Place to park B around Georgia in March 2017

Our first 3 races of 2017 are in the Georgia area. 3/5 Union SC, 3/12 Palatka FL and 3/26 in Sparta GA. Me and my Girl live in NJ and are thinking of keeping the B and my race bike parked in the Georgia area and commuting back and forth by train or bus, picking up the B on the Saturday before the ra...

Re: Photos of 1994 generator exhaust?

Just a follow up on my gen pipes. I purchased the correct thin wall .052 tube with a OD of 1.250 from a company called Stock Car Steel in North Carolina. Also purchased a Onan resonator 155-2449. Purchased a cheep ($50) used hand pump hydraulic pipe bender sold by Harbor Freight and went to playing....

Re: busted bedroom window?

Just a little update on my bedroom window. The window is now manufactured by Guardian in the USA and was drop shipped from them. The seal and lock were drop shipped from airstream. The cost of the glass 195329-167 is $534.72. The seal 195329-168 was $2.33 a ft. and the lock 195329-166 was $1.87 a ft...

Re: How to remove the generator

When I replaced the fuel line on my generator, (94) I just removed the exhaust and retaining bolts from underneath. Their was plenty of hose and cable to slide the generator out before disconnecting it. I have a hydraulic table (any table approximately the right height would work) and slid it out th...

Gen fuel line

I was having problems from time to time with the generator just quitting after it has run for awhile. Replaced the fuel filter with a new 1/4 inch one but used a clear one. Seemed to fix it but notice the filter was full of air and only had fuel in the very bottom. When the generator would quit I no...

Ignition feed to fridge relay?

I ran across a few problems with the fridge on our 94. My girl left the fridge on 12V when we got home (I forgot too!) and the house battery was dead. Figured someone rewired it so I would make it a point to make sure it was turned off. After the race at Snowshoe WV when we got home the fridge was D...

Re: Auto fluid

Here in the states the bottles say DexronIII/Mercon When I rebuild the transmission in my B I used Valvoline full synthetic DexIII/Merc. I usually just recommend a brand name fluid but I always put the good stuff in my own vehicles. Edit: I was on a UK sight and the listings are way different then h...

Re: Shower/Tub rehab of Keystone's '94 van

Me and my girl did exactly the same rehab on our 94 thanks to Keystone's post. We went a couple step further and removed the tub to refinish it so we could reseal the inside edge when it was installed. It also gave me a chance to put a couple of 2X4 support legs under the tub support. And we replace...

Re: Auto fluid

1996 takes Mercon. Basically the bottle should say Dexron/Mercon. A pan service with filter will take 7-8 quarts You can drain the converter through the rubber plug on the bell housing lining up the 7/16 plug with the hole for another 5-6 quarts. The transmission will hold approximately 16 quarts dr...

Re: busted bedroom window?

Yes it was the large one up front. I found your thread "save your upper front windshield" after putting the part # in the search box. A picture says a thousand words! Especially the one with the manufacturer and the word "LAMINATED!" I don't know what moron would have replaced th...

busted bedroom window?

Cruising down the road doing about 65-70 and all of a sudden the bedroom glass shatters blowing safety glass around and nearly giving my girl a hart attack. Looking at the replacement window, it is curved. The glass that was in the B if I can remember might have been flat? And it definitely wasn't l...

Re: Photos of 1994 generator exhaust?

Thanks Keystone. I see now that it is actually one complete piece of pipe, not multiple components.

Need help with Gen Pipes!

I could really use some help on the pipe configuration on the B190's Gen pipes. I believe the 92-96 should be the same. Not a single muffler shop can bend pipe smaller then 1.5"(1.65 in exhaust talk). I was thinking of using 1" conduit and bending and swaging it myself. but if anyone can h...

Photos of 1994 generator exhaust?

I kinda feel that the exhaust on my generator is going to be more then one kit. I can't find any information or a parts list for the pipes. From where the hanger is near the front of the rear tire and the pipe kits available I would guess I might need at least 3 kits. If anyone has some pics and One...

Re: Bonding agent

Thanks for the info. I have found out what the pale green stuff was. Simply Bondo (or another brand)! It seems that the wood which in this section is the only press board I have found in the B190 so far, wasn't properly prepped. The bondo adhered to the fiberglass very well but not so good to the bl...
