I'll be stopping by the PostOffice Monday.
BTW I may of found a nice trailer 36' gooseneck.
Will have to see if it fits into the budget.
28' lower deck. Needs some skin repair. But that is easy.

I think it time to stop the

Slowe I see you said oil in the degas bottle is that correct?
You may want to do a Dawn dish soap cleaning first.

You will want to look that one up and verify the steps first.
Oil in the coolant is not good. It usually comes from a ruptured
oil cooler. When you pull the oil filter do you see what looks like
a chocolate milkshake?

If that is the case then you need to do the oil cooler first before
the flushing or you will have a really bad mess. If you can get your
hands on a usable used oil cooler that you can install for the flush
and the week or so after then remove it and stick the new cooler in.

The reason for leaving a cooler in after the flush is to catch all the grit
that the chemical flush will knock loose and plug the oil cooler up
very fast. But the people that are really stuck are the ones that have a
ruptured oil cooler and no spare one to toss in for the short time to
filter all the grit out.

One of the FTE members came up with something to back flush the
oil cooler to help clear the grit out of the cooler before it turned into
hard rock like substance. I don't recall who it was.
