The plan with the JB Weld was a success and it it holding well. So that solved our radiator fluid leak. Here is the video of me showing that it works.
So, once we let it run for a good 15 minutes with no leaking, we decided to see if it would drive. I drove it forward and then couldn’t find the reverse gear. In this bus you actually have to pull up on the stick a good inch and then it shifts all the way to the far left and up to get it in reverse. So here is the video of me driving it forward and reverse successfully.
By the time we were done and ready to drive it, everybody from the shop had left and I thought it was a bit to risky to take it farther because if something happened there is no way I could have gotten it back without dropping money in a tow truck. There is little reason to think that something will happen but I was be cautious so I was not sorry. Monday it might go up to the gate but I don’t want to take it on the road till it is insured.
