What sensor was the culprit if I may ask.
And what is your Engine, 300, 325, 350?
Thanks,
Ed

Lol! Yes, for motion sickness. Works great & only treats the vomiting /nausea, doesn't knock them out. One pill is good for 24 hours.

Sorry! Was "off the grid" in the Florida Everglades - zero cell service! Manifold sensor, the other 2 things we were told to check out were the "waste gate (?)" & the hose to the waste gate. Have no clue what any of of those are, lol! We have a 99 Dream with a 350 hp engine.

The waste gate is part of the engine exhaust brake, it could get stuck. The gate is actuated using compressed air so the hose may be associated with that.
I use a combination of Biobor, a diesel algaecide, and Startron, which is a an enzyme treatment, which is suppose to breakdown the algae.
If I'm on a trip driving I won't put it in but if I plan to leave the rig sitting for any time I'll add it.

X2. Never heard it before I saw the post the other day. Bet I have used it 10 times the last 2 days.
Unfortunately , I was the fire hydrant in most of those. 😳

The "Wastegate" is part of the turbo to release excess boost pressure. Your exhaust brake uses air pressure to operate it.

Just to make everyone aware, Lisablue doesnt have to worry about fuel filters anymore. On their way back from this voyage they had a blow out and ended up totaling the coach. Thank god no one was hurt but I'm sure some encouraging words might help.

Thank goodness you said that. I sooooo wanted to post that it appears you were the hydrant.
So glad you and your husband are ok.
