i changed the mac valve out on the bode air door today hoping it would fix my problem.  i did learn about how to adjust the opening and closing speed/rate on the air entrance door

on the mac valve there are two set screws.  they are pilot screws to adjust the airflow.  the top one as you look at the valve in the unit is the open and the bottom is the close.  counterclockwise is faster and clockwise is slower.  it takes a little playing with but i got it where i want it.  

it is best to start with them most of the way clockwise so the door doesnt slam open and close if you put a new valve in.  

then back them off a turn or two and check and repeat.

Tom, my Bode door seems to be closing at a reasonable speed, but the front end of the door does not always come in flat, causing the door to not close fully, or sometimes pop close after binding. If I am on the outside of the coach,and I put 1 finger on the forward edge with just light pressure the door closes flat and slides up to locked position just fine. Do you know how to adjust this? I am thinking the small rod on the top of the door?
Thanks
Mike
