Top 20 Coleman 10' X 10' Sundome Tent 9160K101 - Page 8 Questions & Answers

It's likely that it was left away with fuel in it. This causes gel to form which blocks the fuel getting through. The blockage could be anywhere between the tank and the mantles. The order I would check in are;

1. The feed tube assembly
   
2. The generator
   
3. The Burner
   

It's possible to get these parts from coleman or coleman suppliers. To find which needs replacing you'd need access to another similar lantern and try replacing one at a time. Otherwise it's going to be trial and error or just replace all.

There's a manual which shows the assembly and the order number for parts at http://www.coleman.com/coleman/images/pdf/220f_228F.pdf
I hope this is of some help.

Go to a tailor

Clean the hole in the tip of the generator, or turn the wire handle 360 deg. 2 or three times, and try to light the lantern with the wire handle in the down position.I hope I was some help? Cheers David [email protected]

Hello Joe,

the serial # (VIN #) is usually located on the tongue of the trailer. It can either be a tag, or it may be stamped. The axle may also have a tag that has the VIN # as well. Sometimes the tray that holds the propane cylinders covers this up.

On the popup box itself, there may be a small name plate located on the roadside front corner as well.

Do you have the evanston 6 tent?

I've had a couple of coleman tents in the past and I have a pretty good grasp of how they all set up. Start with the main tent material and collapsible poles. Put the pole segments together to create several long straight poles. Start with the first pole and slide it through a fabric sheath and all of the sheats lining up with it. The ends of pole will clip in to the bottom of the tent on either end and with some models there are clips that clip onto the pole.
Do this same procedure with each of the poles until your tent is standing up on its own (note that some poles will be used for the rain fly).
Now add the rain fly, if you suspect there is a chance of having rain. The rain fly is a large piece of tent material that drapes over the entire tent and is bungeed down to the corners of the tent. There may or may not (depending on the tent model) be poles that push the rain fly out over the doorways, these poles are tensioned between the rain fly and the tent itself.
Be sure to stake your tent down and put some gear in it to weigh it down in the case of inclement weather.
Enjoy!

Hi,

I hope this manual and parts file helps you.

Best wishes.

Those stretchy tent poles are at walmart, real cheap, Buy a couple and you will have a spare. If you want to fix the old one, I would try a couple solvents to loosen the glue, then remove the tip. Goo gone, or one of those to start, then move up to the mineral spirits, then the laquer thinner, If that doesn't do it, Nothing this side of fire will do it. Laq thinner is the strongest solvent available. Be carefull.

I have the same issue. It looks as though the rivets broke off. I have yet to reattach the slide mechanism. Normally the slide mechanism is stopped by a peice of emtal about 1./2 the way down the slide. Either new rivets or some flush head screws might sole your issue.

Chuck, did you find the manual? If not I have one with my spa maybe I could copy it for you.

If you didn't oil it it might do that. or you should check the position at witch you are holding the plunger. the instructions say that the plunger turns left and right but mine doesn't do that DON'T FORGET TO COVER THE HOLE IN THE PLUNGER THOUGH IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO FIGURE THAT OUT THE FIRST TIME

you need to unscrew the top nut that holds the steel top piece on and then it will all come apart

There is water in your fuel. Drain the tank and flush it out with denatured alcohol. Refill with fresh fuel.

You can do this. Another possibility is to have an upholsterer look at it, or even a sailmaker, if you have one close.
Best regards, --W/D--

Most water filters have different ways but you should be able to find a diagram on the net .

Hi,

I had the same problem on my 1997 Coleman Fleetwood Bayside. I took out the spring pin from the crank shaft using a finishing nail and a hammer. I then put a 9/16th" socket inside to hold the nut in place while I used a pipe wrench on the outside of the crank shaft to turn it about 1/4-turn clockwise. Voila! Now it works.

This camper uses the Coleman lift system which uses a threaded rod that connects to a tracked distribution block to which all four cables are connected and then routed by pulleys to all four corners of the popup.First raise the popup to it;s full height by using automotive jacks and poles once extended securely clamp the poles to the telescoping up rights This IS SUPER IMPORTANT FOR YOUR SAFETY. Next get under the camper find the broken cable unbolt it's routing pulley(s) pass the broken ends out the pulley(s).Next unbolt the end from the distribution block. followed but unbolting the cable from in side the telescoping column;carefully note the routing in side the column. Buy or make up an exact length cable of aircraft grade stainless steel twisted wire cable of the same gauge. Reverse steps to re install,take lowering strain on crank make sure crank handle is captured by anti free wheeling device on camper un clamp poles remove, lower and raise top by crank to ensure smooth working. You're finished.

Here's what worked for me

Press and hold the following three buttons in sequence: PROGRAM - MODE - SET DOWN. Once all three are being held down, the lock symbol will disappear; and the control functions are unlocked. =0 )

If you are talking about the old type that runs on Coleman fuel, start by putting some oil in the hole beside the pump knob to make sure that the gasket is lubricated. Fill with fuel and pump it up, keeping your thumb over the hole in the end of the pump knob. When you have pumped up enough pressure, turn on and light the main burner, then secondary burner if necessary.
