    Did you replace with the exact same part number ? There are so many part numbers available …..it’s a problem.

    The whole ship is regulated at 120 LB with Prevost air topping off at 130 lbs max. Prevost AUX air is normal 120 LB max.

    This pressure switch can be adjusted both min and max pump on/off. I dialed mine down to 80lbs. to run less.

    Overall this pressure switch is very reliable and rarely do we read about malfunction.

    Chris, we stayed at Leaf Verde 4 times over the years. It’s a great park that is very well run. That park has an interesting story.

    Back in the mid 80’s, the original owner couldn’t find decent parks for his Prevost coach, so, he opened his own. (this info comes from his grandson Scott Swanson).

    Scott was a movie producer in Los Angeles (retired) and decided to come back home to run the RV park for his parents who inherited it from his grandfather. It is a very successful park full with snowbirds visiting in the winter months.

    Leaf Verde was sold about a year ago and Scott purchased a RV park in Gila Bend, AZ, south of Buckeye. He bought a KOA franchise and has made the park one of the ‘cream-of-the-crop’ facilities winning KOA awards. We have stayed at the new park twice and he is doing a wonderful job.

    Careful boys. We have no 3 phase electrical systems on our Liberty coaches.

    The electric grill is a 240 volt grill and between either hot wire (black) and the neutral (white) is 120 volts. Between the two black wires is 240 volts. In the electric panel the grill will have two breakers and each breaker controls one leg of the 120 volt wires.

    IIRC, the bus is a 95 Vogue. It was originally owned by a popular kid’s TV host from California.

    That looks just like the one on my Marathon? Why not call parts in Oregon and ask where they buy them?

    We don’t need whiskey to create fertilizer. It is obvious from some of the posts on here there is a never ending supply of fertilizer available.

    May 21, 2018 at 6:52 pm in reply to: Modified sine wave to pure sine wave converter?

    I’m not certain any particular brand is adversely affected by modified sine wave inverters as much as the issue might be in the components used.

    It is my understanding some refrigerators have compressors that experience premature failure and others have control circuits similarly affected.

    One thing however is probably a certainty….if you ask an appliance salesperson if it OK to use the appliance he is selling on modified sine wave inverters the answer is always going to be yes.

    May 20, 2018 at 8:56 pm in reply to: Generator will not start from inside.

    I’m pleased to report back that I have my generator system working again as designed. I traced the problem to the gencon generator auto start circuit board. Although these boards are no longer made, I was able to find a brand new one on ebay. I put it in today and everything is back to normal.

    Generator programed to start when it senses ground.

    Suggest looking inside control box on side of generator. Normal shake and vibration on running generator would lend me to spend time in the generator bay wiring connections.

    The best shrimp po-boy I’ve had was in a corner dinner in the outskirts of new Iberia. Ive been hooked since and have been on a mission to find better ever since.

    I’ve been a big James Lee Burke reader and had to visit the town he bases in his dave robucheaux books in (of course that includes Missoula and the bitter root area, but you can’t get a shrimp po-boy up there if your life depended on it).

    Used some kind of stop leak purchased at auto supply store 4 years ago and so far it is working great. Give it a try.

    Yes it is true……..

    Just got 4 new tires on Saturday.

    No XZA2 anymore.

    Dealer had plenty of new stock / 2018 date code.

    Michelin X-line Energy Z coach tires 315/80R22.5

    Used the Prevost Community Michelin Tire Advantage Program.

    Paid Michelin , $830.52 per tire……(still have bump on head where I fainted)

    Big jump in price over the prior XZA2 prices. Had no choice as steer tires were late 2013 date code

    Got tires from St Lucie Tire and Battery in Fort Pierce, Fl

    Was treated great, They have the equipment to do the job correctly.

    Replaced both steer and tags. Took them about 2.5 hours to do the job.

    $240 for dismount/mount/new stems/valves. Running centramatics so not balanced.

    PS….With Michelin Advantage program you have to submit your credit card info at least a day in advance to Michelin at 1-888-532-6435. You credit card will be verified and is good for 30 days only.
