(Update below) Spent yesterday at the memorial service for Janies Mon, Mary, at the Cape Canaveral National Cemetary in Mims Florida……

……….. It’s an honor to celebrate the life of such a powerful woman.  Those that knew her knew this…….

On the way out to Mims, there’s a new boat ramp and overlook at Midwayout in the lowlands where airboats rule.  A nice vista, there was a Roadtrek and some class C hanging out…….nice view….. Out Hwy 50 east out of Orlando.

I was interested to hear from my son who now off the still living in his van there’s an awesome lifestyle for folks out there on the road.  He really likes the lifestyle so has taken care of where he’s living……he lives everywhere and nowhere…….   There are several out there on the road full timing in a GMC.

I know it’s not unusual for those that are doing it now….. I’d tell you I can’t wait for Janie and I in JayGee out there ourselves.……..Currently, JayGee is suffering the same thing to your coach if you don’t drive and use it………yep, he won’t run!  So now I need to bring HIM back to the road too!  Just ah thing right?…..

…..i think we found a problem with the carberator.  Yep that’s the carb filter..

WIX 330-48

Always carry an extra if you’re running a carb.  This motor will be getting a FiTech fuel injection system.  We have several videos on these systems…..take a look over on Motorhome Rehab Ranch.

This is one of the tire distributer who supply several brands of tires.  Unless you specify we have found Firestone Transforce tire work well in our application…..225×75/E 16″ is what we use.  I6.5″ Firestones seem to no longer be available…..check with a local dealer but there aren’t any in Central Florida!  Honestly, I know it hurts but 16.5″ rims and tires are just not supported today.  Time to get some 16″ rims.  On those we use ION 16″ dually rims. Give us a call if it’s time.  The thing about dually rims is dealers buy them in sets of 6….2 front, 4 rears……problem is we need 6 fronts!  It causes inventory problems so it’s difficult to get what you need.

Anyway, the nice thing about picking up our tires direct is I can check out the date codes to make sure it’s fresh……i mean tires are like fruit?   This plump and juicy tire was born the 35 week of 2021.

So yes, today is video day and yes there’s a video on motors……but way there’s more……dont call I forgot to talk about a compression test!  Doing parts 2 right now……see ya later

(Update)

Ok, video update in can…….good thing we caught that!  Scarlett will post that one tomorrow….there will be another one Thursday so stay tuned… …..and like I said……..forgot compression……..hey but how bout all that other stuff……..im just sayin
