I am sad to report that Jane Nottberg, wife of Gus Nottberg of Loveland, CO had died on July 19, 2018. Jane had been battling cancer for a number of years. She and Gus were active members in GMC Mountainaires and in GMCMI. Gus was a former board member of GMCMI. Jane will be missed by all who...

Here is a posting from 12 years ago on the topic that was discussed yesterday about cracking hoses. > Since the coach has been "resting" since the GMCWS rally, yesterday > was start and run day for it and the Onan . Fired everything up, > turned on the AC and walked away to clean up the shop...

I wasn’t seriously asking for help. It was already wired up and working when I sent the email. I just thought some would get a laugh from the instructions. Emery Stora > > Ground the white wire. Brake light is the red wire, tail light is the black wire. > > --johnny > > -- > 76 26'...

I just bought a tail light for a boat trailer. Made in China. Can anyone interpret the instructions? :) “The white line is negative. Red line for the positive light. Black line for the low light. This for the red light. Other light is a black line or red line as long as any one can.” LOL...

I would like to buy a spare starter fo my 455. Does anyone have one they could bring to Amana in September? Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick, CO > > Option #4: Attend the swap meet at a GMCMI (or other) rally and buy an alternator and starter. Contact John Sharpe and he'll direct > you to...

Maybe - maybe not. Emery Stora > > storage

Have you tried water alone? Probably the same as with water wetter. But not good from a corrosion viewpoint. Also, no antifoam, water pump lubricant or rubber/seal anti swell properties. Emery Stora > > I have founfd no difference with the water wetter when used with 50% glycol AF. I have no...

Should have read “water fill” Emery Stora > > fiberglass.

The hole in the passenger side cabinet is not stock. Someone may have put a radio in it. The other end (the footboard) is just a top and front which covers the waterfall. It doesn’t open but I put two boxes into mine and two oval holes in the front so I could store things there. There is...

As he said “The system is quite capable when it's working correctly as supplied.” So why put in Redline and Evans after it’s fixed. 99.99% or so of the GMCs work fine with a good regular ethylene glycol coolant (Prestone and others). I would never consider changing to those products. Using...

I was on a trip once crossing Nebraska at North Platt. I pulled into a rest area and when trying to restart the starter would not run. I telephoned a couple of auto parts stores and found no one had one but a NAPA told me they had a shop and a rebuilder would be there at 9:00 am the next...

All kinds of bad things can happen when the battery terminals are reversed. That is a serious mistake. Just reconnecting them back properly probably won’t “fix” things. If the Walmart employee did this then Walmart is liable. You should talk to the manager and get him to agree that you can...

It isn’t just an ordinary starter solenoid. You want to buy a continuous duty one. If it doesn’t have that rating it may not last long. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick, CO > > So is something like this correct, even though it's called a Starter Solenoid (looks similar). I found this on one...

You say it isn’t needed because if the rare times it’s used. That may be but if your engine battery or your Onan start battery goes dead you’ll be glad you have the boost switch to get things started. Especially if it happens on an exit ramp or on a busy highway where it would be difficult to...

Bill - a little correction here. Local GMC clubs are not members of GMCMI. All GMC clubs are members of FMCA. Many members of other GMC clubs are also members of GMCMI but their individual clubs are not. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick, CO > > Quote: >> GMC2000said..... yep, and its more...

Les Having all those sites you mention on one site may sound good to you but it is never going to happen. First there are several individuals putting time into collecting information and maintaining their site. Would you expect that they would all continue to do this if it’s on someone else’s...

Jon - Probably due to the brand of the belt and the tension. I have had a 100 amp alternator for over 20 years and I don’t have an squeal or belt life problem and I have the single groove pulley on the alternator. Someone with that problem should probably try an industrial belt. They are...

The flat metal lock was standard on my 1977 GMC. It was not an add on. Many of us have changed the locks to a later model Hehr lock which makes the windows much easier to open. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick, CO > > so the OEM windows are not very secure? maybe thats what that strange...

No it’s not for a vent or rear air conditioner. As I posted earlier it’s for use in the bathroom without having an outlet in the bathroom exposed to a water from the shower. There usually is 120 v line provided for a rear air. The line is under the ceiling panel near the vent opening. Emery...
