On one condition....
You and your obvious electronic brain, helps us poor M/H owners understand how the "Low Coolant" and "Low washer Fluid" sensor work....
Nearly all of us have the dash lights on and i for one dont get how to diagnose and fix them!

I bet they operate on conductivity. If they are on even when you know they are full, I'm betting one of the two wires are broken or disconnected. Start at the radiator or fluid tank end of the wires.

I missed getting him to try it on the dent in the front curb side of my Caravel. Maybe I can convince him to bring it to Bash II and help me out.
Tom, I'll bring it but you need to bring a big compressor with you.
It's like the one shown in the posting # 19

I had a very similar dent in my 73, I used a professional , I think dent wizard, made the contact through a local auto dealer. He uses the service when one of the vehicles on his lot has a dent, often the repair is done without breaking the paint....Anyway, the guy used the suction cups about like a plunger from a toy dart gun....BUT he attached them with a hot glue, then used his puller equipment, quickly pulled the dents, then alcohol to clear the residue from the glue....worked great....about $150....
