    Wow! That’s pretty clever. I have to wonder if it took more effort than just fixing the bus would have though…

    Our previous 2000 Marathon H3-45 now owned by Dan and Judy had an original Amana refrigerator, 2015.

    It was replaced with the Sears Kenmore #51789.

    Only modification / change done was removing the bottom rollers.

    I have the original Pro Driver User manual from the 94 along with the reference card. When she went off to salvage I took all of the manuals out. Art if you’re interested, you are more than welcome to it.

    Nice setup Ricky, I’ll be ready for the Hog when you’re done with it. Then I will have purchased more vehicles from you than I have at Parkway Auto, you know, the Junior Samples guy in Bristol.

    Cliff, as I mentioned I saw a substantial number of flat towed pickups with motorcycles or golf carts on them this past winter. All of them were the common short box trucks with a 4 door cab. All had the tailgate down. I did not see any with the long 8 foot bed which is very easily detected.

    I am sure some of our members are towing like that and perhaps they will jump into this conversation.

    Finally got around to pulling the access panel and found the wiper module. Verified the inputs from the stalk work correctly and have ordered the module.

    Will update once I get it installed.

    I can not tell from the wiring diagram, is there feedback from the motor to the module? If the new module does not resolve the issue are there any motor adjustments that can be made or is it new motor time?

    April 5, 2018 at 6:16 am in reply to: XL driver’s side and door windows

    Rubber shapes like the window seals on the sliding XL windows are extrusions and extrusion dies are relatively simple to make and cheap. There are extrusion companies that specialize in short runs and if there is sufficient demand the cost per foot for the material is likely to be affordable.

    If enough XL owners need the seals someone should tally the total number of feet required and reach out to extruders to get some pricing for the tooling and short production run. Use this thread or start another one to measure the interest. If one XL needs the seals it is likely most need the seals or will so it might be a solution.

    As an alternative someone should contact Prevost to see if the part is obsolete and no longer in stock. If that is the case see if Prevost will provide the vendor’s contact information to see if the tooling still exists and if the vendor will do a short production run.

    Hmm, I stayed at Ameristar last year. Coach and Jeep fit fine; didn’t unhook and took their shuttle to the Casino.

    March 27, 2018 at 5:56 pm in reply to: Vantare A/C

    The Vantare has 2 cruise airs, one front and one aft. It has a 2 ton basement unit with 2 compressors, each on a different inverter. The basement unit also has a heat pump on each circuit and will utilize the aqua hot for serious heat if needed. It also has a built in fan booster that will blow your wig off. There is a Coleman drop in unit that easily replaces the basement air if it needs replacement. Price not much more than a cruise air.

    March 26, 2018 at 10:35 pm in reply to: 3-Way Norgren Leaking

    Flyu2there, thanks for the advice and yes they are push the push to fit on fittings. After looking at what I needed to do I decided that I am going to have Jeff Rowe replace both of the 3-Way Norgrens and the fittings and let him deal with the aggravation but since he and his crew know things I do not, he may be able to do it with out said aggravation.

    Since I am full time and no shop, I need to be careful as to what I take apart. The few pneumatic changes that I have made on my own I also ran into the size issues that you described. None of the SAE or Metric wrenches would fit the fittings perfectly leaving me feeling that the size I needed was in between what I had.

    Most, if not all, of the other Norgrens have been replaced so these will hopefully be the last for the next few years before the cycle starts again but I know this is just wishful thinking.

    On cars with a relatively small atmospheric motor at the other end, top speed (189) is reached in 6th gear as not enough torque to push it through the air in7th (dual clutch automatic).

    Thanks Gerald good information. The backup monitor is fine, so my problem is the PC side of things. The Small PC has given me trouble twice and I’m ready to upgrade. It’s an SC 240 at Smallpc.com.

    Obviously there are people on this forum that have their minds in the gutter.

    Do you have to arrive at sunset or is it OK to get there early and watch the sunset?
