    The newbies here have a backup 12v water pump. We too can select 120v or 12v on the panel in the john. Our third system is Mary sending me outside to fill a bucket. So far we haven’t found a fourth system because we, like Tom, are spending a lot of time dumbstruck by the sheer number of amazing sytems on this marvel of technology.

    Also, Jeff’s support has been great. He instantly solved our shorter-than-a-Liberty power cord issue. He said, ‘go buy and extention’. We did. How cool is that?

    Only the filters with the large center wing nut use that number. There was also a filter used that had six hex bolts around the outer lip to secure it, that is a different number.

    My 2014 Ford 4×4 Super Crew is an easy tow. Just hook up ,put foot on the brake move shift from park to neutral and switch 4 wheel drive knob about 5 times and transfer case goes into neutral mode. Easy peasy. Fixing to buy another smaller, less weight , suv as we don’t use it that much (Ford PU) and don’t need to be towing 5 or 6 thousand pounds around.

    I have always seen a 20-30 degree hotter temp on my inside drive tires vs the outer drive tires, I have assumed it is due to less air flow on the inside tire, and it hugs the disc brake closer. Am I right in thinking this?

    I have also been reluctant to try Pressure Pro, because of a bad experience with an off brand TPM which caused a flat because of a leaking sensor. So after that, I’ve just stuck with my temp gun, and a tire bumper at the rest stops.

    Dick, see my other post………….

    Seriously, at the very best any auxiliary heat solution to cold outside temps is like takng aspirin Motrin, Aleve, or Advil for a brain tumor. All might relieve the pain, but the real solution is to deal with the tumor. In this case the brain tumor is outside storage.

    Marathon is not alone in having house items on the Prevost side. I have some house items on the Prevost manifolds as well. With respect to the floor slide I can fully understand why that likely should be on the Prevost side.

    One of our members was hurt as a result of entering his coach, and by accident hit the floor slide switch in the entry way. The slide came out and knocked him backwards off the coach steps. Moving it to a “key on” manifold on the Prevost side prevents accidental operation unless the coach is running.

    I haven’t had a Jake on a Series 60, but on my 8V92 in the rear electric box there were two posts that when hot would actuate the solenoids for the Jake.

    At idle I would use a jumper from the 12 Volt post to one of the Jake posts. (I think on that coach they were posts #1 and #2) With power to the post I could hear the Jake engage and the engine lug down. I would do that to each of the posts to verify the Jake was working, at least at the engine. If I powered both Jake posts I could stall the engine.

    I suspect but do not know for sure there is a similar set up on Series 60 coaches. By doing the test which only takes a couple of minutes you isolate where to look for the problem, either at the key pad which controls the Jake or at the rear.

    Dan,

    That sounds good we are looking forward to seeing that part of the country. Just didn’t want to get into a gunfight on the way. 😀

    Thank you,

    Chris
