1995 Gulf Stream Scenic Cruiser, Spartan EC2242 Chassie, Cummins B5.9 Engine, Allison 3060 Transmission.
US-2 Between Ashland Wi. and Iron Wood Mi.
Smelled funny oder and the low coolant light came on. Looked back into the bed room and saw fog. Pulled over and stopped MH and Engine. Lifted the Rear Engine cover and found the serpentine belt had broken and allowed the Anti-freeze to boil out. Was on a fringe area for our cell phones and took several hours to arrange tow back to Ashland Next evening $1018.00 lighter for new belt and belt tensioner we were on our way. Most expensive belt change I ever had done.
I am changing the Anti-Freeze and all the radiator hoses this weekend to prevent any problems from that side of the cooling system. Will also change the defective temperature sender unit for the idiot light and gauge that did not work when I needed them.
