Do Not Overfill Your Fresh Water Tank!
Townesw replied to Rivernerd's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
@Rivernerd Remove the drawers on the left side of the drawer stack under the kitchen sink. Look for a hatch plate in the bottom of the cavity. If you have one you should be able to remove the overflow tube to check for and remove any obstructions. The service dept cut that hole and installed the hatch in May 2018 when I suspected that the hose clamp on the through-hull fitting was loose. I have on my to-do list (still) to enlarge that opening to allow easier access to that area between the hulls. I think the factory started placing that access hatch in trailers built after that.

@Steve Morris First question: If I correctly understand you in your posts following the post that included this picture, you say that your hot and cold lines are reversed in this picture. Is this correct? The plumbing would make better sense if your lines were reversed in that picture. @Steve Morris or @mossemi Second question: When running off the pump you are pulling water from the fresh tank and sending that water through the water heater to a diverter and back to the fresh tank until it is hot. In this (running off pump) scenario you are conserving fresh water and grey tank capacity. When running off city water you are still sending that water through the water heater to a diverter and back to the fresh tank until it is hot. If your fresh tank is already full the excess returned water will just go out the overflow? Third question: In the city water scenario you are only conserving grey tank capacity. Is this correct?

I need to replace the complete bathroom faucet assembly in our 2018 OEII Hull 313. I have entered a service ticket asking what is used in current production models but has anyone found an assembly that works better than either the faucet used in current production models or the old original Dura/Ramco model F-N-MK853-SN?

A day late posting but HELLO to the Oliver LEII parked at Ewen Pines Roadside Park on the UP on 9/17/2026. We were the Oliver blowing the horn. Saw you wave back! If you’re headed up the Keweenaw Peninsula check out Four Suns Fish & Chips across from the Quincy Mine. https://www.facebook.com/share/1D4iw9PFR9/?mibextid=wwXIfr Bill 313

I added the SS fender washers like @DavePhelpsdid. I later changed them out to black SS fender washers from McMaster Carr. Bill Hull 313

I’ve been using my sewer hose support wrong
Townesw replied to Townesw's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
There are only (3) rules of plumbing: 1. **** flows downhill 2. Payday is on Friday 3. Don’t bite your fingernails Bill 313 -
Apparently this is how you’re supposed to set up a sewer hose support EDITED 2 weeks later: I now understand that the owner has intentionally created a P trap in his sewer hose to hold water in the dip to seal off sewer gases because he keeps the grey drain open all of the time. @topgun2 alluded to this in his post but I didn’t catch on until 2 weeks later.

@2008RN what are the dimensions of your shackles and what material did you use? Bill

I used these to wire lights on a utility trailer. https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/d/b10128463/ What would be wrong with using these instead of heat shrink butt splice connectors to make brake wire connections under the trailer? Notice that they are IDC (Insulation Displacing Connectors) and that they are water resistant (they contain what I think is dielectric grease). Notice also that they connect up to 3 wires, as in the situation encountered on the street side connections. I don’t care for the typical IDC connector (usually blue) with the fold over and snap down piece, but these are much better and they are made in the USA by 3M. EDITTED TO ADD: According to the 3M website the conductor is tinned brass. I took one apart and used a file to remove the tin. The blade is brass, or at least some kind of yellow metal. Bill

Heck I just realized that mine is a 2018 trailer. I apologize for my mistake. Anyway, does this help any? Bill -

I have 2019 (correction 2018🤪) hull 313. What drawing do you want? None of the electrical schematics in my manual show either of the shore power outlets. -
