I disassembled my converter to drag my stupid cat out from behind it and then I blocked off the hole she used to get there.

By blocking it off you didnt cut off the air flow ? it will overheat if it doesnt have a air flow...

Nah, I taped cardboard over the hole inside the dinette - there's still plenty of flow - at least more than there was when the cat was sitting in there for 4 days. The hole is over a wheel and the exhaust pipe for the toilet (I think) is also run there. They just cut the cabinets out in a huge rectangle to go over the wheel and the exhaust pipe. I neatened that up with the cardboard.

Steel screen made out of expanded metal would be better

Today I did an oil change w/filter. Greased and lubed up the suspension. Even though it was drizzling a bit I felt ambitious!
