I just noticed at 102k miles, I'm hearing a slight knocking sound from engine. I have not had anything done on my engine or tuneup in 2 years. I'm due for a 5000 mile oil change. Any advice before I take it in. These engines need a timing belt done? I have not been using much this summer since winter.

Help I need a new water heater
kayakthecoast replied to gringostar's topic in Coach ApplianceTech Issues
I have the auto start model I purchased on eBay. Been sitting on my shelf all winter, now that weather is good I'll be installing! I too will need a retro fit door. -
Nice! That will work

Ski season is almost here, just had a ride in a VW with heated seat warmers. Has anybody retrofitted any into their camper? This might be a good winter project and also be great for our rainy all year weather and nice for after kayaking. What seats should I use?

This might be a good time to upgrade to a better system? I added a blue seas marine grade magnetic dual battery relay in mine with a dash rocker switch to combine or isolate starter and house batteries. Works great.

My 12v dometic fridge sucks a lot of power, I only use for whilst driving. Wow you get at most ten amps from 2 100w panels! That's twice as much as I have ever gotten, but I live in the Pacific Northwest. Today I was making 2.5 amps. The beauty of solar is I no longer have to plug in my rv to recharge my batteries! Batteries will last longer I'm sure now.

Looks like a good deal. You'll have to tinker with it but you will have a blast. Where is it at?

I finally had some time to add a USB Port and a neat little portable speaker and a place to store phone, glasses and a book in the over cab area. It's on the front shower wall, I took the shower vanity out (4 screws) and got access behind the wall to add the USB port and simply wired to existing light. The neat little JBL Bluetooth speaker has amazing sound and I used Velcro to add to wall. I use it for other outdoor activities. $49 bucks at best buy.

I thought I had a 6 gallon in there? I'll have to measure.

I'll stick with a suburban then, will bid on some on eBay and look for a bargain.

Wow I found a spendy 4 season tankless water heater for an rv! 4x more expensive than a typical suburban BUT it sounds great for my winter ski camping trips. http://www.precisiontemp.com/rv-and-trailer/rv-550-wall-vented-tankless-water-heater-for-rv-and-trailer/

Mines playing up too, american appliance 6500015 thermostat not working, think I'll upgrade to electric ignition! Hmmm electric element add on for water heater! Do you need the solar water panels for this to work? I'm guessing yes.

Propane Smell When Running Furnace
kayakthecoast replied to candace's topic in Coach ApplianceTech Issues
I'm with Linda, if you have not run it in awhile dust accumulated over time smells pretty bad (burnt dusty smell different from propane). Needs a good day to burn off whilst running. Soapy water in a squeeze bottle and check your gas connections possible u have a leak -
I'm looking at your winch. What is it? I'm thinking of adding one to mine
