a folding portable with 30 foot of cable...park in the shade and put panel in sun

Check under the mattress for rot in the cabover...it looks like some paneling was added at the front.

I'm looking at this exhaust and wondering if it will work on our rigs. I know I would have to add length to the pipe from the converter to the muffler and add a piece to the tailpipe to clear the side. Part I'm wondering most about is the tailpipe if it will clear the sway bar. What do you think?

Hmmmmmm.......They're all saying ' it never should have gone in those motorhomes.' Even the Toyota dealer we called about a rebuild said that.
Can't be too bad. Many have gone over 100,000 miles and 26 odd years, and still going!!

Wow...look at those prices!...thanks Linda for looking that up. Guess my chances of finding a good used one are very slim!......and Maineah, the reason I was looking for one is the auxilary air valve built into it is totally blocked up and cant get it opened up. Now my understanding is the valve is open when coolant is cold to increase the cold idle, and closes when warm. My warm idle is too high because the valve will not close when warm. So for now, since I dont use the RV when cold anyway, I will try blocking the air passage in the throttle body so it will allow the WARM idle to come down.
-
Anyone know if a throttle body that fits 1990s and 1991s will fit a 1989??...cant find any on Ebay that say compatible with a 1989....I would guess so but don't know.

Yeah I spoke with someone at an rv repair place and he said it sounds like the compressor and that it will most likely need an entire new unit
I would change the capacitor first before I condemned the a/c unit!

If it has no water damage and is not rusty underneath and runs good offer $6,000, or $5,500 if it needs tires...looks nice but check good for water damage. Tap with your knuckle around vents, ceiling by walls and top of walls, around windows...should hear sharp rap sound if good, dull thud if soft from water damage. Check floor for softness caused by water. Check the date on tires...they may have good thread still, but if over 7 years should be replaced anyway.

I use a 25" breaker bar and tighten till I go "uuugh"...never had a problem with them that way!

The carpet looks really nice. Great job. Did you cut the carpet to fit or did you remove the furniture and walls? I'm about to do the same thing to my '87 Conquest.
Hi Doug....I cut the carpet to fit....the hardest part was cutting out the old carpet and pulling out staples.

Scarlett...on google type in "all of craigslist"

if antifreeze is toyota red, then replace with toyota red. Or flush real good first if you want to use green as they do not mix.

I don't know how the 4 cyl works, but with the V6 the fuel pump does not come on till a switch in the air flow meter closes.

When you try to light one of the stove burners you should be able to hear if gas is flowing...if no flow the regulator is probably the problem.
aluminum sheets on the bottom of the motorhome?

aluminum flashing is probably what you want...Menards sells a 24" x 10 foot roll for 16 bucks.
