Joe, Sureflow 3.2?
-
I have heard nothing bad about the Outlaw! Thor has improved over the last 4 years. F430040. We don't know what make, model, year you currently own or have owned! I've had 18 Class A's in 53 years, both new and used, gas and diesel, good and bad...Look at my signature for current coach, we bought it used this March.

For the price of a used Essex or King Aire, 2016 - 18, you can buy a new Entegra Cornerston 2021. We have a 2012 King Aire 4584, bought used this past March, have spent about $5,400 to get it perfect, rides and handles like a dream. Before buying this, we drove a 2015 Foretravel and a 2012 Newell...My wife owned 5 coaches in 37 years and this is my 18th in 53 years, we got married in May this year and love our KA!

I used Progressive on my Race Boats, not cheap, when a 1,000 HP Merc blew, they paid the 110k replacement and did not raise my rate. Like Bill, in my coach, I self insure for extended repair's! State Farm for coach & everything else...no boat's anymore!

Generator Bay insulation/soundproofing material for my Prevost Coach
manholt replied to Achates_Bostons's topic in Chassis
IMHO. I would go with a soundproof/fireproof material from America! -
We like 90 from Houston to Beaumont, I-10 to Vidor and take 12 to 190, drop down from 190 to I-10 in Baton Rouge, then I-10 to I-12 to I-10 again....unless you wan't New Orleans. You can also take hwy 1 before you cross the river and it will take you to 90E in Raceland, LA. Another is I-49 to hwy 67 to NO. Lot's of options and do/see in LA.

White Eagle, I do believe you hit the nail on the head. After 53 years and now 77. I'm still going to be here! So many memories, so many Chapters that are no more, now we are members of two Chapters and Six State rally for South Central Area!

1979 Apollo 3000 DB Remodel - Any Apollo owners here?
manholt replied to wilmotte's topic in Type A motorhomes
Bill, I think it was Polly. Wilmotte, your right, it was 440...the 1981 had the 454. -
Nope! try Provo, Utah for FMCA Discount, or Denver.
-
Give those idiots, half a chance and we'll all be eating soy! Ugh. 🤢

Don't know about crystal ball, but we are all trying real hard to come up with a possible solution to your problem. 😃

The wonderful world of having a Wrangler for a toad.

1979 Apollo 3000 DB Remodel - Any Apollo owners here?
manholt replied to wilmotte's topic in Type A motorhomes
I had that coach new! If memory serves me, it was a 454. 4 barrel Holly, engine, on a Dodge chassis. Twin 75 gallon fuel, a separate tank for Generator. ours had twin bunk beds, rear bath, fresh water tank was under the driver side bed (bladder type). 19.5 tires....I'll try to remember more specs. Since we had 3 Apollos in 5 years, they run into each other in my mind. Apollo 3300 and the 35' diesel. There is an Apollo club in Calif. & we used to have an Apollo FMCA Chapter in Texas that held rally's with the Renegades Chapter...Herman, you might know some of them, that was members of Renegades back in late 1980's to late 1990's! Apollo, lost when it came out with a DP, the same year as Blue Bird 35' DP and Foretravel. -
I had a folding A frame on a Jeep, hooked on to 2" ball on coach! Nice part, if you need your toad serviced, hook on to back of any vehicle that has a hitch, leave at garage and go about your business!

Yellow or red light? If it's yellow, drop down a gear & keep your RPM up, it will help with the heat build up....also, as suggested clean your radiator and CAC, it's important. As Kay said, could be a bad coolant sensor...normally on outside of your overflow tank by radiator and looks like a spark plug with a two wire clip connector. Un clip and see if sensor goes off on next hill, then reclip. About $35.
-
Take your coach in to fill with propane and ask them. Even if the tank is full.
-
Just out of curiosity...did he pull the dip stick, checked for proper level of oil and re seat it? Bet not. Save 5 cents on a code reader to spend a dollar!
-
Ross, closet comes to mind, so does engine compartment.
-
Charlie, no secret...It was expedient, all has been covered on other posts since 2014....you just need to look for it. 😃
-
Ray. that's fine as long as you have also replaced all the seals and fuel line that does not degrade and become brittle by the BIO! Remember, your engine was not designed for BIO or 15 ppm Sulfur.

Herman, I sent him a PM.

That's so true!

Thanks guy's! I'll see what I can find....I will let you know!
