I am trying to get my coach together for a month long trip up to the
Canadian Rockies, Calgary, and Edmonton with a couple of other GMCs. I do
have contingency plans if I am unable to take mine, but I would prefer to
travel with the Gremlins I know. We are scheduled to leave Saturday.
While taking a short test drive, I am noticing that the steering has a
noticable notchinesss to it when turning. This is something new. Does
anyone in the GMC brain trust have suggestions as where to start looking
for the problem.?
Yet another problem appears to be carb related - almost like linkage is
getting stuck causing the engine to "race" - at times in almost any gear
setting. Was so bad once in park, put it in netural where it settled down
and turned it off. This is a Patterson rebuilt carb that my "friend" felt
needed an electric choke, so removed and installed one. Not sure if it is
always working correctly, or if like mentioned before, linkage is sticking
from setting for 8 months.

Any helpful suggestions will be more than welcome.
