David,

It sounds like your AC has a low freon charge. Suggest you contact a local
heating and cooling outfit to check it out for you
The original toilet in your coach would have been a Thetford Aqua Magic
Starlite low profile. Access to its innards are as follows:
Shut off and disconnect the water fittings on the back. Be sure to use double
wrenches on the copper fittings or you WILL twist the line. (been there, done
that).
Behind the pedals you will find a floor flange bolt with a 1/2" nut. Diagonally
across the toilet under that little round peep hole in the top of the toilet
(under the seat) you will be able to see the second bolt. A wrench works best
on the front nut and usually a wrench used while sighting through the hole
works on the rear nut.
Repair kits for the water valve and some individual parts are still available
for the Starlite series. And a few dealers still have some new old Starlites in
stock.
