well I fell off the wagon and joined the wicked side and will be updating/finishing a conversion of a 1976 mc5b

🤠👍👍👍👍👍

It's a trap.

Hello is there a bearing in there

Have a MCI bus 5B model with a 8v71 what are the two belts horizontal going to i don't have those on my.

I’m having some trouble figuring out what the smaller contactor by the house battery does on my 2013 discovery. Would you happen to have an idea? Thanks

Question.... How did that system work for you? I'm in a situation where I can't put my black tank directly under the toilet. It is what it is, but I wanted to see if.that setup worked well for you

Welcome to my hood😊 Next time you are through the area, check out Monahans white sand dune park, Balmorhea has the world's largest spring fed pool, Junction has free hookups at the bank of the Llano river for overnight with a great breakfast cafe within walking distance and then into my neighborhood, Lost Maples park, Frio river is a clear running river where you can get underwater photos, Potters Creek is the best camping spot down near austin and San Antone right on the shores Canyon Lake etc. Went to Sul Ross University at Alpine, didn't know about there being a new campground nearby, I will have to check it out. For star gazing, at Fort McKavit there are star parties where Nasa scientists bring many telescopes for public viewing, and McDonald observatory is one of the best anywhere, with solar views during the day and fruendly staff that will turn that big puppy to close up view any planet or formation you desire (saturn was what I wanted to see, changed my inner picture of Saturn forever) thank you for sharing, and have a great weekend 😊

Been watching your videos originally because you helped us with our MCI conversion. Happy to see you are still posting. Awesome find on this camp site.

If you are still at Carlsbad, check out the wild caves, no admission fee and there's hundreds, with live formations and no guide...just hang out all day and enjoy ❤

Not as impressive as Sonora Caverns just down the road, it's like walking though a palace of geodes... Thanks for sharing 😊

Looks like a cool place!

Have the starter rebuilt by a good shop. It’s time

Twenty minutes to air up?way too long should be less than 1 minute.

There is nothing like soaring in the big beautiful blue sky. Oh, how I love to fly. I absolutely love how the two of you are living this chapter of your lives.

Very Nice. Look like to me there was parts on the old NAS Alameda.

great vidio many thanks

Did you ever find out what was causing the bus to shut down at a relatively cool temperature? Were the sensors set too low? My bus can run well over 200 F if necessary but usually sits at 190. My thermostats kick in at 180 I believe. I have a high, low, and off on the automatic fan. The door to the rad is also louvered which blows a lot of air on the rad at highway speeds.

What year is your bus and what engine does it have? 6V92? i have aluminum rims and they are fine. The tires have balance beads and it seems to work well enough.

Do you know about Scott Crosby, aka Bus Grease Monkey, in Centerville Tennessee? He is an expert on older buses and GMs in general. I wish they would put more height signs on the bridges. Its my huge fear being around 14 feet high. I saw in your last video that your engine runs at 150. That is really good. I run about 195 and that can go up a bit on big hills.

Love your dogs. Like the bus and the scenery. Bus RVs are a bit new to me. I got my first one - its a Prevost. Been enjoying some trips around Alberta and into the mountains. Hoping to cross Canada on my summer vacation. Subscribed.

More ice cream…..

Looks like a pretty cool place.

good stuff

Excellent

How much ⛽ did it take to go from va

Yes, I can sleep soundly tonight.

In 98 we took a 22’ 5er to Alaska for a 4 month trial. Wife said if we want to go full time we need a larger RV, bought a 33’ 5er, sold the house and put only the things we really wanted to save in storage.v (I have 2 railroad boxcars on some property). Then 5 years later the 33 was too small, went to 40’ 5er. Nice then went to a 45’ prevost with a 30’ stacker trailer. Then in 2018 after 18 years of full time living wife became ill. Alzheimer’s started setting in. We sold everything and found a condo near daughter and grandchildren and great grandchildren. Each day is a trial. Plan to upgrade the rv you have and save for emergency repairs. We traveled all summer and stayed at a resort for the winter. Keep a log book (journal) of your trip, you won’t regret it. We also kept a list of the rv parks we liked and site maps of goo spots. Buy the book The Next Exit, it shows each exit on the Interstate Highway System. Good luck.

Nice.. liked the fade to black at the end.

Heating element? Thanks for the update. 26:54

Ok….now I got an itch in my brain……how can I get a benefit if I got to wonder about the electrical heating element that’s not there? Is the motor home trying to tell you it’s not safe in cold areas and wants you to move South? You need to fix this soon for my mental health.

No dollar tree hose for you?

Nice ride. You do have to watch out for other vehicles don’t you. We are on a cruise right now, taking time from my boozing, buffet visiting, and napping schedule to watch your video is a testament how much I enjoy your projects.

good editnig- have a great day!

Never saw that before GR.

The rattle could be your bones. Good to see you where allowed to use her tailgate as a workbench.

Nice drive. About the new handbar, sounds interesting. Maybe put a GPS mapping so I don’t get sea sick watching you go around in circles. Beautiful trails.

What type of issues did u have with Va DMV for tags from a bus to an RV?

I have an 82 crusader 2 be nice to chat with where u got parts.and pieces from

im sorry, i couldnt watch the whole video because of the stupid annoying noise that you call music

your gear grinding is your RPMs are off

Why does it grind when shifting?

Nice job Newman…. Knowing you, and and your desire for more lightning, these lights provided a welcome solution for more lighting- because knowing, you skylights in the roof was next.

Very Nice.

Good info.

We just bought our 1975 Yellowstone Park Co. bus it's a MC-5B too. It has been setting and it was low on fuel and then it ran out so I have to prime it and was just searching to see if it had a type of primer system already on the fuel lines somewhere..

I wasn’t in the area.

Nice timing Newman - first to talk about ice cream and you go straight into the clear pipe for dumping smooth

Yeah, you have to like road and sidewalk riding to get places… not too bad though… appreciate your view and comment.

From what I have seen, the coast on almost the entire mid Atlantic, needs quite a bit of work to be cycling friendly. We have looked at going out and riding along the coast, but I found it very difficult to make good routes. Thanks for the video.
