are the cylinders numbered one through six from the harmonic balancer?

are the cylinders numbered one through six from the harmonic balancer?

Great video. Been watching a tonne of these and this is exactly the setup I am looking for. Bunk (double setup is okay), tv position, a washer dryer in the position of the other bunk, full shower, and queen bed. Anyone see something like this, please comment. Question is, would you move up in year or anything else unpractical you would want to change? Hoping you're well.

I had a GR Moto carbon look twin outlet on my 1250GS and it melted the indicator and burned a hole clean through the pannier.

makes a lot of sense... I have the same engine set up & I feel that the intake and pipping after the intercooler is poorly designed. With 2 tubes at 2" , they take a long rout with some hard elbow bends...Then mine has to make a 180 degree turn in the intake manifold. I like what you did & will be doing something similar... I also plan to "ram" air from the sides into the trans and engine bay, and belly pan under the trans and engine . I already have some dents on the oil pan, (used rv) , I would think the air would be cleaner and cooler, and maybe less "pull" on the fan, (more cfm)... a cooler air charge and radiator can only help.. a fan clutch or maybe a electric fan clutch might be usable after

What about the furnace? Can you wire the furnace into the controller?

What do you do for heat with the propane furnace removed? And how does the air ride work, I drive truck and I can over extend my bags for height to chain up and dump them for hooking a trailer. Can you adjust your height at all? I’m looking at a 2001 endeavour to replace the admiral. Never had a diesel bus just Kenworth’s…. Hopefully I can pick the ride height so I can get places. Thanks!

Good review! I just bought the hotwired pants, and now I'm thinking about buying the jacket liner and gloves because of your review. I thought the heated pants went under my riding gear at first, but like you say in your video, they run big. Normally, I wear an xl, maybe an LG, but with the pant liner, I fit in medium. Thanks for the video!

awesome video, thank you! You mentioned DD designed new ceramic rockers to replace the metal ones. Do you know if they started manufacturing engines with ceramic rockers, and if so, what year did they start? Thanks Ted

Great idea. Doing something similar for mine this fall. Thanks also for the links to the devices used! That little temp controller is awesome.

Finally getting around to messing with this and about to place my order. My unit is a 2004 Vacationeer and it has 13,500 front and 11,500 rear. I am going soft start with both and do not want to have to customize anything to make them work. Would the 13,500 work in place of the 11,500 unit from factory? Rec Pro has 9,500, 13,500 & 15,000 options.

Great idea of doing this. I broke a valve on my 99 Newell Coach last year. Coasted me $40,000 for a newly rebuilt S60

as always Ted, good information well presented

Do you think you used more fluid than you expected. Due to being on the upstream side of the CAC?

Great Video! I have a QD 6000W, which is on the drivers side rear in my Allegro. But, I am assuming steps are similar. Mine overheated a bit and is now that is making a rattling noise when hot (purrs when cold). So, I think that I have to do what you did (pull and do the valves, etc.).

Hi Ted, Thanks for a great video and all the great tips along the way!

Thanks for the video.

What is the mileage on your Detroit? Great video.

too late, but a trick would have been to cut the head off one of the old bolts and use it as an alignment pin, old fart mechanics talking LOL

You missed your opportunity to put a strip on it like the trim wheel on the big iron

As always good info, and well presented, are you all ready for 6Y9, i will share a link with you about my Mx costs this summer on the Journey

Great work. I have a DDEC 3 on my 1995 Liberty Conversion thats due for this. Way above my diesel pay grade though!

thank you!

Always a great lesson Ted thanks for the video.

Maybe you should consider "fixing" the rear closet engine cover to allow for easy access to the engine from the top. On my Newmar I adjusted/modified the engine cover in the closet area so I can remove it in about 5 minutes. This was a real improvement in allowing me to do maintenance from the top, i.e. fan gear box oil changes and engine crankcase filter.

Thanks for the video.

