[QUOTE="graysummers, post: 586343, member: 13185"] Hi Marty. When I first had the bus I did loads of tinkering (changed the starter motor, secured a wobbly steering wheel and other stuff). It made me realise that to keep the bus truly secure in bodywork and the really heavy duty stuff can,t happen on a drive in front of the house. Changing the starter motor with all that weight above me on axle stands and getting the damn thing off behind the casing, was a real challenge, and pretty scary. I want the engine stripped and rebuilt so I don't get 16 mph to a gallon. That and stopping and puttering out. This is why it's so important that I can leave it for him to do. Tune ups, I can go and learn. I've got the John Muir idiots guide to keeping the bus alive. So will be watching over it like a hawk. Nice to have your reply. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
