That is very generous of you Geo. I was able to get the last spot at Holiday Cove for that weekend (prob not the last spot but the last one I would fit). Looks like an easy 30 min drive to where I am staying.
Thanks again!

Dan, the only reason the car sat in the garage was because there was a prohibition about running with those tires when it was below 40 degrees. I ran into a lot of cold weather along the way so that prohibition is now out the window. As to rain, this and my last Z06 are daily drivers. I don’t care if it gets wet. I ran 10 over the speed limit on the interstates regardless of whether the road was wet or dry and did not feel uncomfortable, and after the last track sessions I have a lot of confidence in it for daily driving.
It has a setting for “wet” which I did not use but at Pahrump with it set to “wet” you would have to work pretty hard to spin it. I could not no matter how much I had the wheel turned or how hard I was on the gas. My pickup truck is significantly more dangerous in the wet.
My only driving restriction now is I am not driving it on roads that have salt or brine on them.

The track work was done mostly in the wet and it was also great because we could push the car and ourselves to the limits also but at significantly slower speeds than in the dry conditions, not to be racer car drivers, but to know how much faster the car is capable of than I am.
When I was there it was as hot and dry as it could be (August). By the afternoon the track was so hot the Z06 was having some slight breathing issues. It’s a fun track and the instructors were top notch.

Could it be a normally open sensor i.e. it takes a short or low impedance to trip it?

I just completed moving my insurance to Miller insurance in Oregon. Because of not having an appraisal completed in order to get an agreed value policy, Miller insured under actual cash value (ACV not a good deal) until the appraisal was completed by automotive appraisal services Mark Koch. Don’t let the business name fool you Mark knows Prevost conversions. then when the appraisal was completed Miller converted my policy to an agreed value policy
The appraisal process was long and time consuming to copy documents all maintenance, and repairs, upgrades, refurbishes, add on’s, 32 pictures. I keep two logs on on all dollars spent on the bus. one a detail of what when and where, and one a recap of same. just copied the recap and a copy of a refurbish we had done. Mark was very easy to work with, did request additional information, But I know that I received an accurate and fair appraisal. and it was above my estimate
Cheers

That is correct….5 port 3 way, 3 port 2 way….terminology not correct …my bad….but you all know what I meant.
I took the 3 way upfront out to prepare the fittings transplant to the new one when it arrives and now I can’t use the bags to lift the bags and crib the bus on blocks to look for the rear valves….

Most of the time 110 volt components burn up are connections, Either loose wire nuts or spade connectors get loose. I always tape my wire nuts and if the spade doesn’t slide on tight pinch it so it slides on tight. I did mobile RV service for 8 years and I’m also an Aqua Hot dealer and that’s to most common for that.

Just talked to our friend. He was able to get a roadside service out the cut the brake houosing as Al suggested, and with the wheel free to turn, he is good to go to Las Vegas. He will post an update here when he has the coach fixed.
Thanks for the good responses!

Antifreeze has a distinct smell, do you think that’s what your smelling even though you said oil? Try to determine if the smell is coming from just one of your heat exchangers, maybe something has ended up laying on or near the heat exchanger causing the smell.
