Title: Stranded in Bothel
Post by: Herrlowlight on July 15, 2017, 04:43:38 PM

Hey folks. Went to Vintage meet.. headed back north, got as far as Bothel and the generator seized dead.

Anybody headed down to SIR with a trailer? or dolly? My bus is insured but dead here.

I've got tools but not enough to pull the motor and swap the generator (which I don't have).

Thanks Russ.

Wasn't too bad, managed to find a new generator (off the shelf) and put it in Sunday in the hotel parking lot.
