Refrigerator and Generator

Last summer Mark joined a couple of Chinook owners forums where folks with a lot more knowledge than he has (most of them any way) about RV maintenance in general and Chinooks in particular discuss their problems, experiences, solutions, joys with what most of them consider the best motor home on wheels. It was there that he learned that my refrigerator is on recall. It seems there was a potential to catch fire when operating on propane. That was scary information considering I have logged nearly 40,000 miles and many many nights dry camping (without hookups). I'm happy to report that I've been in the shop and am now save and ready for our trip South.

While I was in the shop, Mark had them look into why my generator was getting so hard to start. It would start and run well once started but getting there was as real struggle. He had thought that probably all it needed was some routine maintenance - cleaning, adjusting, and maybe a new spark plug and air cleaner - but it turned out to be the starter solenoid going bad. Now I'm not only safe but ready to provide electricity when needed

The adventure continues at the end of next week. -Q-
