    Will,

    I think you are in your bus for the long term. That being the case you might want to piece together via ebay or other sites the components that will enable you to not only read your own codes, but watch all engine operating parameters in real tilme. I have obtained readers such as the one below, with software for my engine, transmission and the ABS brakes, and find it well worth the inverstment. I have less than $1000 in mine with software.

    Steve,

    Chock the wheels and with the engine at idle release the parking brake. That will drop the engine out of high speed idle. I don’t think that cures your problem reading the level, but I am grabbing at straws. If the idle speed was too fast it would not go into gear so I have zero clue why you get that code, but think it is worth a try.

    Chp,

    Carolyn does not like the bugs anymore than you do. She puts two or more cups of vinegar into the tank which slows them down. So, not an absolute kill but effective for us.

    All the best.

    It could also be a slightly stuck pin. Try moving the coach, maybe driving around the block and trying it again. Sometimes there is a slight bind and the slide will not operate. Good luck and let us know

    According to my table “oL 59” does indicate engine speed too high. Should be low idle at 600 rpm; not the 700rpm you get at cold start.

    My suggestion on your bra search is to look at the marine shops. Many of the bras have been made using marine grade materials.

    Using the existing snaps would not be any problem at all after the bra is made.

    Robert,

    You won’t get the 12v from Prevost, you have to go to Liberty or Jeff.

    Glad you posted this, my wife is the lady playing upright bass in that video. Our 1959 GM 4104 (still running strong) didn’t make the cut in the Sarasota promo video, but did show up just left of center in the aerial drone footage shot by another bus nut:

    Unfortunately, the rally organizer announced this would be his last rally, and I’ve not heard that anyone has stepped forward to continue this rally.

    Thanks, I thought there was a rally planned, forgot the date…did not look at the Rally button…exactly my point, seems like during the Fest prices are higher and there is a surcharge per stay $200 / festival charge?

    Sorry, we would not be able to attend the PC rally due to work / school schedule, will arrive at Pelican on Feb 11th…

    Is there a price break for the rally?

    January 23, 2016 at 1:28 pm in reply to: What does the “Entry” button do?

    As far as I can tell – you don’t “save” photos on an iPhone as you would in a desktop sense… you take the picture and it shows up in the camera roll. They are all automatically saved and you have no input as to what the name is or anything.

    I’m now on my laptop writing this message. I do notice now, that when I attempt to upload a photo on iOS with the photo upload script – the photo gets placed into the ../forum/image2/ folder with an incremented name. But if I upload with my laptop, the photo goes into the ../forum/UserPics/ folder – with the name that the file had on the local client file system (what you would want.)

    As far as uploading photos with the same name – since you don’t really get the option to name photos withing iOS and I doubt the photos have the same name withing the filesystem… I would venture to guess that the fileuploader or iOS is not recieving or sending the correct actual filename.

    It also seems like the photo upload script continually overwrites the name “image_12.jpg” when uploaded from the iPhone – at least in this case – causing all the weirdness.

    I went ahead and downloaded Firefox for iOS to try that. Firefox also wants to upload to the ../forum/image2/ folder so I’m fairly sure it would have the same problem (I bailed to try not to mess up the post.) I *believe* that apple doesnt let developers create web browsing code – only apps that use the webkit framework so all iOS web apps will probably work the same.

    So – the probme lies in either the fileupload component coming from iOS – or the uploadeer script. Seems to me…

    Sorry – this post may have been a bit too geeky.

    Side note: we have fam in TN! – Alcoa…. right outside of Knoxville. I didn’t really notice your location Jon until recently!
