RE: landing gear issue
I vote for the lube job. It sure helped mine but I put more than two pumps in.
Also The top cover can be popped off and some gear oil added there to get things started faster. It just seeps out the bottom and helps with the rust on the feet. ;)

RE: Toilet burping
Sounds like a classic "poop pyramid" prob.
Get one of those flexible wands with the spinner on the end and blast that problem away.
A search on this site should produce a lot of hits

RE: Thor Industries now has $14 billion in backlogged orders
I think it is just another "covid generated rumor or whatever"
The three RV lots in Springfield IL are loaded with towable units. :h

RE: City water hookup leaks
If flushing the check valve doesn't fix it, a quick temporary fix is to just screw a garden hose plug into the fitting. If that's not on hand, an inline garden hose shut off valve or even a common 'Y' adapter with shut offs will work.
Yep I carry one of those just in case. That was after the school of hard knocks. ;)

If it were mine, I would pay the freight to get a FORD computer hoked up to it. Why not start there first?

RE: Stolen Catalytic Converter
That reminds me of an ole 77 Caprice that I had that somebody had put a test pipe in. If you ran a half tank of AMACO ultimate thru it and then hit the smog test it would romp thru there in flying colors. :h

RE: Tell me about your 2011-16 F250 6.2L
I agree with the wizard on the ride empty. That thing will beat you up.
I like my 2012. Normally we make at least 1 trip across the Smokies each year. Tow 10K and never get below 8.7 mpg. Crew cab short box, works fine without a slider.
At age 77, I think this one will take me to the end of the road.
I do have the optional 4.30 diffy.
In regards to getting groceries, mine knocks out just at 13.8 mpg.

RE: Slide out clicks at button, doesn't move
I would see if the drive motor is visible. If so maybe have someone toggle the button with a volt meter on the driver motor leads. No power, then it isn,t the motor.
Or put the leads on the batt posts and hit the switch. No big draw it probably isn.t the motor.

RE: After market carburetor
well for the price I would consider giving it a try. I have done a few on other type motors and all have been a success.
Lots of quick echoes on "chinese junk" when more than likely some of the stuff they run is the same to start with.

RE: Firman generator on sale at Costco

RE: Paperwork
I got stopped in Jan in MD and got a warning ticket for the following
Couldn't find registration (found it before we moved
Handicap permit hanging on rear view mirror
no front tag (not required in NC)
Speeding 45 in a 35
no proof of insurance
Now that is what I call a "shake down."

RE: removing shades & valance
Man it has been a long time.
As I recall mine are screwed right into the wall. Used a long screw bit. Finding those screw heads was a challenge.
