I have just spent some time reading all of this thread. My old rv is a 1976 Kings Highway, 440. I have had it for 5 years. It has been very enjoyable and dependable with only two problems. One is vapor lock, which I got plenty of tips on in an eariler post, which I am presently working on.
The other is that somethimes it will not start, no fire at the coil wire. If I use a jumper wire to ground from the negitive side of ignition coil to engine, it makes a spark and then starts as soon as I turn the key. New ignition module, coil, rebuilt distributor, spark plugs and wires, cap and rotor. If anyone has had this type of problem, any help would be great.
Also, I need to reseal my windows, RV is fiberglass with aluminum frame. If anyone has reasealed windows in a similar type of RV, please let me know what to use as sealant, and procedure.
Thanks in advance
