Cold start the coachmem

The 1977 Coachman as taken a rest for 15 months that's long enough. A little oil in the transmission and it even moves. This is the best 350 cubic inch engine I have ever owned. We went from Pennsylvania to Texas and back in the Coachman with no problems we put over 3900 miles on it and it never used a drop of oil not even in the transmission.

@testbooster I hope you have some fun with it. My wife and me spent many enjoyable hours in that old camper.

Does that thing have hydro boost brakes? Looks like it?

Not even our 87 Ford 6.9 Diesel 26ft motorhome has that, it just has regular vacuum brakes.

@IDIDieselJohn Yes, that is a hydraulic assist breaking system. The power steering works off of that system as well. That type of system was a used for a brief period of time on the GM's bigger trucks in the mid to late 70's
