I just found you guys today and am very entertained. You are like Rehab Addict for old motor homes. My husband and I started out with pup tents 30 years ago, the a nice large Hillary wall tent which we put a windo unit a/c we zipped up around because I have a really sensitive heat intolerance. Then……we got this super old class c camper, motor reliable, tiny kitchen, bathroom/plumbing worked and 3 sleep areas, one over the cab for my daughter, the lower table/bed and a drop down bunk over it. Renovated the inside , repaired any safety issues. It was a great place to sleep cool and dry. But on the way home, a 35 mile drive, we found something no one had checked for, the windshield wipers didn’t work at all!!! Thank goodness it was just drizzle, we had to stop frequently. A great starter camper we passed on to our son who used it a few years until they started upgrading. We next switched to a quite small 20 ft 5th wheel, no problems with it, then to a 1994 Jayco 5th wheel which had been in a highway accident. Everything works great EXCEPT on a stormy campout we discovered that the super slider leaked, I mean bad! So we just did our final upgrade, a 2011 Keystone, a little shorter but in near mint condition. And we saddled our old one on our daughter and family to deal with its problems. It only leaked when the slider was out. I am love watching these renovations, mechanical included, and you guys are so much fun!❤️🤣🤣🥴🥴

I grew up in Iowa. They are the flannel sleeping bags.. They are old. As a female in her 60s I am oddly fascinated by this. I just bought a 89 Toyota dolphin. In good shape. I’m having new brakes put on it because they are getting worn but they passed inspection. Brakes are a good thing and I want them new. Mine was redone inside and the engine in 2006. So far everything works on it haven’t checked the battery. Engines in good shape it had an oil change new muffler, and new battery. It’s not a four-cylinder stick which I couldn’t drive anyway but I heard they’re good engines. Six cylinder. The only thing I think it needs is a new counter because it’s between the stove and the fridge. It’s got a little bit of a warp and I want a new one. 4 inch hole at the top inside in the cabinet. I only had it three weeks, but I needed a safety inspection of course and it passed. But I knew it would. I’ll get it back next week because they couldn’t get to the brakes till then. that’s because this mechanic is popular and he’s two blocks from my house and my husband used him since we’ve lived here and trustworthy. That was my little bit of senseless information that probably nobody cares about.

Interesting explanation of that carburator, the way it is constructed basically makes it a pneumatic PID controller with each individual element taking up a different part of that feedback loop. Pretty cool if you think about it.

Do you also love the interior of the camper? The wood and the cushions makes this camper look nice and cozy. I also love the little ducks on the tiles in the bathroom. What do you think of it?

Great Job. Love the video. Tech Tip from the couch potato. Advance the timing until you can just hear it "ping" // "detonation" under hard acceleration. Now, back off the timing about 3 degrees. This should produce a reading that is pretty close to your max Vaccuum gauge reading., and the best MPG. It also compensates for slop in the timing chain... variations in compression... carbon build up... etc. Again.... absolutely love the video.
