The freak oil leak that almost killed my 4104

[Nel]

Had a great trip from NY to Nashville and back 2 weeks ago, also posted our experience in Bus Stories and Travels section, well here is the pictures of the leak problem that could have ended our trip back very badly. the picture shows where a hose clamp that was mounted on a hose next to the oil pressure oil line wore through after who knows how many years of it being there , other picture shows my on the road repair with a hose I just happened to put in my collection of spare parts and tools. OK pictures too large will have to figure out how to attach them?

If you don't have one already, you should have a 5 psi NO switch to a warning light on the dash that would come on if you lose oil pressure.  Then you could stop if it happens again, and not loose your engine.

Some GM coaches have the engine guard system like ours. Engine will automatically shut down with, opening rear door, water temp too high or low oil pressure...

I like the oil and water level sensors the sensors will tell when you are getting low on water or oil they cost about 50 bucks each.
