Marcel....EXCELLENT! Can't wait for a complete trip report with PICS. Remember the rules...No pics = it didn't happen and

[Marcel67]

Well started this morning in Vernon tx and driove all the way to Magee ms on route 49 south. The MH is performing verry well and the only thing is my a/c is not working ;0(. Put fuel in Texas for $3.67 a gallon and filled her up. Sofar it's a nice ride just bouncing around makes you tired.

Tomorrow I try to make it home from Magee to miami fl. All set and done got a lot off tumbs up in the road.

Thanks to Slpwalker for some good advice but couldn't catch up with him ;0( anyway will put all pictures when back home.

[Marcel67]

Made it today to Gainesville fl. Tomorrow 5 more hours and I'm home. All is going well. Will post pictures tomorrow of the trip.

[Marcel67]

Made it home to Miami. Will post all pictures tomorrow. No major issues.

The following needs to be replaced or adjusted on my MH E9:

Need four new cab shocks, need to replace two shocks on the rear axle, need new ignition switch in cab. Need door key replaced ( can't lock the driver door, check airpresure on the air throttle that controls the rpm ( any advice welcome) she runs a little high at 800 rpm stationary. And I need to check why the a/c is not working (any advice is welcome) all done we saved another dog from export, and she found a good home. When all is some I'm thinking to strip the chassis and paint it fire truck red in clouding the sun visor. And then we need to go to work to make some dow$$$$$.

Nice looking MH and thanks for the pics. Mud flaps show Cleveland, OH....????

Suggest 34RC3131M (door and ignition lock cylinder kit), this will give you matching keys for both doors and ignition. The complete ignition switch is 1MR3427. As for the A/C, could just need charged. Cab shocks are 14QK376 (Monroe 66150).

Very nice looking ride!

[Marcel67]

Thanks Ken, dos your MH also have the air operated throttle? Mine was replaced by a MR model air throttle need to adjust the rpm down.

No air throttle. Mine is an EM7 V-Mac.

Very nice looking ride!

Yes indeed, great looking truck there!

[mack mhe9]

Very nice. Thanks for showing.

[Mack Doctor Jr.]

I agree a very nice ride indeed.

You should be able to adjust the idle setting at the pump mechanically, there shouldn't be any air in the cylinder at idle, should be under return spring tension.

Nice looking truck! looks in pretty good shape too! is that a wet-line or just a toolbox on the frame behind the cab? I also agree with Ken,easiest just to replace both locks,A/C may need charged,i remember when my MH was new the A/C didn't work when I picked it up! the Schrader valve wasn't seated properly and all the Freon leaked out!.....................Mark

[Marcel67]

Mark, no the truck dos not have a wet line kit. The box at the back is a toolbox. According to the first owner the a/stop working and he didn't bother to check it since he never really used it . I hope that a good recharge will do it.

[Marcel67]

Oh regarding the mud flaps, the truck was serviced there back in the days, and was originally sold new from there in 1993.
