Up date on the Craig's Coach
Ralph, thanks for posting the information about what was going on with the
coach. We indeed did leave San Antonio today after getting the reservoir neck
repaired. It was actually a pin sized hole which I took a picture of before it
was repaired. I cannot in good concience complain too loudly about them not
finding that because it was covered by a layer of sthyrofoam which was used to
seal it in place. The prior owner did know somthing was wrong because there was
a low coolant code left on the computer from May 30th; he may not have told
buddy gregg and he may have. Short of having the CIA torture him I doubt that I
will ever know.

What did really frost Faye was the dirty coach that they left for her to clean
up. I had her save the rags( filthy) which she cleaned with and I am going to
photo them and send to S&S management along with a letter congratulating some
workers and speaking ill of others.

Keep the faith and remember to water your yard if the flames get close.

Now in Clifton, Tx to see friends.

Happy New Year everyone:

An up date on Wallace and Faye Craig's '95PT42WB. As you know the
transmission went on the trip home from the LSB Rally in Bourne, Tx. Cause
was engine coolant getting into the transmission and ruining the computer
and seals. An Allison Factory rebuilt was ordered and finally installed.

On the way home from the shop in San Antonio, the engine warning lights
came on once again, and Wallace had the Coach towed back to the shop. As it
turned out, this time, the engine code said it was due to low coolant! Well
the coolant was freshly changed at that shop and had been toped off.

Second problem found: As it turned out, the filler neck to the coolant
tank, about 3 inches or so long, had a split in it just below the pressure
cap. So as pressure increased the coolant ran out of the split to who knows
where and of course the engine code signaled the engine stop light.

The neck will be repaired tomorrow and all should be go at that time.

Bottom line on the second problem is this, Those with Coaches, umm I would
say '92/'93 on, might want to check this short neck filler tube that goes
into the top of the reservoir tank for any signs of splits or what ever.



Safe travels,

Ralph and Charolette Fullenwider
