They consist of repairs of both a vehicle and home all wrapped up into one.. And owning two motorhomes quadruples that of owning a single home! This week's project is the refrigerator sprung a leak in my American Eagle. It's an absorption type. That's powered by heat from propane flame or electric. It uses ammonia rather than Freon. The telltale sign of a leak is the obvious smell. That in most cases means trashing the unit. However the Amish are the master's in making replacement components in the USA. Since electricity is banned from their daily use, they can cool using natural gas.. Hence absorption refrigerator rule in their communities...
American Eagle Motorhome..pulling my enclosed car hauler.
Twelve cubic feet four door model with auto ice-maker. Top two doors are freezer, bottom two are refrigerator. Weighs just over 200 pounds. Took off the doors and removed from its' nesting place..
The passenger seat and entry door needs to be removed to get the refrigerator out of the coach. So I stacked the one coach on to the other and have enough room to work around.
I ordered the replacement refrigerant unit and will dive into this project after it arrives... Never a dull moment around OldCarGuy's place...
