    September 15, 2024 at 11:37 am in reply to: Fuel tank full of black crap.

    Thanks for the info now where would I get the fuel polished? Also I was thinking the same thing you told me this morning that the injector is a separate issue. Funny thing is when all this began on my last trip I changed the filters and the bus ran fine for 200 miles and all of a sudden loss of power and check engine light came on I pulled off the road drained the separator. Then we had no more issues fro another 150 miles. But I changed the filters again a couple hundred more miles and I was still having injector code and miss issues. I had to have an injector replaced last year I should have done them all, but hindsight is 20/20. I have changed the filters again I haven’t driven it yet but if the injector code comes right back with in a few miles I would guess need to replace it. They did not run the rack when they replaced the last injector which goes again everything I know about engines. I do know I will be more vigilant about keeping the tank full and treated when I put it in the bus barn. I appreciate any more help or advise you have I been doing this a long time but never had the algae issue. Things can get very confusing when more than one thing happens at a time. Thanks again

    The mirror head was redesigned to be compatible with the footprint of the screw drive motor, so they are not backwards compatible.. There is a stronger motor (ELE080) that is compatible with the 6000 series heads from about 2001-present. Essentially, your options are to either replace the head entirely to get the screw drive motor, or contact us for an RMA to have your mirror rebuilt and request the ELE080 motor to be used. If you have further questions, feel free to contact David at 574-266-1455 ext. 103.

    Liam, I am considering moving my condenser for my CC OTR air that is for the galley and bedroom. Would you mind sending a picture of your condensers’ new location? I am going through the replacement of all of my old R12 hoses and I don’t like the location of the condenser behind and above the front axle. Also considering moving to a roof mounted condenser.

    I can use all the help I can get. Last night I had a salad for dinner and for the first time this season it was 100% food I was forced to grow, or starve.

    Truk shows no sign of relenting. I’m forced to sell assets to pay bills. I’m telling you guys while he boasts about only having to spend money on wipers for his GOAT, I am spending whatever time I am not weeding, hoeing, planting, or picking trying to fix all the stuff on my coach. I’m broke, wore out, starving, and I don’t even get a commission when I do his battery selling for him.

    Older inverters as installed may not have been set up for by-pass power which if the inverter fails allows generator or shore power to reach the devices that need power. All inverters pass through power when working, usually sensing the presence of power, closing a relay to send power to the electric panel. Some of the power coming into the inverter would also then be used to make the inverter charge the house batteries.

    My 2nd Liberty did not have pass through provision so I wired a by=pass circuit into the system so if power could not pass through the inverter, I could flip a switch and send generator or shore power to devices that need 120 V AC, specifically things important like the refrigerator.

    If that is the only load, far less than .4 GPH which is the consumption with 2 A/C units, the HW tank, and various small loads such as lights and phantom loads.

    No, unless the turn is so tight I need every centimeter, and that might happen once every ten years.

    Interesting. I never had a fuel splash in 8 years (1999 coach, 1998 chassis).

    The nice part is that any way you want to do it works just fine. Up/Down, Left/Right in any Front/Rear, all will work. Try different options and find what works for you. You cannot hurt anything by running the different buttons through their paces. I do try to keep the front end as low as possible for the convenience of getting in and out of the coach but I also carry a separate step to help get in and out if that’s not possible.
