Pokeys fan issue resolved, keeping the bus, generator rebuild?
Hey gang,
Just thought I'd share a success. After testing the switch, checking for current at the fan, jumpering power to the fan to see if I had a functional hi speed mode, and finally pulling the dash, I found a poor connection at the gang plug connecting the switch harness to the fan harness. Cleaned it and used dielectric grease, works like a champ. Just another note, after much thought, I've decided to keep Pokey, at least for now. I did have her listed for sale, but the darn thing keeps growing on me. I guess it's a sickness we all share. So let the spending begin! Lastly, the 12.5KW genset works well, but smokes a fair amount, mostly at startup. I don't forsee useing it much, but it is a nice option. I have considered rebuilding the Perkins, or replacing the it with a propane fired unit...any words of advice?? Doug Engel, Gunnison, CO, 1981 FC35SB, "Pokey" |
