Ernie The name next to the door says Fred and Louise Staiger. Not sure who they
are, or where they are from though. I bought this from a dealer in NH. It was on
consignment. I'm either the third or fourth owner I believe. The FMCA# on the
plate is 22658. So far from what I've checked, everything seems to be there,
except for the side awning. It dosen't have the instant hot water dispenser but
I may put one in. It has the ice maker, with looks to be an inverter over the
passengers head. I may update my alternator (get rid of that 160 amp Motorola),
and go with a Delco 320 amp, maybe change the inverterto 3500 watts, so I can
run the ice maker, the hot water dispenser and one roof a/c going down the road
without having to run the generator. It has 4 electric fans on the engine
radiator. I thought this was stock untill I got it home, climbed on the roof,
opened the rear storage pod and found a hub with an electric clutch a fan blade
with the shaft missing and a shroud. I
figured it out. It has the swing radiator, new belts/ hoses .along with a spare
set of belts, and a complete set of spare filters for both the main engine and
th generator ( Kohler 12.5- 600 hrs) I also got the screen house that you add
water too. Had an exhust leak, I installed a new muffler, and although the
tailpipe was recent I had a 5" chrome set of stacks off an old Peterbuilt, that
was in good shape, so I threw one on for my tailpipe.This is my first motorhome,
and although I have always thought about buying one I thought about this deal
for about 20 minutes and snagged it. Today I started buffing it out, the paint's
comming back like it's new. Ok I don't want to flood the forum too much, but I'm
like a kid in a candy store, right now. Oh one more thing. I got what I'll say
the main blue print ( it's one sheet covered in hard see through plastic), but I
also got about 40 other detailed blueprints about 3'x5' in size, Did these come
with the coach, or were these
copied later?

Hello group. My name is Jimmy Harvie, a new member. I purchased an 82 FC35, last
week. It's in great shape, been sitting for a few years. I have a few minor
problems to address, (sucking some air in the fuel, small leak under the air
filter. It may be the governor seals, in the pump, I haven't taken off the air
filter housing yet) Michelin xza's all around, 1124.5. They look brand new, no
dry rot, but the production date on the rears are 390, so I'm going to replace
those. I have repaired a lot of other things already, thanks to all of your help
on this forum. I have 30 years of diesel expierience, (UPS Journeyman/ Penske
tech1.Plenty of expierience on Detroit 71/92/series60-DDECV Mack Factory
training. I hope I can help anyone that needs it I'm planning on heading to Fla
in a few weeks,(I'm just west of Boston), looking forward to meeting bird owners
thanks.( Curt, not sure if this will help, but those 92 series had a restricted
fitting, somewhere on the return side of the
system,That fitting influences pump pressure. Just a thought, did you use all of
the old fittings, when you replaced the pump?, I haven't seen too many problems
with those 2 stroke pumps, most of the time, they're good for the life of the
engine,
