  1. Another cause of oil coming out of the slobber tube is the overfilling the engine with oil. Can be a faulty marked dip stick. Happens a lot. IF you have a large amount of oil coming out of the slobber tube, reduce the amount of oil you put in the engine by -1- quart. Se what happens. Paul A
  2. Did you check out the prices from Dynaflexproducts.com? Largest MFG. of class 8 truck exhaust components in the U S A. Paul A
  3. Pat Thank you for the courteous post. So nice to see a conclusion or summation by an originator of a post. Paul A
  4. During 9 years of the 10 years we full timed, i had a 15# powertank.com that i purchased from them for $.495.00. I used nitrogen by choice which i filled it with from Industrial Gas supply entity's. It was awesome, very quick, and the 15# tank would last for 1 to 1-1/2 years before refilling for 12-14$. I had a spot for it in the basement, and put quick disconnects on it for the 50' air line i used for the coach and Toad. I Sold it in 2014 for 350$. Best thing i ever did for the inflation issue we all have to address. Paul A
  5. Has anyone asked waderv.com about making windshield screen with magnets?? Paul A
  6. We obtained a I Pass from the state of Illinois in 2003. We registered our coach and toad tag information. We full timed from 2004 -2014. Never had a charge dispute and used it all over the U S. Only exception then was the Will Rogers Turnpike in Ok. Paul A
  7. Chris Could you please elaborate on the portion of your statement; " canvas maker/fabricator. " The "canvas maker" is very intriguing. Paul A
  8. Check out dynaflexproducts.com. I had a 525 ISX in a 07 Executive i did the following changes to the intake and exhaust components. I replaced the OEM air cleaner with one from AFE, which had a washable filter element and more CFM capacity, same micron spec. Next i replaced ALL the pleated intake hose with rubber fittings and aluminum tubing from intakehoses.com. That's what truckers use. Got rid of all the air friction in the intake. Next was a resonator to replace the muffler from dynaflexproducts.com. Largest MFG. of class 8 truck exhaust components in the U S A. Did not like that so i went straight pipe. . Here is a picture of the results on a screen shot of my Aladdin system. Performance was great and my average CRUISING MPG went up. I cruised at 1350-1400 RPM, 61-62 MPH. Paul A
  9. You have to wonder if the Vanity mud flap contributes to the rear radiator accumulating contaminated air from the roadway. Paul A
  10. Ask the local class 8 truck dealers where they get their frame work done. Do some phone interviewing. Paul A
  11. I would replace the 18 year old ignition switch. May not be defective, but a good proactive P M step. Paul A

  14. We ended up doing the same thing. That plastic clear hose is just not the correct one for that application. I also changed the cap to 7#. Paul A You may want to try using a mirror , one like the dentists use. They are cheap at harbor Freight. Check it when you start it up when the unit is cold. Paul A
  15. Thank you for this great informative post. Know any truck repair service that could see if they can buy for you?? Paul A
  16. THE number -1- specification for me was and always will be the filter element micron size. Paul A
  17. Phil I would take several photos, then make a sketch with dimensions of the existing Air Cleaner and take it to NAPA. With that and the engine info they should be able to match it up. Keep in mind the micron size of the filter element is important. I provided that information when i ordered a AFE filter to replace the original one . Paul A

  19. A good local glass shop can do that. Take a picture and measurements to them. Paul A
  20. The state attorney general route is one way to address that issue. My experience in trying that, as a full timer, or anyone who is not a resident of that state where the service was an issue is, the state attorney generals office has a priority to us their budget $$$ on residents issues first. That was told to my directly by a staff person that state att'ys office. Sad but that's the way it is. Paul A
  21. This is another company that manufactures and sells a devise that other company's also have / do. The intended use / application is similar to other products out there, ie; Rettrobands and Tyron. Check it out if you like. Paul A
  22. Dennis Thank you for that great story and wonderful experience you had with the Grandchildren. When one of my Uncles came home from WW II he stopped in at our home and visited. He was a Ranger and my Dad let me stay up late and listen to his story's about his experiences. Inspired me. I was 11. I enlisted in the Army and attained that goal of becoming a Ranger in 1953. Never regretted it. Paul A
  23. William Try this web site. dynaflexproducts.com They are the largest manufacturer of Class 8 truck exhaust components in the U S A. Great product catalog. I purchased a Resonator from them, thru a distributor. At that time it had the best back pressure specifications. Most Class 8 truck Brand service entity's are distributors. Paul A
