I have a restored (mostly) 1975 GMC 26' motor home. My wife and I are on a trip and the motor started missing badly about 300 miles from home. Pulled into a "RV repair" place yesterday in Needles CA. They spent six hours and 300 bucks of my money trying to figure out what was the cause. My regular guy - Miguel Mendez - of MGM - GMC in Upland CA. Knew that the guy in needles was not hunting in the right place and drove up today on Sunday and fixed my coach. And then charged me less than it was worth. He needs to be put in the hall of fame for mechanics. IMHO.
