Racer in Need on I-44 in Missouri

Adub464Q · 06-05-2018, 02:46 PM

All,

A fellow D4 Super Street racer was travelling from Chicago to Tulsa for the division race this weekend. In the process, the motorhome shut off and will not start back. I know that it has a CAT motor in the motorhome and is a newer model.

They are currently at the Hood's Service Center at mm 61 on I-44 in Missouri.

Anyone that has any CAT or other motorhome knowledge may want to see if they can call them and provide assistance. I am not completely aware of what is going on, just trying to pass some information along.

While I have no experience with the newer CAT engines, I have heard that they really, really, like clean fuel filters. So I would put some new fuel filters on fuel...possibly a cheap fix.

Just a thought.

Austin we run some CAT's any idea what year it is. As Mr Grubbs said fuel can be a sensitive issue on them or in particular if it senses water in the fuel. Other than that there's not alot you can tell them on a CAT without hooking a computer to it.

Not sure what year it is, but I will ask.

Thanks for the suggestions, have sent them on.

Any Update?

It was towed to a CAT dealer in Missouri and is currently being checked out.

Sounds like he will not make Tulsa and they had to grab a hotel.
