Subject: gas engine Author: Steve Phillips [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 01/ 19/ 05, 4:02pm Hi All Iam thinking of selling my 78 Gmc Birchaven and buying a Bird. I was wondering what are the pros and cons OF THE big Ford gas engines? Also is there an interactive web site for the Bluebird MH? Thanks for your reply Steve [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: gas engine Author: Curt Sprenger [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 01/ 20/ 05, 6:13am Steve, I own a 1974 Bluebird foward control (FC) 31' with a Ford 534CI gas engine. Just replaced the original carb. with a 750 holley. Getting better mileage now, 6.5+ on flat ground, better than 5 in the hills. I may want to sell the coach as I plan to move up to a 40' diesel pusher. Interactive site...try www.wanderlodge.org . I've been on that site for almost two years, great site, very helpful folks there, only for Bluebird owners, well moderated. Curt [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> Subject: Re: gas engine Author: Steve Anderson [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 01/ 20/ 05, 11:19am With regards to the reply you recieved from Curt about Wanderlodge.org: The archieved data on that website is invaluable to all Wanderlodge owners and wannabes. There is a huge amount of archieved data on this Vintage Bird site also. nearly any problem that can be imagined has been previously experienced and the answers are usually here.
