The one in Chehalis is OK, and no problem with access. A little primitive, but great for golfers–right on the golf course. I’ll look at adding it. I’ll hold on this one until I see about getting out of here. I would hate to mark up that railroad bridge with my coach paint or parts–the Oregonians would not appreciate it! 😉

The Volvo Truck Centers in Phoenix sure works on a lot of Prevost buses there is always a lot full along with Volvo buses mostly from Mexico with the crazy looking tire system

Donald –
Where is this ball valve to drain the water in the water bay air tank? Do you get to it from under the bus? Or is it inside the water bay?
Tom,
The valve that gets relocated… are we talking about the solenoid that operates the air? Or the Vacum Device? On mine the vacum device is at the top now.
Thanks all!

I think Corey pretty much explained the gauges usefulness.
After having the low fuel light come on once (the gauge never showed below 1/8th a tank) and the coach running out 100 miles later (luckily as I pulled up to the Love’s pump, allowing me to learn how to prime the fuel pump after filling it up), I go by miles driven since last fill up and use the gauge kind of as a indicator that I’m either over 1/2 a tank or below 1/2 a tank. When I get to the second part of that equation, I start looking for a place to fill up.

Libby,
The head hunter tank monitoring systems need to be recalibrated from time to time. You can find the instructions on calibration in the owners manual as well as there are some youtube videos that go over it. Kind of a complex set of steps. Needs to make sure the tanks are empty, press the plunger on the sending unit, adjust the low level pot on the back of the monitor panel, fill the tanks, press the plunger on the sending unit again and then set the high level pot on the back of the monitor panel.
But read the manual and watch the video for the specifics. USeally takes a couple times to make sure it’s perfect (or close to it).

Jeff…
Thanks a million… that was just what I needed to know !!
We had a KVH (LM) on an older coach way back and they were rude and horrible to deal with also lots of “unhappy” folks using the marine units.. glad the new ones are better… but hard for me to get past “crappy” service people…. they were so rude.
Things do change and I am glad they do so I am not trashing anyone here.
Have an awesome days my friends and again “thanks Jeff” !!
Cheers, Diane

I have no clue what all this discussion is about. I am sure the methods I use to get on the internet when I am in the bus must be as old as dirt, but I always have internet access. It never has failed me and I am sure the high tech methods being discussed work just dandy, but I don’t understand the reason for all the bandwidth that has been wasted.

Now that would be too easy and if it is I feel stupid. I will check!!

Terry,
I’m guessing it was your holding tank in the plumbing section. Rough week ($8K)!!! With the cost of the computer and new tank!! I guess you’re wondering what else goes at 14 years!!! Thanks for sharing your experience with us it gives something to look forward to!!

Easiest way is to turn the pump off. Add water to the tank and leave a faucet open. When it is at a level above the pump the water will flow through the pump pushing the air ahead of it.
Once you are sure the water is well above the pump level you can turn on the pump and it should be primed.
If you have any water pressure on the water system, it will not prime.

I had to make some door adjustments too. There is a panel above the door that has 2 screws holding it in place. Once off you can see the bolts that hold the door to the track. One of mine was loose and I can imagine it getting loose enough the door might drag on the floor. You could look at that. This assumes your 2000 is done like our 2003. …. good luck! -
Jon,
You’re all heart. You know nurses don’t use ladders. But if you want, I can line up some more Country Coaches and Royals for you to wash.
