out of hibernation

[Ken B]

That is it only with a much smaller filter than I was suggesting. I also an re-posting the URL. It looks like your email program split it.

Thanks Rob.

I never updated, we drove perfectly the 110 miles on Thursday in the rain. It did not pour like expected (though lightening and thunder and downpour
after arrival)

Went my 55-65 on the highway. The hydraulic wipers leave a lot to be desired, I was constantly turning them on/off.

Two POs ago my furnace was removed and a water heater put in it's place. A CAT heater was installed in the bottom part of the entry cabinet (where
the vacuum would go) and it's vented to the fridge vent area. I worried this wouldn't be enough so I bought an infrared heater, setup to blow from
between the driver's side back. The heater stayed on low all weekend, and toggled back to high when we were there (at 1500 watts I didn't know how
much I trusted the wiring, on low it's 850 watts). But we really froze at night, low 30's the daytime highs were only mid 40s and WIND.

I was thinking of cutting/fitting some foil bubble wrap stuff to put over the windows on the inside. Would that help? I feel drafts coming in the
window; so I figure it can't hurt.

Heading back home today, my LP tank gauge inside reads under 1/2, on the tank closer to 1/4, so I guess I need to figure out that ratio/offset

thanks for all the help last week
