Engine won't start or Primus
Hello Mike,
I could not find any switch for electric heater behind the pull down
drawer. There was only an "start Gen" "LP on/off" and water pump switch. Yes,
the switch was "on" to charge both sets of batteries. I am sure the ether tank
is empty I have had this bus for 10 years and never used it. The bus only has
31000 miles on it.
Thanks for your help.
