Mountain Driving with 1995 42', 42,000 lb. Blue Bird
No... it's not normal. Probably a function of the coach sitting a
long time. On my coach, the windows up front open very easily -- too easily, in fact. The weather stripping has flattened and I need to renew it to stop some rattling while underway. The bedroom window, however is somewhat of a pain. It's quite sticky. My latch doesn't quite latch. So, my plan is to thoroughly clean the tracks and apply some graphite. (WD-40 is a solvent. It leaves a slight residue that attracts dirt, so it's not a good choice for a window.) I'll also add some washers under the latch part in the window frame so the locking part will connect (if the cleaning and graphite doesn't do the trick). Pete Masterson aeonix1@...
