I was reading this and couldn't help but laugh. You post a problem that could have literally hundreds of root causes and 3 gurus post within 12 hours and fix it. Stunning the community this has become in just under 9 years!

Hey Folks,

Quick update.  Just wanted to let ya'll know that I drove the coach home today.  Only issue I had was one of the engine bay doors came opened on me due to a latch issue I need to work on, but that's what the 200MPH tape is for.  Smile   It really drove and ran great.  I've got some brake pull to work on but other than that it was nice and smooth.  Just wanted to say thanks again to everyone that has helped me to get this thing ready to ride in the last few weeks.  I couldn't have done it without you guys. 

Now that it's home I'm looking forward to getting it all fixed up and doing lots of projects on it.

Thanks All!

Two rules to older coaches, if it moves and it shouldn't, duct tape and baling wire. If it doesn't move and it should, WD40. All kidding aside, congratulations on your new coach! Happy to hear you've got it home and looking forward to hear, and possibly see photos, of your progress.

Great news Wil !
Driver's side engine compartment door by chance ? 
Brakes are straightforward ,  be safe jacking and cribbing .
Glad you have your coach home without incident. 
Have fun!
