Issues with 84 35FC

[Scott]

Hey Larry, I see you have got some great response to your question. I
did not know about the wire chafing/corrosion...Thanks Ralph. When we
first got RUBY our 86FC I had a similar issue. The warning buzzer and
light. I could not figure it out...all fluids were ok as you said.
While driving through the Inlet here there is a few bumps in the road
and causes a porpoise type action...the buzzer and light would go off
briefly. I found the coolant level to be just low enough to cause the
warning light and buzzer to come on when sloshing around. One of the
most important lessons I have learned about these birds is the KISS
method...first of all look for the obvious and then check the obvious
again..then go from there.

In my situation I could not find where water was leaking from or
going to...until...and rut ro...blown head gasket. Not to alarm you
but check the coolant level CLOSELY. If you are using coolant find
out why..new CAT heads are spensive..

Can't wait to see the old girl. And of course you too...
