Al, if you come to Montana and you can either go south from Livingston or
Bozeman. Both roads are great with outstanding scenery. Ernie- was in wwest yellowstone last week [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

All Detroits, or just the Series 60? Any idea about the 8V92? My normal op
temp is around 190, and when it gets to 200 (seldom happens) I turn on the Fan Overide switch. That cools it down pretty fast (down to 170 or so in just a few minutes). Kevin Mc YL CA 86 38 PT [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

This confirms what Detroit Diesel told me about
the Series 60. They said, "keep the temperature below 210 deg F, and anything over 220 deg F. will cause engine damage".

All electronic controlled Detroits are equipped with a high
temperature shut-off. What temperature is it set for? Anyone know? R.E.

One of the problems with that statement is: All temperature guages
are accurate plus the fact that with a 190 degree thermostat, it is easy to get to 200 degrees while cycling the thermostat and climbing a steep grade. When my unit is opening and closing, my guage moves from as low as 180 degrees to 200 degrees. This is mostly when I get on the road after the coach has been sitting for a while. R.E.

Bob. The raditor got hot because the cooling fins were pluged with dirt and
leaves and the fins themself were rotted from vroad acids and would crumble on touch.

Al. We just came thou the east gate, It's not shut down it has one way
traciffic running with a pilot car expect about a 25 min. delay at most .The second time I tried to go to Yellowstone we went thur Dayton Wy. It's exit 9 on I-29 the route isno# 14 and you come out at shell Wy. and Greybull .It's not a rough as hwy 16. The other plus is that you can stay at Cody Wy. and there is a lots of things to see and do. You need at least 2 days at the Windchester museum ,It's a great palce to visit,You can dry camp on your way to Yellowstone from Cody .Just beware there is wild bears in that country.Dave 1991 WLPT 40 >From: "Al" >Reply-To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com >To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com >Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Re: 1991 WL PT 40 >Date: Fri, 01 Jul 2005 03:09:38 -0000 > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |
