AC Shroud Blew Off

Has anyone had this happen to them? Just sitting in a parking lot, it blew off during a storm and smashed into a dozen pieces. Is this something we can replace ourselves (not very handy, mind you) or do we need professionals?

Well, it was in the fall when we last tried it, so operating on that theory, I will open it up and maybe it will not do it now. I love these suggestions! Keep 'em coming!

Propane Valve Replacement

Does anyone know how much it might cost to replace the propane valve at a repair shop? Ours has a leak...when we turn it on there is a hiss. Just wondering what we might be looking at. I don't think it could really cost all that much, but who knows?

Was this someone from here?

Last minute transmission problems caused us to abort using our B190 for the Florida trip this year, but while we were down there we saw another B190 in Siesta Key (Wed, Feb.17), with the number 689 in large numbers on the back. Anyone here? We also saw a B190 sitting in an Airstream Sales/Service lo...

Yes, we do. Looking forward to taking it down to Florida next week for a 10 day trip (from New Jersey). Last year it was unable to go with us...this year it should ride like a dream!

$6 Million Van

It's a good thing I love this van, or I could be really annoyed. Since last year, new computer, new (used) instrument panel, new tires, new transmission. Motorhome - the "motor" part is trying me, the "home" part is GREAT!

Thanks for the information. We'll be replacing ours due to age, as you said. Happy New Year!

Best Tires...?

I was wondering what brand/type tires you all have and like the most. Which ones should we stay away from? Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!

1996 B190 Speedometer/Stalling Problems

We haven't been able to take our van on a trip since the beginning of the year because of problems. Chassis is a Ford E350. Speedometer needle flips wildly and has been doing this for a while. Didn't matter whether we were going uphill or down, or flat. It was ok because it was still driveable (alth...

Great bike rack

A couple of months ago I was asking what type of bike rack would be best for our B190. When we took our trip down to Florida, we used the ladder bike rack that Camping World sells. It worked out great for our 2 bikes, and was very easy to load. Also, it just may be the most inexpensive option out th...

Dewinterizing Questions

I've definitely got spring fever!

I was wondering if there is a set of instructions for dewinterizing the B190. Also, we live in a condo development...where is the best place to do the dewinterizing?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
