    240v water heater element

    Nelson When I replaced mine I bought the adapter that attaches to the 4 bolt plate and which allows you to use a screw in element which is easier to find and easier to install. Emery Stora > > Thanks all for the feedback, > Lowe’s has them for 11 bucks. > > Sent from my iPad > >> >>...

    240v water heater element

    That is what I use. It heats the water just fine and draws less current so you won’t trip a breaker if the water heater is on and the air conditioner or microwave kicks on. It also won’t burn out as easily as a 120 volt element. Emery Stora > > Thanks Marsh, > So it will heat the water...

    Front brake part #'s

    Dave I loaned my Warner tool to a GMC owner who was a stranger to me. No deposit. I gave him a demonstration before giving it to him. After repeated requests, It was over 4 months before I got it back. He had incorrectly used the seal setting disc to push out the bearing and bent the rim of the...

    Michelin Tires - Agillis 225-75-R16

    Hi Bruce Yes the ride would be harsher at the higher tire pressure but there would never be a reason to put that much pressure into the tire. That is really just an indication that it is a stronger tire. Your motorhome would rarely be loaded more than 12,000 pounds or 2000 pounds per tire. So...

    Recommended C/O and gas detector?

    It is generally recommended that a smoke detector be replaced every 8 years and a carbon monoxide detector every 5 years. Some people also have a propane detector which also usually has a 5 year life. Sometimes there is a combined carbon monoxide and propane detector. Some of these detectors...

    Burping" the engine cooling system

    Yes. It is necessary. It should do itself after a few heating/cooling cycles through the overflow tank but you’ll have to add fluid. You should also turn the heater lever on (open the valve if you put one in your heater hose). Another good way to get rid of the air is to fill using the Preston...

    Rear control arm material

    You should be working on an electric drive for the rear wheels. They make electric hubs strong enough to power the GMC. Combine that with batteries and a small diesel generator to fit in the engine compartment and it should work. Emery Stora > > Hal, > I’ve been thinking hard for some time...

    HVAC controls

    Yo cannot get replacement discs for the main control valve. Over time, 40+ years, the rubber disc dries out and it leaks. You can take out the disc and take a flat piece of glass with a piece of #400 or 600 wet or dry sandpaper on the glass and rub the disc on the sand paper with water to remove...
