Just a general comment…..Unless you are runnning your engine long enough and hard enough to get it up to its max operating temperature long enough to evaporate the moisture generated by starting a cold engine you are likely better to just let it sit without starting or running it.
Having said that, if you do have the option start it, run it and exercise everything. The tires benefit greatly from the flexing that comes with driving, just run it long enough to get all temps in the operating range long enough to evaporate any moisture that might have accumulated from the running prior to warm up.

I believe the cool down timer is a function of the brain box, controller.

Use Gen turi kit and attach pvc coupling to shower suction cup for stability to top of roof line, attach pvc elbow coupling at top to direct exhaust flow… You can find these suction handles at Bed Bath & Beyond…

I just made a 1300 mile trip, pulling my stacker, with the total weight of 69,000 lbs. I ran 65-70 the whole way, and passed every truck I came to going up hills.
I don’t need any more power……
5 mpg pulling the trailer.

It is a story about door locks with a funny punchline.
Several years ago, my wife and I went to Italy to attend an open air performance of Andrea Bocelli taking place in his hometown of Lajatico in the Tuscany. This takes place once a year in the Teatro Del Silencio, which is set-up in the fields and the middle of nowhere. This concert is attended by close to 10,000 people arriving from all over the world. It is a huge event.
Anyway, back to door locks and how to open them. We had a rental car since we spent a couple of weeks over there, enjoying everything the Tuscany has to offer (especially, lots of wine).
We stopped in a small town to pick-up some items in the grocery store. My wife was ahead of me and while entering the store behind her, I remembered that I had forgotten an item in the car which I needed. I went back to the car and opened the trunk to get at the suitcase. Got the item and closed the trunk. You guessed right. The car keys were in the trunk.
This was in a very small town about a 4 hours drive from Milan. The local language is Italian, of course, and if you do not speak it, it is tough to communicate with locals.
We searched and found the local police department. It happened to be a short walk away from the grocery store.
It was closed and a note was taped to the door. With dictionary in hand, we figured out that the note asked to call a certain phone number for help. As we were dialing the number, it just so happened that the local policeman showed up.
Fortunately, he spoke enough English to undertand our problem. He walked back to the car with us to take a close-up look. He did not see a way to open the car. We went back to his office and he called the car rental company in Milan. Their suggestion was to break a window and have it repaired prior to dropping off the car.
After hanging-up the phone, all of a sudden his face lit-up and the policeman said to us …
Wait a second… I have an old CUSTOMER who can help you! Let me call him.
Well, his “old customer” was Giancarlo, who agreed to come to the car after work. He had the car lock open in less than 5 minutes and nothing was damaged or broken in the process.
A story with a happy ending.
Cheers,
Ronald

“just bought coach, as is, where is, hasn’t been started in 6 months, coach is like new, 50,000 miles, 23 hrs on gen.”
Coach was not abused, but apparently just not used. Similar to what we just bought. Here is my recommendation:
1. Carefully take the coach to Jeff Rowe.
2. Leave him 25 large (you apparently put batterires in).
3. Return in about 3 to 4 weeks and you’ll be on good shape.
4. Note to owner … check the date codes on the tires and talk to Jeff. If too old either have new tires installed in place or have it trailered to Jeff.
Did you get any maintenance records? I suspect not. Good luck … keep us posted.

Sammy what is wrong with your water

Well we picked our coach up at Jeffs yesterday, and I can say that we are truely pleased with the quality of Jeffs work, and his attention to detail. We had a rather long list of things from service items to new floors and driver side awning, new TV and more. I would highly reccomend Jeff for any of your Prevost work, The work was done correctly and at a fair price, Thanks Jeff!
