Re: U280 vs U300

My problem was NOT an engine related problem. It was a fuel supply problem that had apparently built up over time, compounded by age of the coach, and yet, after calling around and going around to almost every single diesel shop in the northern half of Wisconsin I finally got a lead on someone that was familiar with and did repairs on the old DD engines/those without computer controls.
The man was familiar with these DD engines up here because they are used in school buses, fire trucks, and stationary irrigation systems.
If there was a computer diagnostics system on board then the problem would most likely have been called up and repaired without a lot of part swapping and head scratching guesswork.
