while laying on my belly board (thanks blaine) cleaning and inspecting yesterday i ran across 2 questions,
above my gas pedal and operated a close to full throttle there appears to be a switch or reostat, can anyone tell me what this switch is meant to accomplish?
dash vent and controlls, this is a 75 model eleganza with early year vin, i notice that slide switch easily slides to cold side, but will not slide all the way to hot side, makes me think adjustment since also blows warm air all the time.
do i pull front of dash face to access or, top of dash with the 2 screwss one on each side?
back in compartment where propane tank is, i have sometype of valve, looks plastic, i thought it had something to do with black tank drain since it looks similiar without the gate part, but my drain is drivers side rear, any idea what this may be for, ?
lastly, while inspecting brakes yesterday for noise i found in rear passenger side bearings and pads and all seemed good, grease was like a graphite gray in color, i wish i knew brand because it seemed to be good stuff. passenger rear wheel, brakes were at wear part of brake which was noise, but bearing had no greese it in, outer dust shield has a little that was like a medium brown looking stuff, bearing not burnt looking but had no info on at all reference to brand.
i assume it all got hot and melted grease out? what the ...?
while shopping for bottle jack at tracter supply i saw something that made me wonder.
metal ramp, it seemed to be designed to back onto with our or similiar dual wheel set up. claim was back rear tire onto, and middle tire would then be lifted off ground, or drive onto with middle tire and rear then is off ground. it looked like maybe a neat idea, has anyone seem this and tried it?
