I’m in total agreement with Tom.
The auxiliary air
compressor does not have the benefit of the auto blow down used on the engine
compressor. This means all water must be collected before it gets to the aux
air tank and the Norgren suspension valves. I’m fortunate to have a Jun-air auxiliary
compressor and can level my coach quickly without the engine running. I also
have a Microphor toilet that requires air to flush. Some of the Microphor units
have an electric flush timing valve and some of them use a pneumatic timing
valve. I’m unfortunate to have the fully pneumatic version that is very susceptible
to problems caused by moisture. After taking it apart and cleaning to remove
moisture a few times I added a desiccant drier after the standard air water seperator
Tom displayed. Problem gone, who wants a Prevost with toilet problems. -

Petar,
Keep the inverter as close to the batteries as Jon pointed out. You should also have a fan in the compartment that vents to the outside. Mine is set to come on at 100 degree’s. The inverter has it’s own cooling fan internal, but they generate a lot of heat and need cooling circulation.

or as all Eagle owners do, wish they had one.
You may have inadvertently given me an idea for my next post. Wishing and Hoping.
As I am no longer young enough to sit idly around and dream of sex, it must be replaced with dreams of another nature. A Bus? Is that what you are saying here, a Prevost? That is a strange expression “sit idly around” that has to be wrong, kind of like “Fine and Dandy.”
How you doing? I am doing fine and dandy, I have never been both, I have been fine, but never dandy. Hmmmmm, I will have to do some research on this and that dream thing and then get back to you on it.
Remember the good old days? You would be out trippin down the nation’s highways and there it was … A sign, “Diesel, $1.92 per gallon.”
And you would look over at the wife and say …. “Wow! We better get us some of that!”
Ah, the joys of bus ownership and old age.
Thank you for the fueler card, I promise, no donuts, just fuel.

My 45 doesn’t do it. My previous 45 did it about 90% of the time. The 40 footer didn’t do it but it was only single side fill.
Filling at the auto pumps it doesn’t do it, but it takes forever to fill 230 gallons because my previous 45 had long range fuel (298 gallons capacity)

Congrads on selling your coach as soon as you did. Compared to others still hanging on their coaches. Than again you had a very well maintained coach and in my opinion is a big plus. Rick

Got the radiator back in and trying to fill it. It does go slow so far I still can’t keep it running. Still overheating but I don’t think the coolant is getting circulated because the radiator doesn’t even get warm. Maybe I still need more coolant. I’ll try again tomorrow. Gonig to Louiville Wed. for the Good Sam rally. Might be somebody there can look at it.

I’m headed to the bus shortly with some tools. I don’t think anything is missing, but very possibly could be loose. I needed a starting point, and some direction, and you’ve helped with that! Thanks again

Chuck, this is the street side wiper mount on my coach, if yours looks similar here is what I would do in your situation. Both sides are similar.
First check that all fastening components are in place, that is nuts and bolts.
The main mount and driving force is the large splined shaft coming out the front wall. I think you may have a loose or missing cross bolt holding the arm to the shaft. That would be the first fastener you see on the left.
Second push the wiper arm to what you think is the proper position pushing it onto the shaft towards the wall and install the cross bolt and tighten.
Third check the tightness of the other fasteners.

I know when I converted to 365’s on my bus the handling improved noticeably.

And then there are those who swear you need two wraps of teflon under your thread sealant. The answer appears to be whatever you’re comfortable with. I’ve been using Hector’s method, but wasn’t sure I was doing enough. The Loctite thread sealant is priced about the same per ounce as your wife’s best perfume. Jim, where do you buy the CNH stuff?
