I just started my bird after it had sat for the last 3 months with
the levelers down and the hydraulic leveling system pump came on and
continued to run until I turned the auto level minder off. This has
not happened before, is it a problem?

Chuck, the first question that comes to mind, was the coach moving?? If
the pump was running it would be pushing fluid somewhere(if there was
fluid to push). Do you think the coach could have "settled" enough to
give an out of level condition, thus making the pump run? (got any
holes in the asphalt,or dirt or puddles of fluid on the
concrete...yikes) I would think if the pump is running and the coach is
not moving, then it would either be out/low of fluid, or the fluid is
bypassing the pump inside and running. If it is bypassing I would think
the trans fluid would show signs of aeration, pink milky/cloudy, rather
than red and clear. The system is kind of basic there is a starter
motor driving a pump to push fluid. On my 86FC the fluid tank is under
the entry step inside and the motor, and pump, are under the coach
under the step outside. Do your jacks retract, extend, like they should?
