    I apologize for being so slowin replying. Thanks for the help. I opened the suction side and topped it up with 134A. We just got back from an FMCA rally in Essex Junction VT , Quebec, Bar Harbor &York Maine and while the weather was pretty mild we did have a couple of 80+ degree days. On those days I had the coach temp down to 68 and my wife yelling to “warm it up”. it would be nice ifit didn’t leak but an occasional bottle of 134A is a lot cheaper and less angst than trying to find all of the leaks.

    Al,

    Thanks for sharing. It is amazing to see these big buses taking shape.

    We saw three Liberty’s under construction when went up to the factory to pick out the interior of our unit. I’m glad they know what they are doing as the coaches that we saw were in the wiring stage. When you see these coaches in that stage of building, you can see the amount of labor that is involved.

    I don’t think Liberty removes the slides but I could be wrong.

    Did you put a deposit on a new one?

    Towels and washcloth go in the dryer every day after showers. Keeps the humidity down and the towels fluffy. Love my 240 volt dryer – outside vented.

    For temporary service, connect the terminals together to in effect bypass the relay as was suggested above.

    The only downside to doing that is the master switch will be on 100% of the time, but you will not have any failures as you hve been having. Prevost should be able to overnight the relay to you.

    The next company I buy or own will make a lot of money, but will have no customers or employees, both of whom are the biggest drawbacks to company ownership.

    The service manager @ Mira Loma IS the problem. By and large, most of the techs are good but they do tend to oversell front end work on IFS coaches (see Jon’s post).

    thanks Jeff, and Jon, I’ve backed off this plan. The route looked precarious which is why I asked about the routing taken by others. I’ll plan to get it up on the ramps a couple of times a year.

    Thanks for the discussion a few weeks ago I still need to get up to see you with the coach.

    I haven’t seen an American in a while however don’t they have individual switches inside the coach for the gen? It isn’t going through the invertors for gen start is it?
