Bob. I agree with Jim, if your aluminum tank is in good condition, (no dents or heavy corrosion) it can be re-certified. Part of the recertification will...
You indicated that you had installed batwing antennas on your Avions. I need to do the same to my 34W and wonder about installation. Did you use the existing...
Don, I don't remember all the details, but here goes: The mounting was straight-forward, IIRC; we used stainless steel sheetmetal screws on the top side. I...
... If your tanks have the remote readout feature built into the valves, you will lose that feature. OPD valves do not have remote readout capability. Bill...
Good point Kevin, I think we have been down this road before. The tanks on my 87 Avion had the remote readout feature built into the valve. It appears that...
Elo, Very good additional comments - thanks! Re the Xantrex - the main advantages of a good one is that not only is the charger excellent but it includes an...
Our campground does not have sewers by the lakeside where our Avion is, so we do the honey wagon thing. Since the black water tank in the Avion holds 40-gal, I...
Hardware store. Propane place wanted $5 more for same item. ... Be a better sports nut! Let your teams follow you with Yahoo Mobile. Try it now. [Non-text...
Bummer. My new '87 Avion has a leak near the door. We found a small puddle on the rug at the door. When I checked outside, I noticed that the top door hinge is...
I purchased the new tanks through the local Suburban Propane dealer, Chuck. I posted all the information about the tank (part number, etc) on the forum a...
It may not be the same problem but when my 87 had the same type of a leak I found the bead of sealer on the water diverter over the door was gone after a new...
Thanks for tip, Paul, but the gap is clear to see, and the top hinge definitely is canted to the left, maybe 10-degree more than the bottom hinge which looks...
There are many items on this site for "other" aircraft riveted aluminum trailers, but there are many things here that are useful to Avion owners. Check out ...
Bob, I am not sure about the design of your holding tank drain but here is info relating to mine. On my two Avions the main drain is on a double-elbow that ...
Rol, I have a Xantrex Truecharge 40+ 3 bank 12VDC charger that I use to maintain AGM batteries in an oversized battery box on the front of my trailer. When ...
Robert, We travel to southern Colorado to camp along the Conejos River where there is the same situation concerning septic systems and fresh water. The ...
Speaking of converters, I have a nice (and working) Progressive Dynamics PD708 converter I'd love to sell. Can you give it a new home? It's the original...
Thanks for tip. The pipe might swivel. The one on my motorhome swivels. Never forced Avion pipe to see if it would swivel. That would make things easier if it...
Good news! Cayo is shipping two hinges. They are sold as a pair, for $90, or also sold individually. I ordered the pair. Hope that solves the problem. Checked...
Bob, as I recall the ZipDee awning comes very close to the "drip gutter" above the door as it is being rolled up into the stored position. If you decide to...
Bill, thanks for the caution about the awning. Since it's freezing here now, I cannot unroll the awning to check the clearance at the door, but what you warn...
Could somebody explain where the loud hummm comes from in the converter? We notice the hummm noise is loudest at night. Then, only the courtesy lights along...
Rol & Bill, you're probably right. Yesterday, I peeked into the converter compartment. Amidst the grimy dust coating on absolutely everything, I noticed that...
Rol, where did you buy your reconditioned Xantrex? Was it a factory recon or a service person's recon? PPL sells a Magnetek unit for much less money, which...
Hi Bob. If the fan blades were clean as you say, then the fan was likely not working. If my memory serves me correctly, the converter fan uses a thermostat...
