My family mechanic friend changed some broken vacuum lines that lead to the throttle body today. He did some testing on the fuel system and found it to be running at 40psi, which is on the higher side of tolerance as per it's specifications. And next week, he'll do some work on the catalytic converter and possibly change the muffler. We took the motorhome on a shakedown cruise today consisting of some hills and freeways. This time, I had him drive and it passes his tests.
Once he gets the exhaust finished, it's on to rebuilding the interior. It's not easy airing up the tires. The motorhome has E series tires designed to take a higher inflation, in this case, it's 85psi. Normally, cars don't go above 47psi and the motorhome's weight is an issue. But I believe that my local Speedway's air pump can do it? While I'm out there, I have to get both marine batteries replaced. One reason is that the auxiliary generator runs off of the house/ chassis/ auxiliary batteries. Right now, those batteries are 5 years old and they won't hold a charge.
Adventurer's Project for the year 2018 is in full effect.
