Re: 1997 Sahara "Gas" Cap

'Mel, Googling that number came up with a number of matches to 1980's VW gas models. All those had sealed gas caps with charcoal canisters. Might end up with that, but, if someone has information on the OE cap, would like to start there. Brett --- In Safarifriends@yahoogroups.com, "stuplich@......

Total coolant capacity

'1997 Sahara 3540. Books show total coolant capacity as only 7.5 gallons. I am asking because our last coach (1993 Foretravel with Caterpillar 3116) had an 18 gallon TOTAL capacity-- very different. Does anyone who has actually changed coolant know if this is the TOTAL capacity: engine, radiator, ho...

Re: diesal storage-run motor monthly ???

'Jon, In a word, NO. If you start the coach engine, you need to be able to drive at least 25 highway miles (more if below 40 degrees F). You need to be able to get the OIL, not just coolant up to operating temperature for long enough to burn off moisture. If you can't do that, don't start it. Also, ...
