A few maintenance questions
Monty replied to Karl C.'s topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Karl, I use Rotella 15w40 in my RSV, and I also used it in my '83. I like it alot, and they seem to shift better with the Rotella. That '83 is nearing the mileage where the 2nd gear issue is going to pop up, unless it has already been fixed. Do a search on this forum for "2nd gear issue", and you'll see what I mean. 2nd was pretty bad in my '83, but I just skipped 2nd. The '83 has enough power that you really can do without 2nd if you need to. Late '85s and up didn't have this issue. -
Glad to hear you and your Pop are doing better. Jameson will be in our thoughts here. Kids shouldn't have to deal with this stuff, it just makes me sick to see one have to go through something like that.

I didn't know hubs had security encryption. I use a cable modem and a Netgear wireless router...with encryption. I haven't used a hub in ages, so I guess they have come a long way since then. In my computer shop, I would usually have 10-15 PCs hooked up at any one time with a hub.

LOL, I'll pass. I'm having some more tomorrow night.

I like it! Mama wouldn't like that back seat though. She's spoiled to this Cadillac RSV rear seat.

Congrats!!! Personally, I woulda went for the b**bies....lol You WILL get b**bies, but they will be fulla milk, and won't last.

My scoot runs great. I couldn't ask for it to run any better. But.... since it has warmed up, I am noticing that my left leg gets warm. I stopped today, and touched the pipes. The left two pipes, I can only put my hand on for a second or so. The right two, I can leave my hand on. They are pretty cool to the touch. This was after about a 30 minute ride. Like I said...it runs great. The coil problem was already taken care of by Buddy. My only real issue is that one leg gets warmer than the other. Any ideas? P.S. Also, I cleaned the insides of the pipes when I put them back on last week. They still look shiny and new inside. I cleaned them to get an idea of how each side is burning. They are looking the same...like brand new.

If it is still laying there, take a turkey baster and suck it up, then put it back in.

We like ours alot. We like to camp, so it's just right for the tent, sleeping bags, clothes etc... It holds quite a bit. I sold that '83 a few months ago, but I kept my trailer. -
I wouldn't tell anyone else you dumped it. Where did it go? Bad news.
-
It's in fuse box 1, behind the right front cowling. 5 amp fuse.

Looks great! I'm gonna do mine JUST like yours....lol j/k:stickpoke:

Coal. "If you find electricity and plant operations an exciting career field, then this program may be for you. This 12- to 18-month training program leads to the position of Assistant Unit Operator. TVA has Assistant Unit Operators in both its fossil and nuclear plants. They control the flow of water, generation of steam, and production of electricity. They monitor equipment conditions and performance, accomplish preventive and minor corrective maintenance routines, and conduct process-control and failure analyses. In addition, they operate equipment such as turbines, condensers, pumps, valves, gates, scales, pulverizers, conveyors, fans, electric control boards, and chemical tanks. The training program consists of a combination of on-the-job and classroom instruction. Some training may be conducted at other locations other than the selected worksite. The position of SGPO requires students to be prepared for class, including homework assignments, out-of-class readings, pop quizzes, written exams, and oral exams. In addition, you will be required to exhibit skills required to perform certain tasks through the use of qualification cards. Upon the successful completion of training, the position of SGPO leads to exciting career opportunities within the operations career path beginning with the position of Assistant Unit Operator.

Power Plant Assistant Operator. I make electricity.

Mine were a little dry-rotted, and I had to air them up every time I mowed. I finally broke down and installed tubes in them, and now all is good.

At work, I have been in a class for almost a year. I have taken grueling exams after each section. Today was my final integrated oral exam, covering everything I have learned in the last year. I had to sit before a board, and answer all of their questions. Took about 4 hours. I came through it with flying colors. Now, I go on shift work, I will be eligible for more overtime, and I get a nice raise. Life is good! I will be doing OJT for 6 months, and then I have to take one more final oral exam...then I am all done...until I move up to the next level...lol. What a load off of my shoulders!

Yeah, they are soooo delicious, that they sell out pretty quick. He should have more really soon.

Glad to see you made it home. It was nice meeting the two of you. Anxiously awaiting the pics.

Did you ride the scoot down there? Which route did you take thru Tennessee? -
I think port a pottys would be an excellent idea.

Put Frank's buffalo wing hot sauce on your hand, and let her try to bite it. It works, and she probably won't wanna bite your hand anymore. Just the smell alone may do it. It's all about association. If she associates that taste/smell with biting your hand, it will deter her from doing it again. Unless she really likes hot sauce....lol.

Sorry to hear. You are in our thoughts here. RIP Salute!!

Both of you are in our thoughts here. Heal quickly.
