  1. Trailer booked for saturday morning to take Elvis to Karl to find out why we had to get the Big Yellow Taxi back from spring camp.Wish us luck!!Elvis is NOT dead he is Sleeping and needed a rest!! :crossed ;D
     
  2. Best of luck for elvis

    What were the symptoms?
    Maybe we could have a guessing game as to the cause
     
  3. Oil coming out of a crack in the exhaust filling the cab with smoke and a little out the back.
     
  4. our thoughts and prayers are with you.
     
  5. Smoke in the cab is normally the exhaust leaking into the heat exchanger

    Oil shouldent be in the exhaust system but if your rocker cover gaskets are leaking and the heat exchanger is cracked it could drip onto the exchanger and into the heating system

    If oil is getting into the actual exhaust system then id imagine its a sign of very worn piston rings or missing valve stem seals
     
  6. Zed

    Terrible name for a bus...
     
  7. Oh I don't know - he appears to have died whilst expelling something from his rear. Pretty apt I'd say.
