By using a dual thermocouple temperature monitor I was able to learn a couple things about the dash heat in my 93 coach.

On a 40 degree outside temperature day the heater produced about a 40 degree rise when the blower was on low and a bout a 50 rise when on high. That was strange since if the heater core was limiting the heat those temperature rises would be reversed. It turns out that my air-rest vents are pulling air in and not pushing air out unless the fan for those is turned on high and then the output is pretty anemic. I'll have to tear into the heater box to find out how that is possible but it explains some of my limited dash heat. When I taped over those outlets, the temperature rose by another 10 degrees.

The other thing I learned is that the solenoid at the coolant boost pump is needed or the heat is always somewhat on. I had removed mine to determine if it was limiting my dash heat, it wasn't though it did allow the "vent" setting air to warm 10 degrees even with the lever on the heater control to be all the way to the cold side.

Long story short, it was a long story, on the second day of my trip to Memphis my supply tank pressure started dropping and kicked the engine air compressor on about every 6-8 minutes, far more frequently than it had been. I isolated the leak to the uses downstream from the ball valve that isolates the front air distribution block. I finally eliminated the leak by cycling the step cover. Since the cover had not moved in the 3 years I've owned the coach that may have allowed some seals to take a leaking set. I will need to cycle all the air driven stuff now and again to keep the seals functional. Just thought I'd pass on a weird experience.

Great project for a retired engineer,

We left WI Friday night after work, caught some sleep at the Pilot south of St. Louis then drove through a few monsoon rainstorms in MO and MS.
Headwinds / crosswinds all the way, 1002 miles, 70 mph cruise, almost 8 mpg.

We're spending the week at Fountainbleu State Park in LA.
Our site has full hookups so I spent some time yesterday after we arrived de-winterizing.

Sunny and in the 80's today, a nice change from the Midwest spring.

Hello I am looking at the Precision temp twin temp junior. Does anyone one have any experience with this system?  

http://www.precisiontemp.com/rv-and-trai...d-trailer/

Last year I replaced all of the rear air bags and control valves.  Recently I replace the front air bags and one control valve, and stopped all under coach air leaks.  During 48 hours, the 110 volt compressor ran 1.8 hours in level mode with the system on automatic.  Assuming the compressor runs for 10 minutes each time, it runs about every 4.5 hours with two people living aboard.  It seems to me that I do not have any large air leaks, or should I expect something better.

On my coach, it appears I have 4 1/4  diameter landing lights for docking lights. They are held in a white rubbery waterproof cover. As I was trying to remove a burned out light from the rubber cover, it ripped. Tons of replacement bulbs available, but the rubber boot is really what I need. 

Do any of you have a source, or even know what this cover would be called?

If not, OK. I'll try to use standard grommet mounts.

All,
Are the head lights and day driving lights available at NAPA, Autozone, or O'Reilly's? I noticed on Thursday afternoon that I had a day driving light that was burned out. Anybody replace the head lights or day driving lights with LED's? Thanks in advance for any and all comments.
