' I'm starting the first of four window rebuilds in my 98' Serengeti due to fogging. I have the window loose and ready to lower to the ground but I have a question I hope someone can answer. I'm familiar with the two common gaskets used between the frame and the coach siding - Butyl putty, and foam ...

'Ross, Congratulations on the new rig. They are nice coaches. I always liked that color scheme when I was shopping for a Safari.  My 98' 37 foot Serengeti brake pedal pressure took a little getting used to because It seemed firmer than anything else I've driven before. That said, I find the brakes o...

'Bill, I use one too and think they are great. I used to strap a regular hand truck to my rear ladder until I came across this folding version on sale in a local hardware store. The only drawback is the smaller wheels don't work as well on bumpy ground but that's a small price to pay for the added c...

'Never heard of the Folex before, but from what I can tell, it's a non-ionic surfactant. Non-ionic just means ph neutral. Sounds like it would be worth a try.  For me I've used water with some "oxy-clean"(hydrogen peroxide) and a couple drops of dawn in a small bucket of warm water to clea...

'Thanks everyone, you've all addressed many of my own thoughts. I was afraid of putting a switch at the batteries because of the large load applied when starting. I didn't know if the engine and transmission ECUs needed continuous power to keep their memories. I have the motorhome at my house this w...

' The place where I store my 1998 3706 Serengeti does not supply any 110v power so I can't leave my coach plugged in while in storage.  I've experienced dead chassis batteries when I go to take it out of storage for use throughout the year. This last weekend the chassis batteries were dead after onl...

I just found this PDF document that mentions priming the system and that the clear prefilter will be partly filled with fuel. Looks like I'm good to go.

Thanks! 
After fiddling with the filter for a couple hours I decided to throw caution to the wind and started the engine. It ran just fine.

My system is a Racor 90S1230C, and I just installed the RK12963 upgrade filter kit and changed the secondary filter at the same time.. There isn't a priming pump on the secondary filter housing, just an electric priming pump on the primary housing. I pre filled the secondary filter before installing...
