First time newbie with electric hookup

Hi all, sadly I've had to cancel my first trip away in camper but have encouraged my wife to carry on and take our boys. We have booked a site with electric hookup but I just wanted to know what we can or can't use without draining battery. I'm assuming just the power from the domestic plug sockets ...

Dash board/lower console removal

Hi, can anyone tell me how to remove the lowermost part of the dash board. The piece directly in front of the gearstick and below the heater sliders. Do I just pull it? I can't see any retaining screws anywhere.

Thanks for your help.

Re: Replacement pilot fuel/air jet

Thanks for reply CJH, I was beginning to think my post wasn't visible. I'll look into your suggestions. Is it beyond the realms of possibility that someone on here might have an old carb/part carb that may have the bits I need? I'd be very happy to pay.

Thanks again for reply

Hi, I have an 1989 Autosleeper hightop. I'm trying to find replacement trim for where the lower lip of the hightop meets the body just above the tailgate. Is this a specific item or does anyone have suggestions of alternatives?

Thanks

Re: New member hello

Hi aj, I tried to replace with a new rotor arm, but the one I bought looked correct on the top but was wrong size hole on bottom, too small. It looks quite a complicated rotor arm, is it worth replacing with an "ordinary" one?
