Hello everyone I recently joined the group and I am taking possession of 351 and the next coming weeks
I have been following a lot of of you guys’s post and I am extremely happy that I found this website. I have some experience with the Diesel pusher as I solo traveled in a 2005 Alfa gold 39’ Diesel pusher for about 2 1/2 years it was nice, but this thing is like 1000 times better.
it’s in a little bit of rough shape as it has sat for about six years I believe the motor sounds beautiful, but pretty much nothing on it works lol maybe one of the ACs out of the three, but I think with you guys’s help in a little bit of money ((maybe a lot)) I can get her back on the road. She already has brand new tires.
I’m hoping to find someone who is mechanically inclined in the Texas area before I go long distance. I’d like to see what I can do by myself and then I would love to maybe go buy someone else that is like way more knowledgeable on all the systems to see if maybe they can help :-).
As you can see some of the pipes are busted :-(I’m guessing they forgot to winterize it when the father got sick Only thing I could get to work was one of the ACs two of them are still pretty warm, but I was using a 5000 W Ot Gen Generator because I couldn’t get the 17.5 on board Generator working, but I suspect it’s because the batteries are too low and it’s not enough fuel so I think once I put the new batteries in there and put some diesel in there, then I can start troubleshooting the generator.
