I lost about a gallon of fluid when my gauge sprang a leak. This is the fluid that operates the fan and perhaps the steering. Should I buy hydraulic fluid and if so what weight? If Dextron III is recommended, can I put in synthetic?

Just wanted to share that O'Reilly Auto has Delo 100 40W for $12.99/Gallon! They may not stock it but had it in 1 day when I ordered it. If we get it from them maybe they will continue to stock it;

After I extended the slides I had no inside lights on the front slide. It was a blown 20amp fuse. I replaced it and all the lights worked. However that night the fuse was blown again. I didn't use the lights during the day other than to check that they were working.
So I must have a short somewhere. Since it happened after the slide was extended I'm thinking it must be a pinched wire that feeds the slide.
Any idea where to start looking?

I decided to pull my front wheels and replace my bearings and seals. They were the old grease style caps and seal, I didnt realize how simple and cheap this upgrade was. IMHO a must do for these old classics.
Here are the part #s I used
Outer bearing set set 406 $18.95ea
Inner bearing set set 412 $43.50ea
Stemco seal 3828036 $31.95ea
Hub cap 3434024 $35.60ea

Total $260.00

Ok gurus bought my wife the sl65 amg. But she doesn't know I bought and she keeps wanting to go look at cars. It's being shipped here next week. How should I surprise her. Have it in the garage when she leaves one morn. Have it a work when she leaves? Trying to find some fun way to do it. Ideas?

There has been a lot of discussion regarding batteries, and you may recall that I elected to install twelve 6 volt golf cart batteries. Last night I finally had a chance to see how well they worked. With the old 8D batteries, I could only run the minimum load while boondocking for 4 or 5 hours. Last night I left running the Directv, Amana, portable freezer, compressor and fans. I used 1/8 of my battery capacity in 8 hours. Then turned on the TV, stereo, lights and coffee maker for an additional two hours. At the end of 10 hours I had used 1/5 of my capacity. Obviously, I am pleased.

OK , Now that I got a few peoples attention !!!!

hi, do any of you have the part numbers for the hwh slide solenoids and check valves?

my manifold has 14 solenoids on it. 6 for each slide (both of mine are flat floor slides) and 2 for the genny compartment

my slide creep is either a check valve or solenoid valve. i am betting anyway
