Glad to hear you are back on the road.
I have been following since the beginning and also sitting on the edge of my seat.
Sorry you had a month of aggravation but you sailed through it like a trooper.
Hopefully no more “projects” required.
Happy New Year!

Hey that’s very good news that you’re back on the road. I’ve been watching this from the beginning too. And since we have the same year/model coach I’ve been watching closely 
When you have time I’m also curious to know what other parts you needed to change the caps pump. I’d like to have an idea if I have to do the same thing. No rush, just whenever you have a chance.

Well done sir. 
My hat is off to you. 
I just bet there was a big cheer, sigh of relief, when it started.
A long road to get there.
Any further details will be much appreciated. I am now going to make a coffee, sit back and reread this entire thread so I can make notes and learn as much as I can from your experience. Thank you so much for sharing this with us all.  I'm sure that everyone following this has learned a great deal. I know I have.

Glad you got it running.
I would be curious as to the total cost including what the mobile mechanic charged.
Safe travels

Frank has held all of us spellbound through this ordeal. In my opinion, Frank is quite
an amazing man. Who among us would or could have seen this through as he did?
I'm pretty sure I couldn't have coped with the conditions and frustration.
I thought I was pretty capable when I was younger, but today, no way.

I'm going to send him a gift card to his fav restaurant in Saint Paul MN when he gets home. He has helped many of us, and because of him, I am starting my AirDog pump installation next week.

Believe he mentioned St Paul, Mn as home. He’s near Denver. So about 900 miles.
