Tom: I often use my iPhone to access PC Forum. I have to key in my full user name and password. Am I doing something wrong? Need to do something special for the iPhone browser to hold my credentials.

we never saw anything as bad as the picture in the original post. both of ours started chunking out on the first tread rib adjacent to the sidewall. Not wanting ever to deal with tire issues on the road, we just replaced them. this was two different occurences almost 3 yrs apart. Geo.

I’ll second the Toyo M170. I’ve had them on for 4 years, no issues. Price was a little less than the Mich, after the PC discount but they were un-obtainium in my 12R22.5 size. The Toyo were delivered in a couple of days from the warehouse.

John,
The existing bulbs had no numbers on them that i could see. I just went by the base style (mini bayonet ba15s) with a single element.

West coast as in where? LA, Northern CA?
Signature coachworks in Beaumont near LA can do the work. Roger ran the Marathon Service center there before Marathon closed it. He has plenty of Prevost experience.

repair/clean all coils/evap and condenser. In extreme conditions find away to move more air over your condensers(ie box fan) Lift bus higher off ground when parked=give bus a chance to move more air underneath.Run on low after initial cool down=much more efficient(up to 15%). That’s all I got.Your older units are prob built better than the ones today

Tom, there is a race at Daytona this Saturday (7th) which probably ‘splains it.

Joliet, IL to Daytona Beach would take the NASCAR boys down I-75.
BTW, the last lap of the Chicagoland Speedway race was the best I’ve seen in a long while.

Jon, I did not know that your wore a bra.
I guess the gloves are off now.
Speaking seriously now, I’ve seen the front-end bra’s that have the paint design in the bra (doesn’t look bad). After washing the bugs off of the paint/clear-coat, the bra might be easier.

Be aware when you do strip the paint (Craig’s advice is spot on) the stainless beneath it will be a brushed finish and you are going to have to bring that finish to a mirror polish. Easier said than done, especially given the light gauge material used for the skin on the rear doors.

If it helps, I can meet someone on I95 out by Ormond Beach as well.

You’re not R-12 are you Harry?

Doug,
thanks for the info on the additional kit parts.
I have a ’98 engine in a ’99 bus. Already installed the automatic belt tensioner kit and the 50DN large vent kit.
The down pipe on the turbo side (valve cover vent?) is not supported where is passes by the cylinder head but I see it chafing there a bit. I’ll see if the clamp and small bracket can be arranged to support the pipe.
Thanks for the pointer
Gerald

I assume there isn’t a need to install this bracket kit on 60 series engines manufactured after 2001. I guess they somehow incorpofated this fix into the engine structure? If you have a 2002 Prevost, you probably have a 2001 engine.
