Re: ENGINE OIL AND FILTER RECOMENDATIONS

Older engines do not RESPECT the use of full synthetic oils. They are stuck on old dinosaur/conventional oils. Respect to me means adding an extended time between oil changes.

Re: Fire escape windows - how to use?

My screens slide open in the track as do most. I know this because I get beer given to me through the window and I have not had to "kick out" a single :lol: screen. Again any window large enough to get out of IS an escape window.

Re: Allison 3060 transmission

The square cut gaskets are Allison part # 29501469. Mel and I discussed this back in 2021 on this forum. I had a hard time finding square ones anyway, so I reused my old ones as they were just a separation seal and not a "leaker" issue seal. I am happy with that!

Re: Upgrade batteries to LiFePO4 Battery and problems with Prosine Inverter

I told him to go back to his flooded lead acids. I always precharge my inverter with a capacitor before hooking up my 600ah of Zooms batt...

Re: Fresh water tank 1995 Serengeti how is it mounted?

I saw someones Safari who's tank was overfilled or not venting out of the overflow and it did bend the angle iron a while ago. I always check that the vent dumps a bit of water as I top off the tank. I had my tank out last year to fix a previous owners misguided 4" long screw through the floor ...
