Well the engine in the old Aluma-lite died a horrible and painful death. Cracked block so I don't think I will be resurrecting it any time soon. Now for the 6 million dollar question: what steps…Continue

"Well after WAY too long the old gal has a new rebuilt engine and is purring like a tiger. Had the fun job of siphoning out 50 gallons of very old gas. We are now turning our attention to updating the inside."

"Take the whole grill off...and the bumper.  My whole front end came off when I rewired the headlights.  Under that trim strip will be MORE screws, and the nose WILL come off..at least enough to remove the engine. "

"Well what I meant to say was there is no seam above the bumper between it and the grill. Now I wonder if I can just cut that small section out and the patch it back together?"

I drove long haul for a while as well. And I agree with the tire idea. Ad well as seeing the trailer where you want it to go.

Water pump died

On the trip home the water pump on the 454 locked up. The mechanic where I work, a good guy and worth it I am sure, wants $600 labor to replace it. To be honest I don't have that much free cash. Can anyone give me some pointers on removing the front end on a 91 Holiday Rambler Aluma-lite and a list of tools so I can try and do this myself. I have replaced water pumps on 350's but not motorhomes.
