That Honda is coming out Ken. One way or another. To be fair, the Honda does have a backstory. It was clearly ridden hard, put away wet, and I bought it for $200 off Craigslist. Sometimes you get what you pay for, and while for about a half dozen trips it worked like a charm after I did a pretty good service to it, the last half dozen trips have been nothing but one different trouble after another. Frankly it now completely reminds me of my Onan, which I battled for about 8 years and had very intermittent success keeping running.
I'm currently looking for an Emerald to shove in the hole. It's getting to the point where if we can't get reliable AC when going down the road, my wife and kids aren't going to have any interest in the GMC. It's just not optional in Alabama summer heat. I'm half tempted to buy a cheap contractor unit and throw it on the platform on the back. Sure it'll be ugly, but at least it will be new, cheap, and easily worked on.
On the upside, the rest of the coach ran great, although my fan clutch is coming on much too frequently and is now starting to squeal, so I'll be investigating that problem before it gets any worse.
Thanks,
