I have been following some of the discussions here with respect to the DDEC systems. While not an RTS, my coach, an 89 Newell, has an 8V92TA DDEC II engine....
Greg, I would be interested in that project. I may be able to provide the spare
DDEC II that you desire as a guinea pig for experimentation. Please contact me...
I'm feel quite certain I wouldn't be the first to measure their bus. But in the files section I can't seem to locate a set of measurements. Does anyone have a...
I agree that this would be nice. I was going to start such a file, but I did not have a CAD program that would have made it easy to produce. My bus is...

I've found some Long Beach RTS'es going up for auction, and was wondering if they were anything worth looking at - I mean, some RTS'es in places I knew and...

Hi Grant, ...Yes that is correct. And for those who don't know: To read the engine serial number, you must flip up the rear seat and remove the engine access...

Hey everybody, I have just noticed on my 22.5 tires that came on the bus when I bought it is a warning stating max. speed 55 mph,are these going to be safe for...

Hey Bob, They're not lying about about that precation. But since they are like new you can probly get a good deal tradeing them in on some hyway tires. Call...
Jeff, The 6V-92 I bought to repower my RTS has a serial# of F152754.That would indicate a late engine,however it is an MUI.That seems inconsistant.Any idea...
If you run the transit tires on the freeway you run the risk of them overheating and coming apart, the longer the distance the more risk. And yes, I have heard...

It seems you're looking for an excuse not to do something that you know should be done. The manuf. could sell more tires if there wasn't that restriction. My...

I'm with Geoff and Wulf on this one. I saw one go on the left rear of one of the local transit RTS's. It was the inside one...came apart and took out the...
Hi Donn, ....I think that there was a period of time that DD was building both MUI and DDEC engines. The first year for DDEC was 1985, and there are plenty of...
