After you check pressures – if they are good – check your low pressure switch. We have one here that experienced the same issue (was recently charged up, but still shutting down on lo PS intermittently) .. checked pressures when it arrived at our shop, which were good. Ended up being a bad pressure switch.

Sad to say, but I only have a list of shops NOT to use for Cruisair work around LA. Top of my list is Signature Coachworks in Beaumont. Hopefully Robert can fix you up. Please post how it comes out. Good luck!

I think the roof of X models of that vintage was a continuous sheet of aluminum.

What is with the roof fascination? We are not having a contest for the prettiest roof that I know of, but I could be wrong.

FWIW my 97 XL had the roof painted a gold color which was part of the paint scheme. That coach was not as easy to keep cool as my current coach with a white roof. But the XL had single pane windows and I know that was a huge source of heat inside the coach. I am sure a white roof is more energy efficient but my concern with adding a coating or another coat of paint would be long term adhesion. There has been a lot of issues with the clear coat on roof surfaces and adding something on top of a clear coat that might be flaking off doesn’t seem like a good long term solution.

thanks for your input Grizz, I would not do top of slides either.

I don’t know what brand film Marathon used back around 2000, but it wasn’t the product I mentioned, Xpel Ultimate. I thought it was 3M, but don’t know for sure.

This newer product if actually as described, should be the answer. After all, one would believe that technology has developed and improved over the past 16 years to solve the defeciencies the older film contained.

All I can tell you for sure is I have seen it on several vehicles, heard from a user and talked with a Marathon tech who told me it’s much easier to instal. Reading their web site it appears to be removable as easily as vehicle wrap even after many years.

It seems to me that replacing film every five years would be much less expensive and involved than repainting the front end after applying an energy absorbent primer. I wouldn’t sand off my perfectly good Stahr paint job in order to avoid installing new film.

I think the point of not reinstalling film is based on the mess the original film caused, but no one is considering that problem would not occur in the future if the film was regularly and easily replaced. It isn’t necessary to leave a replacement film on until it got so old it yellowed, cracked, and became a problen to remove. Now that we know there is a lifespan of five years, why not install new film with a plan to replace it every five years?

I will have Bill send it to me on Monday

I got away with only 3.4 hours on my front changeover at Prevost, but that was in 2010 and labor time has probably been affected by inflation since then!!

Without wheel covers, my part #’s were as follows:

20434082 wheel nuts 20

611207 studs 20

650439 tires 2

650443 wheels, outside polished 2

probably prevost part #’s Also, bear in mind mine is an XLV.

when I get home I’ll get a picture or two up.

I picture of one of these would be helpful. My aquahot is in a very hard to reach place. I have to remove a panel from rear of first bay, and then it sits between the partial depth right and left second bay. A real B—- to get at. A picture of one of the valves would be very helpful.

My 1999 Country Coach has Dash Air, CC OTR Air, and three Roof Airs. The roof airs are ducted through the entire coach. The CC OTR has two cooling zones, one in the kitchen and one in the bedroom.

I normally only have the Dash Air on. If I want the entire coach cold upon arrival, I will turn on the CC OTR Air shortly before arrival.

Most of my driving is in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and Nevada during the summer when temps can get up to 120 degrees. I have driven and camped in some extreme temps., 112 degree days and 85 degree nights. I did camp in Las Vegas on the asphalt at Circus Circus RV Park the summer it hit 120 degrees +.

Since the Roof Airs are ducted and I can have one, two, or all three on, it is easy to control how cold it is inside the coach. I normally only run two Roof Airs when I stop overnight. Driving in extreme heat, I will use the Dash Air and the CC OTR Air. This keeps the coach very cool.

All my bays are clear, since I have roof airs.
