Wallace,

I am learning our new coach and am not sure which engine you have in
your coach. We have the 8V92 and you mentioned the engine has a
computer. Which engine do you have? My previous coach (Beaver) was
a CAT and it did have the computer, but for some reason I thought
the 8V92 does not.

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.

along with a letter congratulating some workers and speaking ill of
others.
