@jd1923 It hasn’t happened to me but it has happened to at least 3 people in the following thread https://olivertraveltrailers.com/forums/topic/3447-left-black-tank-clean-out-hose-on/

Cross-over of water from the black tank into the gray tank through the common vent absolutely can and has occurred. More than one owner has attached a black tank flush hose, turned it on and forgotten about it. When the black tank fills water rises up the black vent and spills over into the gray vent. If the shower drain valve is closed the water comes up through the shower drain. If the shower drain valve is open the gray tank fills and then the water comes up through the shower drain.

Are they sure it’s kitchen water? Are they adding water to the black tank using the No Fuss Flush fitting? If they are flushing the black tank and have let it get too full and the shower drain valve is closed the water from the black tank can back up in the black tank vent and flow over into the sink drain and rise up through the shower drain and fill the shower pan and could actually overflow the pan and flood the trailer floor. Do not rely on the tank level display when diagnosing water level and drainage problems, or any other time really. I apologize for the “ands” and the run-on sentence. Bill

Read my posts in this thread. I used a Lippert tinted glass insert because the door is a Lippert. Be sure to get the frame release clips and a new inside and outside frame because you will break some tabs while removing the frames. The new frames will also have new intact seals. After installing the clear tinted glass I wanted a blind that could be operated without having to open the screen door. I had a friend that sews make me a blind out of heavy curtain material and used 2 spring rods to position the blind in the screen door frame. The top spring rod can be lowered to allow a viewing area at the top.

I have just started studying replacement air conditioners and have seen references to Dreiha Atmos 4.4 vs. Tosot. Is one a rebranded version of the other, or are these 2 different units, or is one a clone of the other?

Talked to Kevin Searer at SDG Elkhart. Stopped by without an appointment. Walked in and said I would like some info on installing a Tosot in an Oliver. He showed me the one on the demonstration stand in the workshop and turned it on. He said that you can stay in the parking lot the night before your conversion. They have 30a hookup. They pull your trailer in at 8am and 3 hours later they are done. Same hole as Dometic. Control panel is on the front right corner of the air box. They replace the Dometic thermostat with a simple thermostat for the existing furnace. Only thing I didn’t like was the condensate running off the roof. I didn’t ask pricing because I wasn’t ready to buy.

Looks like we picked the wrong CG to stay at in Elkhart

We’re traveling through Elkhart in a couple of days. Other than the RV Museum what do we need to see? Also, I’m a firm believer in carrying parts. Are there any real good RV parts retailers there? I’m especially interested in acquiring a Viair compressor kit. Is there a brick and mortar there that stocks Viair compressors?

@DavePhelpsI too stopped way before the spec torque of 85 lbf-inch. I like your SS fender washer idea.

@jd1923Yes Sir, the app displays pressure and temperature. I really like the Dill system but I want to do away with the windshield display. I’ve been studying the internet and my truck’s RPO codes trying to come up with a way to display the trailer sensor feedback on my 2019 (built August 2018) Duramax Infotainment System. I have the I06 radio and the Z82 towing package but I don’t have the additional RPO’s to do what I want to do. Some information online says that you can’t add the stuff I need but I’ve come across discussions in forums that say that you can add add stuff after production.

Is anyone using the new Dill Bluetooth TPMS? If so, how do you like it? I’ve been using a Dill TPMS since early 2019 and I really like it. I don’t want a system that uses externally mounted sensors on the valve stems. It’s time to replace the sensors mounted inside the tire and I see that Dill has a new Bluetooth version available without the dash or windshield mounted display. https://www.dillvalves.com/product_cpt/1604-v-bluetooth-aftermarket-tpms/

Pulled about 1000 miles with the Rockstar Commercial Tow Flap. I’m pleased with it so far. I’ll post a better picture later.

The wire wrapped around the axle is probably the bead wire. I worked in radial passenger and light truck tire manufacturing for 32 years.

Has anyone tried to use 4 year old Dicor butyl tape BT-1834-1? Does it dry out or get brittle? It has never been out of the plastic bag it came in. Website tech specs say 18 months - 2 year shelf life. @SeaDawgI know that you use butyl tape. What has been your experience? Thanks, Bill
