Chinook RV

Please point me to thread for 1995 Chinook Concourse covers. Thanks

After looking at locations for a 2nd house battery, I was curious if anyone had placed one under the kitchen sink in the cabinet. 1996 Chinook Concourse with rear entry door.

My 1995 Chinook, 460 runs and starts great as long you start it everyday. If I let it sit for over a day, the engine cranks and tries to start but usually takes several tries before starting, 15-20 seconds of cranking. Thinking it's a fuel supply problem.
