As I previously posted, we've had problems with our Webasto and our generator. We just left Marathon in Colburg, OR where we had these items fixed.

Webasto - the system worked fine for about 8 - 10 minutes then shut down. I did take "Petervs" up on his generous offer to help us with this... we cleaned the sensor on the Webasto and the system still did not work properly (Peter's house is kind of like an amusement park for grownups... several airplanes, cars, motorcycle and every tool known to mankind, very cool! Thanks again Peter.) It turned out that the problem was that the flex tube exhaust had a leak inside the Webasto container and the heat from the exhaust was causing the heat sensor to shut down the Webasto.

Generator - strange noise was coming from the generator bay area. The problem was that the small blower that blows fresh air into the generator bay had a bad barring and needed to be replaced.

The Marathon plant is very impressive and the people there are great.

Thanks for all your help.
