I don’t think the isolator performs the function of controlling the voltage regulator. It is there to do as it’s name implies, isolate one set of batteries from the other and to allow the alternator to charge both batteries. There is a sensor wire from the alternator that controls the voltage...

You do run the risk of cutting the belt if you lay it on a pulley and force another belt to go over it. I know some do it that way and I even did it once but it did put a gouge in my new belt. It's not that difficult to loosen the other belt and retention it. Emery Stora > > Actually the ac...

Even with your 23’ it will likely take 40’ so its probably going to be cheaper to buy a 50’ piece. You can even get it through Amazon. Get a quality hose. Emery > > Thanks, Emery. I'll probably have time to pull them all to measure before > buying, but mail order may be significantly cheaper...

Ken On my 26’ I seem to recall using a 50 foot length of 5/8 and a shorter piece of 3/4” to replace all my hoses including the ones back to the water heater. I think perhaps Bruce Hart would know the exact amount. Emery Stora > > Anyone remember off-hand how much heater hose I need to...

Ken Shaffer I have had success in the past getting parts quickly from PPL Motorhomes in Houston for many different motor home appliances. https://www.pplmotorhomes.com https://www.pplmotorhomes.com/ Call them. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick, CO > > Sorry, Ken, not a clue. > > Ken H. >...

The reason the 455 has two pieces is because part of it passes very close to the exhaust manifold and will burn through. GM’d two part line consisted of a steel line and a flexible line from that to the radiator oil cooler. A few years back the steel portion of mine rusted through and I replaced...

You could call or email Frank Jenkins and ask him how he came up with the logo. https://sites.google.com/site/gmcfrank/ Emery Stora > > I'm referring to the fiberglass one with the rounded GMC logo that I've never seen anywhere else. > -- > Christo Darsch > 1977 Eleganza II, "The Komet" >...

It depends what cover you are talking about. There was an original fabric (vinyl?) cover which was original equipment but there have been aftermarket covers such as the fiberglas ones made by Frank Jenkins. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick, CO > > I don't know about the logo, but the...

I have already spoken to Bob about this a couple of times.. First of all one should check to see if the shaft above the bottom gear has a thrust washer (usually with two tangs) and a spacer washer above the gear. Dick Paterson says NOT to use a thrust washer (with tangs) and NOT to use any...

HOWEVER it is both a filter and a drier. You can get the moisture out but not any solids or particles. You could also flush the old oil from your engine oil filter and use it over but would you? The savings you might gain with not replacing the air conditioner filter/drier would quickly...

Ken Generally if you are ordering parts you should specify a 1075 Olds Tornado with a 455 engine. Most 76 will also work but there were some very minor changes from 75 to 76. 78 pickups didn’t have a 455 engine. Emery Stora > > And Jim Bounds has always been a great source of information...

No, most do not contain oils and dye. You have to pay more for those than for straight refrigerant. If you have a leak the oil will usually also leak out. If you suspect that you have excess oil they you should drain the condenser and evaporator and compressor and flush out those components...

Richard The zirc fittings come in many sizes of thread size. Pipe thread, metric thread, sae thread and others. I am sure that you can easily drill and tap the hole for a slightly larger thread size to solve your problem. Emery Stora > >> Jp, I know how it is constructed and how it is...

I was at Osoyoos Canada in 05. The planked salmon was fantastic! I did a few installs of Duracool while there. I agree with your statements except numbers 2 and 3. There are times when you do need to evacuate the system. If is has been open to the atmosphere so as to allow air and moisture...

Remove the light fixture from the right hand side and you can then reach inside and around to the fittings. I assumed that you have already checked the connections to the faucet. If for any reason you cannot reach the connections then you would have to remove part of the bed, the water tank and...

I had a Westberg tac prior to getting my Mac dash and never had any problems with it. I then installed it into Walter Drew’s GMC. Walter lived in Santa Fe. I don’t remember who bought his GMC but it’s someone on this net. Last summer I burned up 3 coils. I found that there was an intermittent...

At this point I must advise you NOT to use Safeco. I had to be towed in recently and the tow bill was $2225. Safeco’s policy says I would be towed to the nearest qualified facility. The $300 they offered me for towing would cover approx. 40 miles. There wasn’t even a city within 40 miles. I am...

I only have the motorhome with Safeco. It was booked through the Explorer insurance Agency. I’ll have to look up the number and post it unless you find a previous post from me. Let me know. Emery Stora > > Hello all - > > I know this has been brought up before, but it seems like things...
