Being University of Texas Longhorn fans of over 50 years…..
Our car license plates on the SUV “toad” and on our personal Jaguar is “HORNS” … the license on the motor coach is “HORNS RV”….
The coach is therefore naturally nick-named “BEVO’ in honor of the U T mascot…
Sick isn’t it?

With apologies to Rick DeSilva it appears the Subaru is the geezer car of choice around here. In New England it is mandatory everyone has to own at least one Subaru, especially if the person is a tree hugger.
It is that way around here too. All the idiots seem to drive them. -
The Prevost OTR system used R12 prior to switching to a 135A refrigerant.
The only R22 used on our coaches to my knowledge has been in Cruiseairs which are installed by the converter.

If you remove the plug without back seating the compressor valves you will loose all of the freon. Stop and think about it, if you loose freon there is oil there at the leak.

My 82 started life as a seated coach and has three height control valves – no norgens. I do not have any buttons on the dash to change the level which matches the Seated coach air schematic. Not sure if that helps but it’s a data point.
I also have a PDF file of the “motorhome” air schematic rev 3_82. (which shows the solinoid valves very near each of the three height control valves). Do you also have the 4 airbag front suspension?
If you don’t have the PDF send me an e-mail and I’ll send it to you. I got it off the Prevost site years ago but can’t find it anymore.
I can’t figure out how to attach a PDF otherwise I’d post it.

It seems like that would be a good place to add to the PC map. Maybe one of you guys who have stayed there could do so.

Davy, it could very well be the singnal air line going from the air compressor to the governor . Peter………

I usually use a California Air air compressor. Amazon has the compressor only or a package for around 200 bucks.

John Wade,
What dates are you planning to be in the Pittsburgh area? We will also be in that area mid-June and might be able to meet up with you somewhere.
Thanks

Tim, I think the answer is going to be specific to a particular coach because of variations in how a coach is equipped, the accuracy of assembly, and the variation in the device that initiates the signal.
I have only seen the low fuel warning light once and it was on a previous coach that had a 298 gallon tank(s). I had around 60 gallons still in the tank when it lit.
In my current coach I have had the fuel gauge needle sitting squarely on top of the red empty mark and the light hasn’t come on. I have a 208 gallon tank and the most I have added so far is 160 gallons. If I assume 90% capacity that means I still had about 30 gallons on board.
I have long ago stopped looking at the fuel gauge but have used historic fuel consumption averages to predict when I need to refuel. FWIW I have never run the generator out of fuel so I can’t say how that is set either.

Ernie, if Gil Johnson’s CC is still available at Panterra, take a close look…a well sorted and impeccably maintained bus. Geo.

a visual inspection showed the front AC is draining normally out the drain hose located in front & below the passenger seat area. I need to get on the roof and check the pan. I will run some compressed air up the drain hose to remove any debris in the hose on Saturday. Right now I’m working from 6 am to 8 at night, came home and had condensation leakage again today. The temps are getting warmer and Pam is not happy about my little catch pan right in the middle of the walking area. Unhappy wife makes a unhappy life.
This weekend I plan on putting some food coloring into the evaporator coil drain pan to verify if it is the pan leaking or if it is truely condensation. If it is the pan I really am unsure if I can fix it with jbweld on the cracks. I really am hoping it’s the seal. Fingers and toes crossed.

Your coolant sensor is on the rear of the engine, driver’s side. Before considering a replacement however it would be worthwhile checking all connections and grounds associated with the sensor.
I carry a spare just in case. I also carry an oil pressure sensor and an oil temperature sensor .
