Does anyone know the exact height of a 1990 Allegro 31B? I'm looking to have it shipped to Arkansas from upstate New York and the heavy haulers need an exact height to quote me a price. Thanks in advance
I'm a babe in the woods, yet, but we've already taken the camper for one trip that was successful in spite of all the provincial campgrounds closing over COVID19. Our Econoline camper seems mechanically sound. The one issue that requires attention in the ceiling over the upper bunk is sagging enough to make it claustrophobic up there. So some time this week I need to sneak a peak inside the ceiling to know which of the various youtube solutions I should use!
Daniel Long, found a forum that contradicts my "Neutral Safety Switch" post. Stating it is found on the lower column, assumed to be the steering column.
Hey Chester, thanks for the chat this am over coffee! Anything that generates a auto parts shopping list is okay with me! Need a new chainsaw, too but that's another story....
Just cranks fine (until battery is dead) but no spark, so it's rooted in the distributor/coil area. The parts aren't bad it's just a shame that after only a year and 900 miles (okay a good deal of idling to keep the girl in shape during winter) those parts are going.
I'm going to try and new cap and see if that clears it up. I'm not looking forward to a pickup coil, that involves partial disassembly of the unit. I checked the ignition switch, it's working as it should.
It's nice to see someone else who knows what a B-29 is. Yes, I like the older stuff. I appreciate your comments. I am at the beginning stages of this journey. I think my first order of business is finding a place to do the work. I live in an apartment, so no garage to work from. I do have some ideas - might have to wait until spring to really start digging in.

Does it seem like it wants to start when releasing key?

Iam looking for tailights for our 1982 Travelmate motorhome. They have 3 lenses and are surface mount. They were very common in the 70 and 80 not made anymore. Looking to purchase a pair.
