Question on SP's

[Fred Hulse]

Hi Dave
We had a 91 SP36 for a while and appreciated every inch of it.
The SP36 has a 300 HP Caterpiller 3208 engine with a ZF 5 spd trans with
retarder.
The only critical thing about the SP36 was the rear radiator fins would get
clogged with oil mist from the crankcase breather and then dust and dirt
would cling to the sludge causing the reality of overheating.
This is overcome by cleaning the fins on the radiator and extending the
breather tube out past the radiator.
Regarding the power of the 3208 Cat,I always felt it was plenty adequate in
nearly all situations after the ZF trans was reprogrammed to downshift
sooner and give the driver earlier manual shifting ability.
I am a advocate of mid door so it was ideal for our use.
Beautiful coach!
