RE: Easy toilet fix
Never use a petroleum based lube on rubber. You should use only a silicone based lube. Vaseline is petroleum based.
Tell that to my 6 year old toilet being used full time!

RE: Easy toilet fix
I have no idea what you were doing to your toilet. It's a ball and flush ball seal combo. The seal is set into a lip. To remove wear a glove it you choose and grab the edge of the seal and pull towards the center of the hole and remove.
Now the seal is removed scrub it til it's clean. Now apply a thin layer of Vaseline to the bottom surface and carefully install with the ball closed by pushing it into place. Once mostly set open the ball and finish pushing the seal into place. Always be careful NOT to drop the seal down the hole!!!
You probably just knocked off some of the crystalized "STUFF" when pushing on the seal.

RE: Idle/Drive Ratio
Been looking at my GM pickup, transit I drive at work, none show both idle and drive hrs. This must be a Ram fummins option?!?!?.....ooops....errrrrr Cummins option?!?!?
The trucks I've had with hr meters only list hrs combined. I've been in the 20-30 mph relm. I don't personally do a lot of interstate driving as a percentage.

RE: Water Pressure Regulator
LOTS of things to "Worry" about. Having your water shut off at night is not one of them. May as well turn off the propane tanks as well. But that would mean you could get cold. OK then I will use a small electric heater. OH NO that could get knocked over by the dog and the shutoff may not work and catch the RV on fire.
Should I mention not going outside because the sky could........., naw I may take that risk.
I wear my hard hat for those occasions ! !
Good Man!!!

RE: Idle/Drive Ratio
Just curious how my truck compares.
2015 Ram Cummins, just under 87k miles and I bought it new. I'm currently showing the following:
Idle: 95 Hours
Drive: 2736 Hours
How about you guys?
You are doing REALLY well!!!
I am at 350 idle and 2,348 drive, I am at 95,085 miles. I don't feel like I idle much. When I travel I never shut the truck off as in when I get fuel and hit the rest area. I never remote start mine or let it warm up.

RE: Water Pressure Regulator
FYI if you check your water pressure and it's lets say 60 that does NOT mean it won't be 100 psi later. I know this for a FACT.
Smart to use one IMHO. I have a RV lot that the pressure is around 80psi and have my WATTS set to 60 and have owned it for at least 10 years of full time usage with zero issues. Plenty of flow unlike the CHEAP units.
