No Longer a Lurker. This Board Is Great!!!
Hi Everyone,
I have been watching and more importantly reading this Group since June. I have just retired and have been interested in getting a motorhome and seeing the country with my wife, Jo. My grandchildren want to take the initial and are already planning the route (Zion, Yellowstone, Mount Rushmore, and D.C. (my oldest grandson wants to be president). Took the leap two weeks ago based on the info I found here. I purchased a '87 PT40 on EBay. Some minor issues so far. Mainly maintenance. Here is my thanks to the Board, I was cleaning up the batteries filling the cells, after finishing and playing with the switches inside. Couldn't get it started. Read the manuals, pulled the ignition switch and swore a little bit. After a full day with no luck, I used the search feature (How come ignition doesn't have an "n" after the first "i"). Thank You Jim Darst and his posting on the A/T switch!!! I did see in the manual the Anti Tamper switch, but looking at the dash A/T switch, it just didn't register. I have found a wealth of useful information in the messages, files, database, photos, and links. Its everywhere!!! Thanks to all the great contributors, which is everyone who does contribute!!!

Jo & Bill,
Congrats on the new-to-you Bird! Let the learning experiences begin! Unless you are out of the ordinary, it probably won't be the last time the A/T switch tests your patience. Good job on the search feature! ;^) Mike Bulriss 1991 WB40 "Texas Minivan" San Antonio, TX --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "what1not" > > Hi Everyone, > > I have been watching and more importantly reading this Group since > June.
