Where can you get a replacement waste water tank. Our 2000 Lady Liberty Classic has its original RDS 59101 tank and it needs to be replaced.

Talked to Hughes and he ran me through a few test to do on old unit, so it may be OK

Rocky & Jack,
As they say in the State Farm commercial, “that’s wonderful news”. Thanks for the info. I have the front valve, so I’ll try it and hope that’s it for now.
Being a full timer makes it difficult to get the bus up and supported enough to go crawling around underneath. If the front valve is OK, I guess Jeff will get an opportunity to fix it next stop. Which will be soon.

Chuck: I’m doubling down on previous posts about the available amps on shore power.
We should all have 240volt 50amp shore power RV plugs. Four prongs. Those are designed to give us TWO 120 volt legs of 50 amps each. Total of 100amps available.
But each leg is limited to 50amps. Your converter should have balanced the loads so that if you have four cruise airs, two are on Leg 1 and two are on Leg 2.
Tom mentioned water heater and aux air compressor. If I know I’m pulling lots of amps and I don’t need the water heater or the aux compressor I’ll turn them off.
One of the best Coach toys I bought was a Progressive Electrical Management System (EMS). Protects against power surge and low voltage. It also provides digital read out of the voltage, amp draw, and Hz on EACH leg. That way you can show campground manager that their breaker is tripping at less than 50 amps. Then the campground can replace the breaker or in some cases just tighten the contact points back to the main service panel.
I’m not an electrician or electrical engineer … but I faithfully read the Prevost Community Forum daily, read and post to Garage Journal Forum when I need help, and have a Liberty Coach. I understand there is a rule of thumb that we shouldn’t use more that 80% of a circuit’s capacity continuously. So try not to draw more than 80% … 40amps per leg of your shore power. I’ll let the educated and enlightened explain why.
If the campground won’t give you the power you need, fire up your generator. There are lots of amps just sitting there … waiting.

Raise the rear of your coach manually. Stand outside next to the driver’s seat and with the engine off, key on and the leveling system switches set to manual, left and right rear raise, change the rear switches to down.
You should hear the air escape from those Norgrens. If you alternate which switch you select, left or right you will hear air escape from one or the other. Remember which is for the left or right rear because if you have to trouble shoot leans in the rear that may be a part of the process.

Sounds like good-natured jesting to me.

Tom, he must have forgotten to scrap the mold off before eating

I have no experience with this but I have heard R134a will leak thru a R12 hose.
When replacing refrigerant hoses use #12 and/or #20 Eaton FC 558 refrigerant line.

God, I know I’m going to regret asking this…
What’s the history of the Liberty Coach “rose petal dispenser” talk around here? I only ask because I have a switch next to my Raritan flush/fill switch that is labeled “Aqua Kem.” It looks like it uses a windshield washer tank and pump to spray Aqua Kem into the holding tank from the top. It’s not working now, but shouldn’t be too tough to get going. Worth fixing?

Art when I replaced mine I went with all red . They are rated for higher heat than the blue & Black. Red rated for temps up to 500 degrees. Blue and Black rated for for heat up to 350 degrees. they are the same size. I double clamped mine.

Very Nice, Tom… Scenic relief. Best wishes in your new build.

They are out for us. They despise everything about us. yesterday 1:15 pm Hwy 138 Pearblossom , Littlerock CA, heading west into Littlerock CA. 4 lanes into 2 , Sedan cuts in late down the middle ,dust , rocks flying . Give em the one finger salute , gone and passing more traffic like an idiot..
Come into Littlerock traffic slows to the light at McDonalds, the sedan is waiting edge of the road, tatooed gang look asshole has a tennis ball rock, fires it though curbside window , shows a pistol, gets in his car , down a side street , gone.
Im towing enclosed , heavy, 75′ long, wife following , 2nd Coach behind that. Quick picture of window, one witness on the street , we get out of there .
Had we stuck around, Called 911 , I’m sure the Sherrif would have responded, manhunt ensuing, shootout soon after, town on fire, 2 shotup and burned Marathon Coaches on the 5:00 LA news.

Had the same thing happen when we first bought our bus. In our case both inverters had failed load sensing devices and they were replace FOC by the manufacturer. They worked only with a substantial load and not with a light load. No issues since replacement.

When I go into storage mode, I flush with the pump out so there isn’t any water in the bowl. It’s worked well for us.
