    New Spark plug and shes running good. I Think when i washed the tank maybe there was a little water and it did a number on the spark plug. Its running good though but still think im gonna get the APU just to make it easier...

    Anyone know how much fuel a dynasy APU uses an hour? • Fuel Savings – Enables savings of up to $800/month or $9,600/year by reducing idle fuel consumption by one gallon per hour.
    Thats what it says online does that mean its using 1 Gallon an hour?

    I know that if/when I buy a new rig the first trip will be to the nearest TK dealer for a TriPac. Or if I get a Western Star I'll get the ParkSmart system on it from the factory. Did plenty for me when I used them with Maverick.

    I never had an issue with them. But I would blast the dash and sleeper AC for about 10 minutes before parking for the night and open the hood up for 20-30 minutes after parking on really hot days to let the heat out. The low voltage cutoff alarm usually would go off about half hour before my 10 would be up the next day.

    Though if keep doing this rodeo I might just get a big house rig and live in it lol
