Sharpstalk,

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f160...ment-9584.html

If you have someone else do it, be very specific about what you want. We weren’t....so it’s on our ever growing “to do” list.

Also, this site has a lot of good info: THISOLDRV.COM | Community Forum
It’s all older Moho’s.

The parts are:
Chevrolet Belts:
Crank, Water Pump, Alternator, Air Pump GM 14087540
Crank, Water Pump, Compressor, Power Steering DAYCO 15600
Crank, Power Steering DAYCO 15410
Power Steering, Air Pump GM 9433743

Fuel Filter-in line at tank NAPA 3033
or
GM 854619
Now, these were copied from 1989 paperwork, so I don’t know if these #’s are still viable. 454 is a common engine, so they’ll be easy to find.


Our scanner is not working, so a copy is ready to mail, if you need it. Also, do you need other spec stuff, like tank capacities, glove box fuse ID.....?

Michael will have to chime in about the water filter. I don’t remember. We also use one of those filter pitchers, for drinking water.



Silverback -> Do you need anything? Diesel config. is probably different, but see what you can use....

Hi! Just finished helping wife make new curtains for our 345 and it took us one weekend.We are not seamstress and it is easy if you use the little slides that are available from most rv suppliers. I'll try to find the old curtains and send you the measurements. Many guy's here in East Texas are pulling 60K bass boats behind their 35K pick-ups so I dont feel to bad putting a few $'s into my silver shaft .....we all need a toy!Pete

Hi Pete,
I am not a sewer at this time. The latest mechanic measured everything today and took pictures of the curtains so I could email it all to Airstream.

I would love it in the mail. I did print out this post too. I printed out the fuzzy post too and gave it to the mechanic so he can give me measurements and a quote.

Once I get the manuals back from the mechanic I can check to see if the same items are listed there for the '87, if that info is there.

Thanks!
Karen

This is from ScrapIrony-2,

Oh, I almost forgot...I don’t know if it’s a design flaw for 345, or a common problem. Get one of those cone-type rubber sink stoppers for the shower. And use something heavy to hold it in place (we use a big, smooth rock). When you empty the kitchen sink, or the jiggling from traveling, the gray water tank will forcibly back flow into the shower.


Anyone else have this problem?
Karen

OMG! Just got a list from a 17 hour diagnosis. I will attach the pdf of what they did and wait for feedback from everyone. I go on Monday to go over pricing for each repair.

Please let me know what you all think I can skip at this time.

thought i would let you know i replaced all the blinds with day/night shades from Camping world. Recieved new curtain pieces the plastic ones from Parkview rv in delaware. The parts people are real knowledgable about airstreams and i havent had any problems with the parts or service. I live in Nevada. Had all upholstery redone by a local place, Got the manuals from secretarial services. Still have a lot more work trying for another two months to be on the roas with it.

Thanks for the information. I have new curtains coming from airstream next week and the rv mechanic we have been using for the last month decided (wonderfully) without asking to redo all the holders on all the wood blinds for us to make sure that they stay secure.

Just waiting on the new radiator and then we should finally have it back at the end of this week.

The wait is killing me. 81 days of ownership, but no motor home to use yet!
