Slide gaps
#18

Got the coach back today and for now most all seems to be OK. Took a little longer than first planned. Berned had to work on some other coaches that were there before me that took longer to repair than he thought. But it was in a bay and plugged into 50 amps as it would be if at home so not worry about that end of. However glad to get it back.
On mine he changed the large coolant and hoses. I had him change out the four black handle cut offs to the Aqua Hot and front heater and replace the hoses from the engine to the cut offs but not the hoses from the cut off to the AH and heater. If they ever leak I will just turn them off. Of course put all new coolant in system and filter.
I also had a hydraulic leak so drained the fluid and replace replace filter and four new hoses with new fluid.
He retorqued the head bolts, adj. the valves and Jake brakes. This seemed to stop the coolant leak. Will know more about that after I drive it awhile.
I am still having jake brake problem however. Going over tomorrow and let him test drive it. He said it is not under the valve cover, because he made sure of that. Could be the switch or something else. This has been going on for some times and I have been just gearing it down on steep hill, which works about as well. So we will see if we can find that problem. Sometimes small problems are harder to find than major ones.
