Back in D’Hanis - SKP

Sunday - We arrived back at the SKP Co-op. Shortly after arriving, I reconnected the chassis batteries and checked that they were charging from the house batteries. I discovered the reason the chassis batteries were discharging. I had accidentally turned on the parking lights while getting ready to go. But it started up just fine and I moved it to our storage spot to get ready for a trip to the Freightliner shop in San Antonio. I was going to take it down this morning but the hydraulic fluid was low and I didn’t have anymore. There is a real mess from the leaking hydraulic fluid on the parking pad.

The class C is now parked on our lot and we will continue to live in that until the class A is back from the shop. 

Monday - I used the DeWalt inflator on the class A tires and the front are now filled to 115psi for the first time. My old 12V compressor couldn’t get them above 110psi. I found the correct hydraulic fluid at Napa after checking Advance Auto and O’Reilly. So, all set to go to San Antonio tomorrow morning. 

I picked up a couple of gallons of gas for the Ural. It fired right up and ran fine for at least a couple of laps around the park. I’ll take it on a couple of short trip to ensure that things are running alright. After last summers problems, I completely drained all of the gas before leaving it. I guess that’s the trick.
