Replace slow in-block thermostat, leaky fan thermal clutch, sqealing alternator, drilled drain holes in alternator support bracket so the rebuilt alternator will not soak in water and corrode up like the last one.

To do - check AC system pressures, top off with R152 if necessary, the compressor clutch is cycling a bit too often. Figure out wiring on switch that connects house and starting batteries, so they both charge on shore power.

I installed 3 Maxair covers on my vents, 2 reg. and one a fan. Easy and took about 1 beer only. Now I can leave the vents open all the time and not worry about the rain soon to be snow.

Next project is batteries.

Safe and Happy camping everyone, Robert

Shampood the carpet. Now it looks so nice. (we had an accident with a Mojoto).Also tried out the full hookups we installed on the side of the house. I am sooo loving those hookups!

Replaced the plastic flapper on the outside vent from the rangehood exhaust. This was the second one that broke off in two years so I had my local metal shop make a better one from metal. I painted it and even added a rubber gasket to help keep out cold since I travel all year in COlorado weather. Works great.
