Boy you really konw how to hurt a guy. I was thinking of setting up my garage in Jamestown. It's not god-forsaken just depressed, with a lot of cheap realestate. JIM

Are you talking Jimtown PA? There are some properties available in the Kinsman area that currently have buildings capable of housing a bus and only half as far for you to drive too.

I drove through Chardon (route 44) on my way to Painesville in December, WOW has that area built up since my last trip - maybe 10 years ago. Where'd all those people and houses come from?

[JIM CHALOUPKA]

Orren, It's Jimtown,NY. For my plan I need a garage close to lake Chautauqua to store the bus for the extended summer season. I don't want to leave it outdoors in some field without electric when we are at the lake.

Geauga county surely is getting built up and it seems there is a horse in every back yard. They say there are more horses in the county than people. I say there are more horses asses than horses! I can't wait to get out of here. I'm chompin at the bit!!

When I used to travel your area on a regular basis the only horses I saw were around Kirtland or up at Sidley's in Painesville.
My stepson is the pro at a golf course near Nunda NY. I know he has some barn space, but it's another couple of hours past Chautauqua (south west of Rochester). We're going to Florida in a week or so to visit him - I'll ask if he knows of anything available in the lake area.

We used to live for about 38 years in Jamestown, NY.

Property is cheap because taxes and utility costs are so high.

One of the happiest days of our lives was when we left Jamestown for Knoxville.

A year ago I had my OTR air changed from R12 to R134a. They flushed the system, changed oil, and replaced the seal. I was told the hoses would probably be OK.
Yesterday I had it serviced. I was told the condenser blower was too fast and if I could slow it down it would put out cooler air. Does this sound right?

Mark, I think what the service tech was getting at was that the air blowing through the condenser (which is the part of the system that gets cold by the refrigeration process and cools the air passing over/through it) is moving too fast and not getting as cool as it would if it took longer to blow through it. [(slower blower, slower air speed) = more cooling.] If the fan is belt driven often times a (split) adjustable shiv (pulley) is used to adjust the RPM of the fan, or you can change the non adjustable shiv (larger or smaller diameter) to adjust the RPM,s.
Need more ask. JIM

Mark, Please show and tell us about the Vulcan XL! JIM

Mark: Is your OTR system a Carrier or a York system? In other words, do you have a Prevost OTR or a converter system, such as a Country Coach?

Thanks in advance.
