  1. Dave, Did you get your new propane tanks yet? What a good idea making room for taller tanks.
  2. Many thanks! Funny I left SF over 10 years ago to Allstate, was with SF for about 30 years. Will call in a.m.
  3. Just notified today that Progressive is dropping me in 5 days. My Totorhome semi is not qualified. Allstate dropped me previously because they are getting out of large insurance RV types. Not sure where to go next, any company suggestions would be great! Dennis
  4. Dirt sorry to hear this bad news about the battery fire; do you know the cause? Dennis
  5. My self inflicted pain has healed now that I an home. Last night ordered some Stayidne fluid was rated high next to Hot Shot. Had 911 Amsoil whis I used and 8 ounces of Sea Foam, just did not use until after the fact. On board the truck was also one bottle of Power Service and my heat gun but we just kept driving and waiting for full power.
  6. Jay is that why my coolant temps stayed so low 113 degrees. I understand why I could not develop power because the filters would not pass the fuel fast enough. My bad for not putting in anti gel, I have used this stuff for 30 years living in Colorado. Thanks gents, off to Walmart for more product.
  7. Sorry to say this but we must pull out of this rally. Now have family responsibilities that must be attended overlapping same dates. Have not cancelled my camp site yet in case someone needs it. Dennis
  8. I had same issue on my Volvo 670, darn thing shut down a number of times when I first owned it. Tag on the top of the reservoir says "Fill to Brim". Hard corners were setting off the low level alarm and shut the truck down.

    Diesel Gel Issues

    Forgot to add anti gel fluid to my Diesel yesterday when stopped overnight in Raton, NM temps were just below zero. Truck started fine (plugged in) but would not go above 1500 rpm; luckily I had a bottle of 911 anti gel with me and only had 65 gallons of fuel in the tank so I added the entire contents plus 1/2 can of Sea Foam. It took over a 100 miles for the issue to clear out since the temps were averaging 15 to 20 degrees. While this was happening I noticed my coolant temp would not rise above 113 degrees. When the issue went away the temp went back to normal. Did this gelling issue do any damage to my nearly new fuel filters; should I replace them.
  10. I am using a product called Max Mileage from Pittsburgh Power. One gallon treats 3000 gallons, this is a catalyst so exact measurement is required. I have EGR only and it appears to be working.
  11. We had a good trip visiting old friends and making new ones. Stopped off in Green Valley to see my parents and have got 3 loads of laundry done. Some fun football games to watch and nice weather. I could do this trip again.
  12. Volvo doors come apart pretty easy, you might replace the speaker while in there. I had lock issues as well, Volvo sells lots of these parts. Plastic if I remember correctly.
  13. Just did glass last week for $280.
  14. Lyntons are close, in Bouse doing an SxS ride that did not end well. CV axle started grinding but we got it back to Bouse RV Park going 8 mph. See all Sunday after Church.
  15. Hey All, I have one Arizona Off Highway Decal now available as a result of my ATV motor has Covid (blow up). Any offers accepted will arrive in Q with the group on Jan 22 or 23rd latest..... These are not tied to a VIN. Dennis
  16. Rick, what site #? We got 16.
  17. Just registered and got a campsite by the lake. Have HDT, wife and 2 dogs will travel. This looks like a fun and educational event.
  18. Dave, count Sheri and Dennis in for Jan 22nd we are stopping into Bouse, Az to see friends at a RV park. @Chad Heiser have ordered the AZ OHV tags for our ATV's. Can we ride ATV's to the Big Tent and not ride on any paved roads? My units are not street legal. Dennis
  19. Rick while the bed is off have you weighed the truck without bed and then do you plan to weigh it again to see overall weights and effect on front axle? Both of your readers would be interested. Looks so very nice. Dennis
  20. My T fitting behind driver seat is leaking. Located under the floor mat and supplies air to the passenger seat. Had to cut slots in matt in order to gain access. My whisper device found the large leak. Thanks Parformance for letting me use your tool.
  21. Nice truck and it is loaded.
  22. I am getting quotes in Denver for getting my Volvo 670 hood and top painted. Hail damage and clear coat popped off. Attempting to get it done prior to Quartzside Jan 22. Got any good recommendations?
  23. I just borrowed a whisper yesterday from Doug a member. Need to purchase couplers and hose. Where do you guys get parts from? Not holding air for very long.
  24. I purchase my oil from Walmart and told them I was bringing them the dead oil. No problem as long as they know it did not come from a shop. I pumped the old oil back into gallon jugs.
