Hey...

Its been a while since I posted....

After rebuilding the fuel system, coated tanks, new lines, rebuilt senders, etc.

New exhaust manifolds and gaskets

New re-cord radiator, hoses and belts

New electric and mechanical fuel pump

New water pump

Rebuilt calipers and pads

rebuilt CV Joints

Plus a few things Ive forgotten....

I FINALLY GOT TO DRIVE MY COACH FOR THE FIRST TIME!! Yea, it was only about 5 miles but after all the money and time invested, it feels like a breakthough!!

Special thanks to Mike Nooney and Kat, for all their hard work!! I would be nowhere without them!!


Happy that mechanically we are finished for the most part...

Thanks,

Steve

Up next I tackle the ONAN....

Oil Change

New control board

New air filter

Rebuilt carb and electric choke

I had an Onan expert verify that it runs and produces power after bypassing the control board... So we should be good on this part too...

I hope...

The "Onan Expert" is doing this part...
