    Rocky,

    I’m going by memory so double check. Your vintage Liberty should have 3 5 port valves, 2 in the rear and one in the area of solenoid valve stack. You should have 5 3 port valves, 3 in the rear and two up front that are pneumatically operated, and 2 more three port valves on the steer compartment floor that are solenoid operated. All are related to the suspension and the level low system. There may be others depending on how your coach is equipped for other functions.

    The two solenoid operated three port valves are installed by Liberty as part of their modifications to the Level low system and that might be different from other conversions.

    Right out of the Operator Manual for the Jacobs Engine Brake…

    The Jacobs Engine Brake depends on the free ow of engine oil for
    operation, so be sure to let the engine reach a minimum operating
    temperature of 40°C/104°F before switching on the engine brake.
    Normally, the engine brake is then left in the “On” position whenever
    you are driving. The exception is when roads are slippery due to poor
    weather conditions. Refer to Pg. 10 for specific operating instructions.

    The Jacobs Engine Brake is a vehicle-slowing device, not a vehicle-
    stopping device. It is not a substitute for the service braking system.
    The vehicle’s service brakes must be used to bring the vehicle to a
    complete stop. However, by appropriately using the engine brake for
    your slowing needs, the service brakes will remain cool and ready to
    provide their maximum stopping power when needed.

    No doubt my 12v pump was added by one of the previous owners. So glad they did!

    Just like the back-up cadet heater I added to the water bay in case the first one quits …

    I always carry the tools to swap these because I’ll never need them in the garage, and have done my own. We’ll just need a spray bottle of slippery water or equivalent. I’m in.

    Terri Roberts is Paul Davis’ X wife and has taken over since Paul has retired. This coach is nice- great cabinets- not a Prevost and- personal opinion- commode out in open- a deal breaker for us

    July 16, 2017 at 8:40 am in reply to: Exercising your Bus

    My intended use of the Coach is as a point A to Point B with occasional stops to and from AZ. We have homes in Wisconsin and Arizona. I am tired of airplanes and want to seasonally travel between both by Coach taking 10 days to two weeks. Maybe head to Florida for January to visit friends. So, that being said, It will sit in Wisconsin in a warehouse where the temp is 75 in the summer, I can put a dehumidifier in the Coach and in the warehouse to control the humidity, (Wisconsin can be Hummid), I can install 50 amp service and have it connected. I am very willing to take the Coach out and “excercise” the Rig anytime in the summer, take it out for two three day run to Northern Wisconsin to visit golfing buddies. In Arizona the winter will be dry and stored in outdoor covered storage. I do not know if the storage facilities have 50 amp service and need to check that out before the actually purchase. But after unloading the food at our house and the tons of the wife’s luggage, I will empty the gray and black tanks, top off the water and fuel and drive it to storage. Again I can take the Coach out and drive to Las Vegas and Palm Springs for weekend “excercising”. Beyond all this what suggestion would give to me for things to think about before purchase. Thanks Michael

    Ronald, I can completely relate. We sold our sail boat in the year you bought yours. Sailed across Lake Michigan about 20 times, 75 miles, 15 hours. Congrats on doing what you like, the memories will sustain you.

    What is it doing? What flash code do you get when it doesnt do what it is supposed to do? If you go outside while the other is trying to run it and watch in the 3rd bay drivers side, the control boxs for the slides are there and what lights are on….

    Brett, for heat there is a 3M window film that very significantly cuts the heat but adds no tint. It is even legal for windshields. I plan to install on the toll and door windows. If it’s as good as it sounds I will also add to at least the top portion of the windshield. Glad to hear you haven’t stopped looking completely.
