TSD (Gina) told me the new cards can be used in Oregon and Indiana, two states that previously were a problem.

Running high ratios of ethanol in gasoline can cause problems with older cars and truck with O-rings, gaskets, and some fuel lines. If the vehicle doesn’t have EFI it has more problems. EFI apparently senses the amount of ethanol in the fuel and adjust things (probably amount of fuel, injection timing, and maybe spark timing). Ethanol has less BTUs per gallon than gasoline so the mileage drops.
Does bio-diesel have any of these traits? Does bio-diesel have the same amount of BTU’s per gallon as petroleum based #2?

I did contact them and I’ll be put on the email list.
Chris – The price shown on the TSD app is cash price and it matched my Loves app price.

Jeff: I’m 90 miles away just north of Milwaukee. I’m going to Rockford for an 8pm meeting next Thursday. If it helps, I can leave here in the morning and stop by and try to help you for a while. I have a Liberty, but maybe I can help you get things sorted out.
Buddy: What are you doing in Louisiana in all this heat? Why don’t you take a road trip to Janesville and teach Jeff everything he needs to know about his coach.

This was my experience with driving with Level Lo Not in the drive or road position.
I was in a city far from home and help. I had the drivers side all the way down for level purposes while parked. When I started the bus, the driver’s side did not come up. I raised it manually, but when I put the Level Lo in drive position, it went down immediately.
The air seemed to be coming from the ride height valve immediately in front of the drive axle tire.
After pictures, video and conversation with Jeff, he advised me to find a place to look at it, raise the bus manually and drive carefully to the shop, checking periodically for too much lowering all around the bus, as advised above.
I found a charter company that had a garage and agreed to look at it. It was less than 10 miles so my wife drove behind me to let me know if something looked wonky that I might not notice.
I pulled in over a pit and explained everything to a mechanic. We were both in the pit when I had my wife put the Level Lo in drive position and the bus stayed level with no dropping and no air escaping.
We tried it over and over and over and it would not duplicate. That ride height valve and several other valves have been replaced since then, but it never did the same thing again.
There were several times in the future when the driver’s side would have to be raised manually, but when the Level Lo was placed in drive, it held and adjust properly.
Keep in mind while you are driving with Level Lo in any position besides the drive/road position, you will need to check your ride height on both sides and front every little bit, if I understand correctly.

Hi robertglines1, I too wrote a long post and lost it so here’s a brief one.
Saturday: Ran engine for 20 minutes on high idle with both pressures reading 120 psi. Bus did not come up. Turned on Level Lo and brought the left, right and front up to drive height.
Sunday: Went back to the park with two mechanics and bus was still at full height as I left it Saturday. Started engine, turned off Level Lo and the drivers side stayed up while the passenger side dropped. The mechanics measured the rear bags and the drivers side as 9-3/4 and the passenger side was 8-1/3. Turned back on the Level Lo and brought the passenger side back up to drive height. We never heard any air leaking but did hear the normal air pop while engine was running.
One last thing is we did check is the ride height valve that Tom posted a picture of. One of the valves was missing the red screwdriver top as shown in the pictures but the mechanics and I agreed to leave it to the experts and not mess with something we were unsure of.
My reason for asking if the bus can be driven in level low is I obviously have to have the system checked. Thank you all for your input…

No, not suitable for the bus.

Jon, Do you still have your tool box slide? If you do, what would you need to part with it. The ’97 Liberty I have purchased is missing the tool box and slide.
Thanks,
Jim
