RE: Honda generators what is the differance

The C is a later rev than the other.... both are commercial gens and are much louder than the EU models. The EU models run about 56 db and the EB run at 67 db... much louder.

RE: Generator problem?

If you are running the genset, you are not using the inverter. The inverter takes the dc voltage from the coach batteries and converts it to 120 volts ac. You most likely have a tripped circuit breaker on the gen-set itself. It is located on the front panel of the gen-set.

RE: Tight turns with a Class A and trailer?

Just do what the big trucks do.... make wide right turns. Roadrunner is right on... "Get as far left as you can before making a right turn. Wait as long as possible to make the turn. Go slow and use your mirrors to keep an eye on the trailer."

RE: Propane vs. All electric

I prefer propane over all electric.. If camping in cooler weather, the propane furnaces will run all night without having to run the generator. I don't like electric heat pumps anyway.. they just don't provide the warmth of gas. Gas assorption refers are very efficent. You can run a gas refer on 30 gal of propane for over 250 days.

RE: Credit/Criminal Checks for 30+ days at campground?

I have heard og CG's in CA doing this... seems like it is very difficult to evict someone in CA for non-payment of rent. Oregon may be the same way. I would prefer to stay at a CG that did this... at least you know you are camping next to a drug dealer or pedifile.

RE: Winterize Air Pressure

40 psi... remove the ice maker line at the outside solinoid and let it drain out to the ground.

RE: Air Brake/Suspension Leak

The air bags could be deflating... they wouldn't show any decrease in air pressure since they have a separate solinoid controlling them. Next time notice if the coach gradually lowers as you hear the air escaping... if so, check the air lines and fittings running from the front tank to the air bags.

RE: PT Cruiser

Are you towing with the key in the "ACC" position or "OFF" position... should be the off position.

RE: Norcold Fridge

Move the flame sensor probe closer to the flame... It's job is to shut the system down if it does not sense the presence of a flame. try putting it closer to the flame you are getting.

RE: size of Onan generator ?

The genset is an "Onan".. the brand. There is a plate where the switch is located that should give the model number and output.

RE: inverter

Look at the amp rating of your tv and multiply by 120 to get the wattage required to run it.
JFG 11/26/08 09:07am Tech Issues
RE: inverter

"Will this work to power the 120 outlets ?" A 400 watt inverter will only supply 3.3 amps at 120 volts.... not much you can run on this. What do you want to run with the inverter?

RE: Oven

Push the thermostat knob in... you may have to hold it in about 30 seconds before attempting to light the pilot.

RE: Worn Out Shocks After 8000 Miles??

Make sure your repair center is legit... there was a scam several yeras ago where repair facilities would squirt some oil on the schocks and tell the owner that they needed new shocks. You can buy a set of rear shocks for a Ford E-450 for $200.00 I would RUN
