Blake where is the bus at in Gaithersburg? I'm not there now but I may have an honest contact there as I grew up right there in G-burg! I even graduated from G-burg high way back when it was something!

Let me know but your right, it IS short notice!

Hi Blake,

I have spoken to Anthony and am supposed to look at the bus tomorrow morning.  I can let you know what I find.  Of course I am looking at it for me so I might be biased

that the one on ebay with a hole punched through the door.

Won't air up.....so you won't be able to test a very expensive system.

there are reasons people will sell something at less than scrap value or parts value.

Also they've been relisted several times!    BK 

PS. If they relist 'm again, I'd be happy to look if I get this bid I just gave to go to Gaithrsburg near the end of July!

Check your air compressor govenor setting. Should cycle on at 90 to 100 psi, off at around 120 psi. Could be bad gauge reading, doubt it though.
Others will have more suggestions.

from the looks of the thing who knows.

Could be blown brake Diaphrams.

Good chance of leaking air bags or air beam that would allow volume of air to escape that compressor couldn't keep up with. Or some major leak.

I was told that you cant hear any air leaking so I am thinking it most be compressor related...Also it has all new air bags so I really hope its not those! I guess I will get to find out soon!!

What concerns me is the contact number for a guy that supposedly is always there. He has a 703 area code and when I lived in g-burg it was always 301. 703 was always in the neighboring state of Virginia. G-burg has always been 301 to my knowledge.
With all the bus scams, I would be very careful.

Its his cell number...I checked him out on google and he seems to be alright. He liquidates cars in a pretty wide spreed area out there... I really think he is alright as far as that goes..As to weather or not he know anything about the bus I will just have to find out!! I talked to Slow Rider and he looked at it, says it has a 6v92ta instead of the 8v71 that the guy listed so I might be in for a lot more surprises!!!
