Just when I thought the fridge was the worst of my trouble, we are yet stranded again. New S&J motor with less than 2,000 miles on it and we are at a garage because 20 mins into our departure from the campground the coach was making the dreaded knock. Pulled off the highway and fortunately there was a service garage less than 2 miles away and made it there. Mechanic thinks it's a rod just be listening to it. I pulled the plug wires one at a time to hopefully narrow it down but still makes the same terrible noise regardless. Shop we're at now is already swamped and not really equipped for our rig but they are letting us crash in the parking lot till morning. Plus to add insult to injury it looks like the shop in Utah jacked up the coach and bent the radiator support along with the radiator. My fault for not looking over the coach more thoroughly when we picked it back up from getting the motors swapped.Just venting here not a whole lot I can do at this point. Thanks
Jim and Jen stuck in Ohio till further notice.
