    At least you have a slide! My Wrico was installed with the same orientation as yours and in a fixed location. You could not even reach the oil fill cap! Had the same issue with the generator side but happened to be in OR. Wrico would not remove or install the genset so I had a local service center use a folk lift to pull it out, put it in my van and transported it to Wrico. They had a fork lift to remove it from the van (but not from my coach), did the repairs and returned it to the van. Worked great for years after that.

    John & ThreeGreens: Thanks for the input:

    I will clean the roller etc on the back of the throttle pedal. I watched a marine diesel engine runaway once, it was scary and costly.

    Sounds like this is just a glitch, can’t imagine having one of these beast running away while heading down the road

    Don,

    Great information as always. Next time I see Jon, no wait I mean Tom

    Jon has nothing to do with dues payments, I will ask him to waive your dues.

    Thanks so much.

    On my bus there are 2 SC-3 check vaves that I know of. One each on the primary and secondary brake tanks.

    Here’s another pdf file link specifically about the service of the SC-3 check valves: LINK
    Your results may vary

    I would have to come up to speed on this by seeing if it shows codes, but I am guessing you are shutting down because the engine thinks there is one of the issues that shut it down. If you can get it running, keep hitting the stop engine over ride every 15 or 20 seconds and see if it keeps running. Obviously if no oil pressure shows don’t do that.

    Mine is 100-280. Since red line is 220 I doubt it makes any difference what the range is as long as it exceeds 220.

    Great stories Davy and Chad.

    If my wife would ever retire we might get to put some real miles on our Prevost too.

    Good grief Dick, if you mention PC on the other Fakebook site you will have demon darts coming your way, there is only one single expert source of all things known to man. If you cross that line, you may have to move to Mexico. Can’t imagine Kathy going for that deal.

    October 25, 2020 at 6:40 pm in reply to: air ride system problems

    Thanks Jon for all your help!

    The only thing that I can see that the aux air runs in the coach is the floor slide and air toilet. With the coach off and aux Compressor on and as comes up to psi I can hear something in the rear Suspension moving. I’m a bit confused as why the power floor slide works with the bus running so it’s getting air from the engine driven compressor system when the aux compressor it not on. Man I’ve got a lot to learn! Lol

    Looks like a double axle boat trailer ?

    I’ll give it 10 miles of towing before the whole thing comes apart.

    Art, its 1″, or #16, or 25mm, or whatever you want to call it, they’re all the same. It carries atf in it and I doubt its under pressure. Its looks like the feed line for the pump. 4 ft looks like it will do but you may want to buy 5 ft just to be sure. Use your AITA card and get a discount at NAPA or TruckPro, or PrevostParts.

    Mine has double clamps at each end and is dry as a bone. I run Valvoline Maxlife multiple vehicle synthetic ATF in my ps system.
