93 PT-40 for sale in Nashville
Mike,
I call Prevost and they told me it is Transynd by Castrol. http://www.allisontransmission.com/service/transynd.jsp I also had a level 3 service which replaces all filters. In the Allison 6 speed I think there are 3 internal filters and of course all oil, fuel and air filters. They greased everything that could be grease and it also helped in the braking. I used to get a noise from the front brake that was called normal but it has now quit. I was told when I bought my coach that all the fluid & filters had been changed but I really don't know for sure. But it did not perform like it does now. What I do know is that I'm up to 5.5 to 6 MPG from 4.5 to 4.8 according to the SilverLeaf VMSpc. Call it what you like, it's working for me. Here's something to chew on. I don't know anything about H2O helping your fuel mileage but I know Propane injection works. On a trip last summer I was at a Flying J in S.W. KY. At the RV island. A trucker in a red and white Peterbuilt pulled in behind me. I thought that to strange in itself, so I went back to his truck to tell him I was going to be there a while for fuel and propane. He told me he was after propane. I asked why and he said he had a truck with propane injection and the outfit he drove for was testing the system on 20 or so trucks. I asked if it was working and he professed almost 2.5 MPG up on average. I don't know about that, but I do know the guy whom works on my Ford Powerstroke has a propane fire diesel pick up that with rip and snort, and he's getting better MPG than my truck gets Kurt Horvath 95 PT-42 WLWB In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "mbulriss" <mbulriss@...> wrote: > > --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "bumpersbird" > > > > filters and the high grade transmission fluid really made a > > difference, about a mile per gallon and super smooth shifting. > > > HELLO! 1MPG from tranny fluid change!?
