Changing oil filter & fuel filter in a 2012 Tiffen Breeze 32br Maxxforce 7

- I bought this used at Colton RV & was told they did a lube oil filter.
It didn't have many miles maybe 15,000 plus or minus. I have driven to Louisiana from NY and then to Louisiana & Arizona from NY. I decided to do a lube oil filter along with a new fuel filter & fuel water separator. I could tell nobody greased it when I bought it. I greased all the fittings even the steering gearbox under the driver's side.
It had an aftermarket oil filter so I replaced it with a Motorcraft FL-2016 oil filter and a new cap since the aftermarket cap wouldn't fit.
Did you figure out the second filter was a fuel filter yet? There is a kit to replace that with the fuel/water separator below.
Yes, after I removed both filters, I realized one was a fuel filter.
I'd have to watch my video again, but I thought I mentioned that.
Under the coach or underneath the engine is the fuel/water separator filter. I did a video on that.
@@PlasmArtFabricating Curious, do you still have the Breeze? How has it been as far as problems go? There is a lot of conflicting opinions about the Maxxforce 7 engine and the EGR system. BTW, I purchased a 2011 Tiffin Allegro Breeze with 55,000 miles in January 2024. I still haven't drove it. It's just parked in the backyard while I have been performing all of the maintenance on it.
I still own the 2012 Tiffen Breeze 32br. I love it! I believe it wasn't until late 2013 when issues began happening and after Tiffen had to begin installing pollution devices on the engine.
I pull an aluminum 18' trailer with a Fiat 500X on it and two electric bikes. I also have a spare 30-pound propane tank and two large containers with barbeque equipment, etc, in them.
I've driven up I-17 through Flagstaff, not missing a beat. Driven through hills of Tennessee and the Virginia's.
No issues at all.
The only thing that happened was during covid, and I stored it covered, but windows and roof vents opened only to see both captain chairs begin losing the thin leather on them along with the curved sofa. I heard Tiffen knew about this and gave original owners replacements. I contacted them but will only sell replacements.
I'm looking at selling and taking the cost for replacement off the price.
I replaced all exterior lights with LED except headlights.
Mine didn't have front turn signals except on the mirrors. I hooked the running lights up to signal turns. The wire is already there. Maybe who wired them back in the factory just forgot?
You'll love it!
@@PlasmArtFabricating The previous owners of mine, an elderly couple, were good about bringing it in for servicing and taking care of any recalls. They had all of the leather replaced because of the known issue you spoke of. Then they put fabric covers over the new leather for the duration of their ownership. So I basically have untouched leather on the 2 captain seats, dinette area and the love seat across from there. I'm considering ripping out that 2 seater couch and making it a workshop table area that can store tools as well. I won't need that much seating, but will need my tools and a work surface.
It's good to know that it's been good to you. I can't wait to start traveling. Hopefully this summer. In the meantime, I'm just planning on things I'll need and maintaining the coach. I decided I wanted a spare tire. Little did I know at the time it was going to be a thousand dollar project including the rim, tire, torque multiplier for cracking those lug nuts, 12 ton jack with a special saddle, 6 ton jack stands and base plates for uneven ground, and all of the hitch mounting gear for the spare. I didn't want to have to rely on roadside assistance. The tires that are on it are in great condition, but they are 2016's. I have purchased a TPMS and wheel covers and have sprayed them with the 303 UV protectant and will keep a close eye on them until I'm ready to drop $3,000 - $4,000 on six new tires.
It's been fun to work on and everything seems to operate as it should. I was told by the previous owners that it just needed some TLC and that was exactly the case.
Another tip. You might want a TSD fuel card. It can save you 40-50 cents off gallon diesel.
Flying J and one other doesn't except it only Good Sam card. Good Sam might save you 10 cents off a gallon.
I think it's a good deal.
