Hopefully, you weren't just bringing the
coffee to your lips when the bag let go!

It was not my air bag. It was a local GMC owners.
I would guess age. I'm pretty sure it is an original bag .
Coach has set most of the last two years while he
has been working on other things. I will try to
get date code on bag tomorrow.

this is why I never sit between the wheels in a lawn chair, while camped,
and I put the GMC on blocks when I get home.

there are several famous GMCers that run on schrader valves
and stick their heads in there to adjust the level. Not a good idea

you should remote the schrader, or use the new remote controls (if you don't
want to fix the air system

http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/showphoto.php?photo=33969&title=smc2&cat=5471

these wireless controls, are used by GaryB, BobB, and JohnS. I hope to show
the links to these systems before someone gets hurt.

ask these guys if they wanted their head in there (this year) when their
bags blew up
EmeryS, Richard, etc

I just got a second email regarding the air bag. He states he
bought two new bags when he bought the coach. Apparently
he had not installed them yet. At least he has back ups.
