    I found this article today about the possibility of limiting diesel fuel on the East Coast this summer. Thought the group might be interested.

    While I love the ride of my coach, I find the destination much more interesting than the ride and I always would prefer to be there sooner. Just made a run from Dallas to Tucson with an average speed between 72-74 MPH. In Western TX the speed limit is 80. We did get about 6 MPH which is a bit reduced from the normal but I’m OK with that, too. No big “W” on the front of this coach!

    It’s usually a Mac Regulator like this one mounted in the steering bay. Dick can probably help you.

    It’s a guess but I think it is not shifting, air to cylinder pushing it open but will not close with switch. Also I can push the cover close under pressure, when I release the step cover it will open up. Any ideas?

    I have been building my own lines since the 1980s. I race cars and local speed shops (race car shops) stock all the lines and fittings.

    I got my oil filler from a place in LA That replaced bus engines with new Detroit engines and had a lot of used parts, That was at least 3 years ago and finally put it on. The DN50 breather kit is good to do also with SS hose coming off the top of DN50 and goes to front of engine to new plate for tensioner, The OEM hose for breather is tiny inside new ss hose is way larger inside less chance of plugging up and causing pressure in DN50 to make it leak oil.

    Billy-

    I imagine it is high quality, but out of my price range, as I hope to use it infrequently.

    Mike-

    Now you’re talking, RH & LH, that is more along the lines of what I’m looking for.

    Thanks!

    No. Just clean and degrease it good. The ole original paint was still sticking good but was discolored.

    If you can’t find a filler cap setup at a reasonable price, some folks add oil via the oil reserve tank.

    Don and Art-

    Ok, went to ebay and…I joined the club. Thanks!

    Don did you have to do anything special to get the new paint to stick? I like your color coordinated black and teal paint.
