I have always thought about painting mine, but I would want the mirror housing to be smooth first if I did it.

Has anybody left their block in and asked the dealer to replace the EGR? I would think they would use that as a lame excuse to not have to replace it, claiming that I made a modification that voided the warranty.

Simple green works great, but you don't need to do that every time you wash in there. I usually use some of the leftover soapy water and and older sponge to hand wash all the dust off the visible plastic parts in the engine bay.

I already have a blocker plate, but I have not gotten around to the PCV reroute yet. I'm afraid to see how much crud has built up in there.

Nick, You'll never believe this, but remember that day when you got that first EGR code? Your truck must have infected my truck, because now I am getting EGR codes, for the first time since I blocked and sticked it. I'm getting P046C about once every three days. I have tried the stock...

How much prep did you have to do on the mirrors? Did you sand on the plastic surface at all, or did you just spray with adhesion promoter and go?

Go with the 5'er, no question. Most units have great storage bays under the front room. I have a short box and have done fine without a slider hitch. Just pay attention to the corner of the cab when backing up and don't jacknife it too much.

31' Wildcat Fifth Wheel, 31QBH. It has quad bunks in the back for the kids. It's really a great camper, have been happy with it. 8700lbs dry, and pulls great. I have triple-hauled with it too, towing a 4 seater sand rail on a trailer behind it.

I use it off and on. Try to put some in every few tankfulls. I swear the last time I put it in, my mileage seemed to go down about 2mpg. Anybody else had this happen?

Great writeup! I have the same resonator plug installed with the lock nut, and it has been great for a year now. It does not come loose. I need to do the PCV reroute next. Thanks for a great writeup.

Ben, you could have written an encyclopedia on it and people will still ask the same questions over and over. At least you are pretty good natured about it.

Found ya! It seems like it was only a few days ago when none of this had happened yet. :crazy:

I try to stay away from that part of town... :frown2:

Interested to know who's down here.
