Thanks Tom I was not sure if there was two air tanks or they both shared it will have lanyard on soon

[Greg]

Hey Jeff I need to have my two front seats done some time in the near future.

Do you have any idea if it is less costly to recover and ISRIS drivers seat or replace it.

I don’t know what kind of seat the passenger seat is but it is original to my 99 CC.

[Greg]

anything that can run off the inverters should have a red bezel around the breaker.

[Greg]

Had to go to my ‘smart phone’ to read it Jon. That’s a funny one, my mom and dad would appreciate it.

[Greg]

There is no more active topic that frustrates owners than leaks in the air systems, and there is no issue that can drain a wallet faster. So as a result we either accept the fact we will go broke having mechanics repair air leaks, or we drive ourselves crazy chasing them ourselves.

Having said that it is possible to create a “leak free” coach. The term leak free is not quite correct because there will always be some loss of air pressure over time, but in the context of going days before the gauges move or the coach leans we can call a coach leak free. The effort to get to that point is exhausting because the big leaks are the easiest to isolate. Where it gets very time consuming is chasing the small ones that by themselves aren’t significant, but collectively will result in unacceptable pressure loss.

And there is no silver bullet. It would be great if we could add a magic leak repair gas or liquid to the pneumatic systems but there is no such stop-leak product.

So the solution is simple. Take your leaky coach to your favorite converter, and trade it in on a new coach with a warranty. Or you can turn it over to a repair station for leak repairs. The cost will be the same.

Hi Bryan ,mine was done by American Coach and there aint nothing wrong with MCI coaches. Im not sure why more converters used them .I did charter work for a bit after I retired and got to drive different coaches and I loved both Prevost and MCI’s. Hated Van hools though. Did you say you were going to be in Utah this summer or that general area? We are heading out that way next month. gonna wander around and see all the places we only saw in the movies and tv. I didnt get much info with my coach so probably wont be much help to you and with all these neat freaks on here I aint showing anyone my engine compartment ! LOL The only thing that matters to me is that the boys at Jacksonville like the coach. (course that might be because I leave there broke ) lol

[Greg]

Thanks

I think I’ll make my own out of an inner tube.

I hope it isn’t to big a PIA getting the steering link loose.

[Greg]

Jon, you said “A third alternative is to replace the thermopane with a thicker window pane of automotive safety glass”

I assumed someone had already done this, but haven’t had anyone that says they have. My question for anyone that has, did you discover the single pane windows more likely to fog up? That would be my only concern. I certainly wouldn’t be concerned on the reduced R value of a single pain as every other piece of glass in the coach is single pain.

[Greg]

To be clear, I did install 30/36 on the drive and 30/30 on the tag. Seems to be working well so far.

[Greg]

It’s easy at the scales, just split the tag and drive on the platform and have the steer on it’s own. 3 weights and you’re done.

You guys in Oregon are lucky, if the scale is closed, just roll up there and you’ll see your weights on the digital screen. I did it just to compare to the Cat Scales for fun.

[Greg]

I dont know if this will help you but we have a guy here at the great outdoors resort in titusville that does it. His name is Roy hathaway and the phone number is 321-506-0434

[Greg]

We always stay at the city park in Hoover. It is beside the Baseball stadium once named Regions Stadium, I think it may have been renamed. It is basically a large parking lot with full hook up 50 amp service. Easy in and out and not to far from Stamford in a nice residential area.

[Greg]

On your vintage Liberty air pressure from the aux pump is used to keep the generator air bags inflated, open and close pocket doors, bed lift, operate dump valves, air up the driver’s seat, etc.

Bonz:

Suggestion for a quiet place to hang out for a few days is Hollywood Casino Campground in Bay St. Louis, Ms. Another unique place to try is the Silver Slipper Casino near Waveland Ms – this one is right on the water. You will even get some spray if the wind is blowing – no trees – just you and the sea. Not much for kids other than the miles of beautiful beaches.

Also would recommend to anyone needing an overnight stop on I-75 between Atlanta and the Florida Line to try exit 82 Carrolls Country Sausage General Store and Campground, Ashburn, Ga… Its fairly new, clean easy in and out, 50 amp service, gravel drives, no cable super nice folks and you get a free great country breakfast for the 30 bucks a night camping fee. The breakfast would cost you 10 bucks a head at Cracker Barrell. Plus the general store has 42 feet of fresh meat counter. All kinds of great looking beef and pork to choose from. Everything we bought has been excellent. Need more sausage!!!
