I have a 1973 26', and going up highway 80 to Truckee my floor caught fire
and burned through. We dumped half a gallon of water on it, and that put it
out.
Looks like last time for the cookie sheet mod. I have headers and the
original two forward mufflers. I don't think a muffler failed, as the coach
didn't get louder. The floor is burned in roughly a football sized and
shaped area over the rear of the muffler.
Right now, I'm parked on the shoulder of I-80 outside of Truckee. I'm
inclined to continue slowly into Truckee while my passenger dribbles water
on the burned spot, get some cookie sheets, and see what can be kludged
together.
How dumb is that? If I can limp a bit further, I'll have a week and help to
get it all taken care of, vs stuck on the side of the road.
Thanks,
Ron
