Mountain Driving with 1995 42', 42,000 lb. Blue Bird

[Pete Masterson]

It is heated by the Aqua-Hot system. It doesn't get any hotter than
180-200 degrees. An electrical short in the fan (behind the radiator)
is about the only possible source of ignition -- but then the whole
wiring system is equally "dangerous." The '95 Bird doesn't have the
heat tape of concern in the older Birds (unless a previous owner
installed some -- but that's unlikely unless the coach has spent a
lot of time in very cold climate).
