About a month ago I dropped off the Travco at a new mechanic, Sound Avenue Equipment in Riverhead, NY. I drive by there on a regular basis and have always seen RV's both new and old being worked on. Unfortunately, the owner had a mishap and was out of action for a while but last Friday I picked up the Travco. The engine was running rough and giving me a hard time anytime I went over 45mph. The alternator belt was a bit loose and a the temperature and gas gauge were not working.
When I picked it up, Bill, one of the mechanics told me the fuel filters had some water in them and were changed. They put a new sensor in and the temperature gauge worked great. The fuel gauge remains a mystery for now. The sensor works on its own, the gauge works on its own, it is properly grounded but all together........ no reading on the fuel gauge. Saved that one for another day.
So Sunday was the test. I loaded up the dogs and took the Travco for a test drive. We put on about 120 miles and......... it ran great!. Not one problem. Thank you Bill and everyone else at Sound Avenue. Keeping my finger crossed it stays that way.
