Trooper is IN the Toyhauler! Where is everyone? Any NASCAR fans? I will have my Sat. with me. I'm not missing any races unless there is a software update while I am traveling for the STB. I will setup a TV outside under the awning. We can have a tailgate party! Two actually, one for Nationwide Fri. nite & for the Cup race Sat. AND F1 Sunday morning!

All we have to do is load the T4 into the trailer. We put the new tires and top on today, all the maintence was done over the week-end so we are ready! We also have two rear rims (excellent condition) so if anyone is looking for a complete set let me know and we'll bring ours also.

The news said that the temps will be around 100 this week-end.

Now your really making me jealous. I'll tell you what, I will sit in my Trooper in the garage downstairs set up the TV and watch it live on Sky TV, have a couple of beers and think of you guys. Problem is the temperate is down to about 8 to 15 degrees now and it will be half that in the garage. Make sure you take and post a group photo of the Troopers and you guys lined up in front of your machines so the rest of us can see what we are missing.

Cinda, did you get an upgrade winch? Sounds like your all ready to Rock & Roll anyway, have a bloody good time and take care.

Cheers Mike. B) B)

No winch yet, George is comparing them and I think he's close to making a decision.We were just talking about it last week-end. Also I now know more about Trooper maintence than I ever wanted to know about. I helped being the gopher as George worked on her. Nobody ever told me that gear oil really stinks :o . I even helped change the stock bolts for hex bolts on the skid plates.

The T4 had all the guys at the tire store plus a delivery guy ohing and ahhing over her. Its like traveling with a model or moviestar :P its amazing how many people have never seen a Trooper before. It is fun showing her off and answering questions :D

I'll be sure and take lots of pictures this week-end of everyone.

Just in case!

Don't let the Weather/Temp forecast scare you away. We can ride Arizona Style. Ride early & late and eat,visit & hydrate in between. I am bringing an extra pop-up canopy to attach to my awning so there will be lots of shade. We can also run the gen and setup a couple of fans if there is not a breeze. We do it all the time and you will be surprised how comfortable you will be. Bring lots of water, soda and your favorite drink. Liquids will be important. Also a straw hat to cover your head when you are not in the shade will be VERY HELPFUL! We will have a BALL! We are going to get there earlier, Friday morning. Hopefully I will have everything setup before it hits triple digits. Of course coming from AZ, I am good to 102 degrees.

Have you ever tried one of those mister things that work like a swamp cooler?

Kinarfi,

I have been at locations with them but do not have one myself. I do have a fan that holds water and acts like a mini-swamp cooler. Only works well in a small area. Easier to wet a cloth and put it in between the top of your head and a straw hat or a damp cloth on the neck. Works pretty well. OR, Someone could bring a kiddie pool and we could take turns, LOL!

Cinda

Hope you ALL leave enough room for me to pull thu or back in if ya get there before me. I am huge and need a little room to turn around or make a turn.

Thanks

I forgot to tell you that you can't get on I-15 from US95, they have you exiting at Las Vegas Blvd to Lake Mead Drive.

Otherwise you can exit Boulder Hiway, go right to Lamb (just past Boulder Station) left on Lamb (to the right Lamb is Desert Inn) and run Lamb to I-15. I'll pm you my cell number.

Can we get off on 146/215 to 15 and come up from South of the airport? Also morning rush hour traffic, anything we should know?

Yes you can take the 215 to the 15, the traffic gets bad on the 215 in the morning rush then you'll have the same rush hour traffic on I-15. George varies between Lamb and Las Vegas Blvd when we're going to Utah. I can't wait for them to finish the on ramp. I just talked to George and he said you could also exit Charleston , right to Lamb left on Lamb to I-15 we'll listen to the traffic reports Friday morning and you guys can decide on the best route.

Whichever way is the best for a truck. We are nearly the same size as a semi-truck & trailer, 53' long. I left you a PM & a voice-mail.

      We just bought a used 2017 American Landmaster TW450. No hour meter that I can find, so not sure exactly how much it has been used. 
      The first 2 days we had it, the starter was a little sketchy, but it started after 2-3 tries. Sometimes when turning the key, we would hear a loud metal "clink" sound. Like the starter made contact, but didn't have enough power to turn. 
      THIS MORNING... Turning the key, we hear a single click sound. That's it. Even with a new battery, the starter is still doing the same thing. Both batteries (old and new) were reading 12.8 volts on volt meter. So I'm wondering what else could be going on? Any ideas on what to look for would be greatly appreciated...
      Thank you!

      I've seen a number of requests for the location of all the grease points on these machines, and there is no definitive list in the manual. This covers the UT400, but other Coleman/Hisun models should be similar.
      Tools:
      First to grease your machine you need a grease gun and some NLGI#2 grease. You will find it helpful to buy a needle attachment as pictured here, due to poor clearance on some of the U-joints. The rest of the zerks use the standard attachment.
       
      Technique:
      Wipe any dirt/grease off the zerk before greasing to prevent pushing gunk inside and causing excess wear.
      Push the grease gun on the zerk at a straight angle and give it a few pumps. You will hear an oozing noise or sea grease coming out from the outside of the greased area when you've put enough grease in, a few pumps should be plenty.
      If it's just oozing around the zerk you either don't have a good seat with the gun, or the zerk may be rusted and the check ball frozen. Try seating it again and regrease.
      Wipe up any excess grease when youre done to prevent making a mess.
      Greasepoints:



      Rear A-Arms are greasable with the wheels on from the rear, I took the picture with the wheel off for easier visibility

       
      That's it. All other Hisuns should be substantially similar.

      2020 Massimo Buck 400 - Won't start. Can hear the starter spinning, but motor never turns. Relay? Starter? Worked fine one day and not the next. Thanks for any help you can provide.

      2016, Hisun 500 turns over great but Spark plug is firing when I turn the ignition key on. I’ve got good fuel pressure to the injector. Pulled plug out and it is wet with. gasoline. Air filter is clean. Turns over great just does not even try to pop or start.. I’ve checked off uses and they are good when I turn the key on I’m getting power to the injector.. I’m not hearing the injector pulsing, but may just be my hearing.. With the spark plug getting wet with gas I feel like the injector is pulsing and spraying. Any suggestions would be great. I don’t know the hours on the unit offhand, but it has 600 miles on it. Thank you for your comments and advanced.
