Removing Coolant Hoses As a non mechanic there has definitely been some interesting learning here Basically I ve learned that the way most buses work is that they run long insulated automotive tubing from the engine towards the back of the bus Some of these hoses contain circulate coolant for heating the bus the others carry air conditioner from the compressor in the back to the front Well since we re modifying the bus none of this is necessary The old A C compressor is huge heavy and unnecessary I basically spent the entirety of my bus working day removing all of these old tubes and wires photo 258474 258221 0 center This is what the mess looks like from the back You can see the A C box towards the right photo photo 258475 258221 0 center This was the fan in the center of the bus that I removed last week Little did I know at the time that one of the hoses connected to it contained coolant Fortunately the bus had been off photo photo 258485 258221 0 center Just a side view of the bus at sunset photo br style clear both You can actually see the tubes hanging out the bottom on that last photo In all I m guessing I removed about 140 feet worth of tubing and probably more than 1 000 feet of wiring The only thing left to remove is the A C unit itself I m going to have a welder create a custom box there to house the generator a lockable cage of course
