One is bubbling out of the top of the air bag. One out of the bottom of the bag. How much slime do you put in? I looked at the slime directions and our application isn't covered. Thanks.

I think I've got the same problem. How long does your hold air? What is slime?

Thanks! I think I needed the confidence boost to do this. I really am happy with the spirit, if there was one thing that bothered me was the wind noise due to the door. Any advice on the rebuild to reduce wind noise? Thanks

Thanks for everyone's posts. I followed a number of the posts on here and changed most all the fluids. Put 1500 miles since Memorial Day weekend going to the North Shore in MN and Rochester MN and the camper is running well as usual. It's good to have the piece of mind of having done the preventative maintenance for the longer trips.
Rear Differential used carquest synthetic 75W90. advanced auto $9 per quart, less than 2 quarts to fill - super easy to fill
Brake fluid dot 3 - friend had a machine to replace the dot 3 by pushing out the old fluid with the new fluid
Transmission - same buddy filtered the transmission fluid using a transmission filter system
engine oil - mobil 1 10W30 5 quarts with mobil 1 filter
coolant flush - flushed for quite a while after draining to get clear water, - went with zerex Asian coolant from advanced auto - 2 gallons around $15 / gallon
New ?: I'm sure I should change the power steering fluid. Should I change the power steering fluid? How do you changed the power steering fluid?

92 spirit door opened and wind violently slammed it open. All the screw on the bottom half of the door were moved through the wood, so the door wouldn't shut. The door hit on the latch side. Pulled the screws on outside of the door and pushed on the latch side and used some screws on the inside as a temporary fix.
Any ideas on fixing?

Heading to the north shore next weekend. Nice pictures, can't wait.

Replaced all 6 they were old but looked great, went with nexen brand 8 ply 185R14. It wasn't worth taking a chance on. I had a big rig winne blow out couple years ago on a vacation, no fun. Learned my lesson on old tires that look great.
I did go to buy oil 10w30 mobil 1 and filter and didn't get the coolant as the autozone was promoting universal coolant that was green.
Any recommendations on what type and where to buy coolant. Thanks

Thanks. I'll focus on the coolant first.
-
Thanks. I'll get the fluids changed. Excited about taking the longer trips.

Proud newbie owner of 92 Itasca Spirit with a V6. Bought last summer with 19000 miles. The lady just didn't drive it. Oil change was from 2010 and only had 1000 miles, so i changed that. Put 2500 miles just driving within 75 miles of home and it runs good. Now expanding trips distance to 300 miles. Coolant is orange in color. Transmission is red. Runs great. Should i change these fluids and how and with what brand? Thanks

I am going to wrap some really gooey butyl mastic tape around the top of the one and put vinyl tape over it. It's a 2228 3M tape. I'll try the slime on the bottom leaker. Maybe I'll buy the aerosol tire fixer stuff so i dont have pull the valve.
