Hi Claudia, So glad you solved the problem. Wendy and I met you at the rally in 2022 and you showed us the work you were doing on the window vents. I'm wondering if you patented that work and are producing it. I saw the cover in your Oliver picture. Best of luck on your travels, Wendy & John

Mike...thanks! We just left Steve on Monday from the Maine rally. With Mossemi and Steve next door, and help from Kevin on my Xantrex, I came away with an unbelievable amount of info concerning all things Oliver :) Was the cable difficult to push back through to the valve?

Mike, Do you just loosen the set screw and slowly pull the cable out through it's sheathing using the handle at the rear panel? Then clean/lube and reinsert? What lube did you use? Mine is pretty tough to operate. Thanks much, John

Congratulations ya'll !!!!!!!!!! 40 for us this month John

Hi Ken, Do you by chance have a part # for those Bulldogs? Is it 1213-0656 ? John

Welcome Craig and MaryLou! MAX Burner is so right about all the info found in this wonderful forum. Happy Trails, Wendy & John

Have FUN!!!

Ask Melissa to show you her dogs, they are a treat :) We stay there when we get OTT service. John PS The LED fan is installed... :) Thanks!

Thank you..........

Nice blog GG :) John

Follow up... the propane sensor went off this AM and turns out the gas line connection came a little loose when I reinstalled the top. Turned off the propane bottle and headed to Ace hardware. I initially used tape that qualified, according to the label, as suitable for gas line connections. It was gray in color. I didn't have the yellow that I have always used before. Took back apart this afternoon and replaced with the proper yellow tape. All is well for now...according to my sniffer. John

We found 2 in our top drawer :) They push through the hole too easily. John

Thank you I admit being a little "slower" than the average Ollie person and after reading your post I checked my overheads ... EUREKA...I would never have thought to look there for a replacement. Mine are not threaded but they are a direct match and we now have a "new" hatch for our dog house. The 3 little tabs on the original broke off and I was lucky to have it not blow off while traveling. I used some of my high dollar glue I got at Quartzsite this year to fashion some tabs to keep the hatch in place in the overhead. John

Thanks for the walkthrough. Both screws from underside one burner came out...very fortunate Wendy found them both and we were able to use your help to fix everything. I did have to disconnect the gas line and after using gas thread tape and follow up with a "sniffer" all turned out well. We did use blue locktite on the screws. No evidence of previous locktite application Thanks, John

Thanks for all your work! John

Mine is TST and I trust the readout for the spare...so far :)

Thanks...good to know. Mine shows different pressures and temperatures from day to day (for the spare), so I'm hoping it isn't a bogus reading. Next time I have the cover off I'll compare the readout with a gauge. My sensor is external and on the stem. John

Yep...

We have the same tires...if I can them to ever wear out I'll probably switch over to metal stems then. 37,000+ miles and going strong (probably just jinxed myself ) John

Really didn't think about my elect. cord... I'll start disconnecting. Thanks.
