Armed with a theory and a general sense of recklessness, I dug further this afternoon. I entirely removed the exterior light fixture (well, look – it’s a marine navigational light!) from the front cap and there they were – two wire ends on the terminals with the number 59 taped on. This confirms that the “porch light” is actually the House Light, and someone changed the wiring sometime in the last 33 years. Some finger contorting led to the severed leads for old “59” being fished from behind the upper cabinet. All is restored, and I guess I love this old girl a little bit more for giving up another secret. Thanks for the help!

Thanks Jon. The coolant was halfway up the window when cold. What is a typical oil pressure reading at low idle?
I’m hoping Jeff can read the codes when I’m there next week.

We were planning to get the Ram with the small diesel, but the cost of diesel fuel negates the increased fuel mileage, and the initial cost of the diesel engine is twice that of the hybrid. Additionally, you have the mess with the DEF. Also, the larger diameter fuel dispenser at the truck islands probably don’t fit the no-cap fuel filler opening.

I believe the glass is still available, but the frame has to be removed from the existing window and attached to the new window via Sika flex, I believe. It has to be perfectly aligned or the window will not close right. I’ve had 2 done, the last one being last year.

Do you have to arrive at sunset or is it OK to get there early and watch the sunset?
When I visited Spring Mountain, it was in August of 2015. I was driving West as the sun was setting and it was dark when I pulled into the entrance. Seeing the multiple colors of the sun setting over the mountains was a breathtaking experience.
Considering I stopped at an In ‘n Out en route to Spring Mountain, it could be considered a perfect day!

We did advise we would arrive early because the information sent to exhibitors indicated we should arrive Monday.

Thanks, Jon. I’ve probably muddied the water a bit by calling the fill tube by the wrong name. It just seemed to me that its primary purpose was to check the level with the dipstick. I had to rebuild the transmission when I bought the coach, so I watch my oil temperature like a hawk and am pretty sensitive to drops of red oil.
My plan is to use a funnel and some tubing to add the oil to the fill tube when it becomes necessary. Is there a better way?

An array of small electric fans. A single or some number of failures doesn’t kill the whole program. Interesting.

He also doesn’t realize you can’t put a 2×10 on top of a 2×6 and then put all that weight on the 2×10 and not expect it to split.
If you’ve owned a Prevost for more than a while and use it, you should have come to know that when you pull into a campground or five-star RV resort with a Prevost (especially a Liberty XLV) turns heads and everyone watches you maneuver and park. Once parked and I know I have everyone’s attention I lower the coach and watch the mouths drop wide open. Just one of the many reasons I enjoy owning the finest motorcoach in the world.

I did not try to identify the years because it might affect all. That is why the service bulletin link will be posted. It might only impact coaches with the CAC alongside of the radiator but until we know the full scope of the problem a couple of minute inspection will verify if a coach is affected.

That’s a fake photo. Anyone that goes to that extent will also have a way to carry the Harley and the golf cart.

I’m at 890 for the Jetpack and 16g with rollover and no contract, so I may call and see if I can change the plan.
Andy, what I meant was at the end of two years they could up your rates at contract expiration.

32 volts would fry the batteries fairly quickly but your fuel gauge isn’t registering. I would check the batts and check all voltages when done with another voltmeter if necessary to confirm.
