    Air leak help

    "Forget the Whisper"... you go right ahead. I spent a little time with our Infocon Whisper with the Volvo running. My hearing is not that great but I managed to track down about six small leaks, five of them were just a matter of reseating hoses, one we replaced a fitting. The Whisper makes it obvious where the leak is, even small ones.

    Rough roads

    So many of the highways have terrible right hand lanes where they are miles of bone jarring pot holes, poorly done patches and repairs, scalloped concrete etc. This stuff is fatiguing to drivers, tears up your vehicles and trailers, prematurely wears out tires, sidewall and tread damage. Yet you get the stink eye if you spend any time in the left or middle lane. The state does not reimburse for the damage their roads do to your property.
  3. Go to Amazon, cheap is $60, expensive is $150, several in between.
  4. Problem solved! Got the fan motor assembly out and powered it off a battery... no joy. Ordered a new motor assembly on Amazon and once installed everything works like a charm.
  5. Fan motor? Oh joy, I’ve seen what it is going to take to get to that level. I wonder if I could get to the motor connector and apply some power from an external source and see if it runs before tearing into the air box?
  6. We were rolling down the hiway then nothing, no speeds.
  7. 2000 VNL 770 Detroit Auto Heater fan stopped working, 40A heater fuse designated : MF5 40A CAB HEAT is good. Any experience or insights? Pulled dash heat/ac control sub panel, looked good. Going to pull pass side dash covers and check fan connection.
  8. On our build we did MIG, TIG, & PLASMA. We always had a bare spot of metal on the chassis we'd brush up and attach the ground to. Nearby we also had a spot where we'd use vise grips to clamp a 3/8 chain that hung down to the ground and we'd hit it with a watering can, now we have a big copper rod in the ground. We always removed the cables from the batteries just in case and the final part was pop the top off the instrument panel and disconnect the cables from the instrument display, they are expensive and accessible. So far so good.
  9. Ken, How do you have the travel cage set up? I am wondering if it is a long drive is this going to be a workout for her feet and legs just hanging on?
  10. We plan on travelling with our macaw, probably put her in a travel cage and take her out now and then while we are rolling. I am thinking we will have to build her a couple of large cages that can be taken apart, one for indoors and one for outside in the screen porch.
