    Chateau 24F, Winterize Instructions ???

    I have not found any comprehensive instructions to winterize my Thor Chateau 24F. There are general winterizing instructions in the owners manual but not specific to the 24F. I'm looking for the details for blowing out the lines such as where to connect the compressor and which valves to open...

    2002 E350 SMB with factory installed air compressor?

    Hi all, trying to track down where this fitting goes, and some have said propane (rig does have the tank, but I've never seen a propane fitting like this) and others have said on board air, which this fitting appears to be, but... did SMB ever install factory air on the rigs as an option? TIA...

    Air Compressor Replacement

    Thinking about doing the air compressor swap myself ( I was leaning toward hiring it out, but read about following bolt torque or cover could warp and got really scared to hire it out). My question is how to handle the removal of the power steering pump and hoses. Any tips? Like which hose to...

    hooking compressor directly to house batteries

    I'm going to be buying a Viair 400p auto air compressor to use for airing up tires (of course) but also to blow out my water lines in the winter as needed. The Viair manual says to connect the compressor to the (chassis) battery and have the motor running when using it to prevent draining the...

    Air compressor fuse

    The extreme air compressor in our 2012 E350 SMB suddenly quit working. I found the circuit breaker and that was fine. I’m thinking it might be the fuse but can’t find it. Can anyone tell me where it might be?

    Air Compressor

    Living in Texas Gulf Coast, we do not need to winterize our rig for more than a few weeks. Would prefer to not go through the mess and waste of using antifreeze. Therefore, what air compressor do you use for blowing out the water lines to winterize them? Is it the same one you use to fill your...

    Air Compressor

    Hello This thread is directly related to this thread: Pop-Top Power-Lift Package I am considering the following much cheaper solution than going down to SMB West to have them install a much more costly service: Aluminess Penthouse Top Lift Attractive in price. One drawback, I do not have an...

    Air Compressor Suggestions

    Recently, while camping above 7000' for about a month the nitrogen filled tires on my travel trailer dropped (in all 4 tires) from 65 psi to 55 psi. The tow vehicle (regular air) dropped from 60 psi to about 52 psi. No place I went had nitrogen, and very few gas stations have air compressors...

    Air Compressor

    Okay, probably a stupid question (I know, there are none) however, in the 12 volt schematic for my '83 Funlite it shows the wiring to the air compressor. My question is where is it and (other than providing compressed air) what is it used for in the trailer? There is no other reference to it...

    Air Brake Compressor - 94 Bluebird - 5.9l Cummins

    Hey all, The past few weeks I've had a few issues and now I think I'm stuck. First, had been driving the bus for about 30 min and stopped. Turned the bus off and about 10 min later went back to start it again. It wouldn't start. Try calling any mobile mechanic and nobody will come since...

    Advice/Insights needed - replacing air compressor

    Hi people I have a 1998 International 3800 with the t444e (7.3 Navistar). I have to replace the air compressor, which is a Bendix Tu-Flo 550. It seems pretty straightforward, but because I've not done this before I thought I would toss it out to those of you with more experience and technical...

    Air Compressor Hooked to Toilet?

    I'm wondering if anyone here has used a Microphor toilet that requires both water and air lines to function? It seems like a kind of cool system, but I'm a bit hesitant to tap my air lines ... but I suppose I could find a way to access the air. Here's a diagram of how the toilet works ...

    Air system in Voltage?

    I am looking at dropping a DC Air compressor and Tank system in my 2013 Voltage 3990. I am trying to figure out how much current I can draw through the dc converter. Does anyone know what the Amperage rating on the stock converters is? The other option would be a direct wire to the battery...

    Seneca air compresor

    Recent trip to Daytona and I heard air from air tank bleeder leaking on startup. It's done this before and it sealed up after it got moisture on it. Well, it didn't stop this time. By the time I got to Defuniak Springs in Florida I decided to have it looked at cause there was a Freightliner shop...

    Air leak??

    I've got a leak in my system somewhere, but can't seem to locate it, or perhaps I'm missing something and need to know where to start. Our compressor charges fine and cuts out at 120-125 it then slowly leaks to about 100 before it charges again. It exhausts fine and all other gauges and...

    Portable air compressor recommendation for winterizing

    I winterize our Jayco 2013 X20E Travel Trailer by draining the hot water tank, then blowing compressed air through the lines. It always works great and is simple. The problem is we have to keep it in a lot some distance away. So rather than bring it home after every trip, I'm thinking of...

    Air Compressor Troubles!

    Hi, I've got a decent problem going on with my compressor. I was headed to take the bus in for emissions and suddenly lost power steering. I managed to get the bus off the road, but then lost most all of the air pressure in the brake system. Upon further research, I figured out that the...

    Portable tire inflator

    Was wondering if anyone knows of a portable tire compressor that will inflate RV tires at 100 psi. Recently got a nail in tire with a slow leak and found out the hard way that the normal tire compressors at most gas stations cannot inflate RV high pressure tires. In addition, makes it...