Glad to see you don't double click on your torque wrench. Many do and will argue to the death that double clicking doesn't create an over torque.

Good video. How many miles on your bus?

Nice video man I love the sound can you please do more exactly like this one but in the next one used to Jake brakes because I love the sound of a Jake brake. Stay safe man have a safe trip. I hope all is well with you.

Ted i hope you got all the asbuilt dwgs for this rig . Enjoy 🇺🇸

Curious to know what fuel filters you use. Another great video.

Welcome back my man Ted! Been a while, but I'm glad you're back! Very informative video - I never knew that stuff about replacing the damper on a Series 60! Now, I don't know if you saw, but I posted a comment on the video of opening the damper from your Cat 3126 - definitely check it if you haven't already!

Thanks for the video.

Nice vid. Really like the information you give. Do you have anything for cleaning and replacing the fuel injectors of the series 60?

Hi Ted, Thank you. Great video! Nice job, You made that look easy. You certainly answered a question I've been having. Like you, I've also noticed a very slight vibration at idle (very minor) and have wondered if changing the damper would have any effect on that. After watching your video I feel comfortable leaving it as is at least for now. Also the engine has very low mileage. Thank you once again, hope you and your family are having a great summer!❤❤❤

I've been considering the bluefire for a while now, but want to know what kind of information I can expect to get. My rv is a 1998 with 5.9L Cummins 24 valve. Is there a way to find out what the ECU will display without first buying the unit?

Thanks Ted. BTW is there a way I can get in contact with you?, I´m from mexico and I´ve a few questions for you about my endeavor 1999 36WGS.

Well done Ted. I have a 2005 Gulfstream TOY HAULER with an Onan quiet diesel 5500. Recently we dealt with hurricane Beryl. I figured the 70 gal diesel tank would last. To my dismay, after running the genny for a couple days, sometimes just for the microwave and AC, I lost Onan electricity. Odd is that I can get "shore power" fine when I plug the unit into a dual fuel portable genny. I checked the 2- 30amp breakers on the QD and reset them, I also reset all the A/C breakers in the home panel. So far I suspect the wiring block on the upper corner of the QD or the transfer switch. Most of Houston lost grid power....now 6 days. I may do as you did, and drop the unit from the coach and give it a once over. Your vid will be most useful. Only thing I would do different is use BLACK tie wraps instead of white. As a retired telco tech, we used plenty of black tie wraps which last much longer because of the black carbon content in the plastic. Second choice are the thin STAINLESS (with ball clamp) tie wraps. They are almost indestructible to heat, UV , chemical and corrosion. Visit me in Houston if you trip to the Gulf Coast.....good fishing and BBQ. Later Ted ;-)

Congratulations beautiful bus

Look under the bottom pan of the gen and see if your motor mount bolts have dropped down indicating the motor mounts under the motor have sagged or disintegrated. My bolts are about 5/8 lower than the pan so I think the noise is motor/alt mounts more than anything. I pulled mine out and did the same service but its still much louder than they where when new. Mine is a 2003 Kountry star. Thanks for the video, it reminded me how hard it is to inspect those mounts and why I didn't take a look at them.

Wow we upgraded our 2003 Holiday Rambler Endeavor . Thanks to your video. What a difference . Especially at night. Thank you. 👍👍👍👍

It would be interesting to see a video when you do maintenance on the Houghton unit. Does the whole cover come off or do you unsnap the upper from the lower plastic cover? Also, it looks like the fins only on one end are exposed that would need to be cleaned.

Very good videos. Thanks for educating us. 1997 Marathon XLV (Coach 429)

Thanks for all the Prevost videos. I have a new XLII about the same vintage as yours and they are super super helpful to understanding what is going on.

Looking forward to a video on the air leveling system

Hey bud just bought an XJR and thinking about doing the trans fluid just to be safe. Wondering if you could tell us the final amount of fluid you ended up using.

Awesome vid. Thanks Ted.

Do you know of a way to clean the fuel injectors and other engine common issues?
