Hope you have fun. I got a 91 Barth class A Oshkosh/John Deere w/ 460 Ford EFI 33 foot. I have done alot to get her ready.

If you have any questions on your Barth give us a shout as we are happy to help out. The one thing that's a constant on your Barth is "no 2 are alike"

Take care and thanks for the 411 on your Barth.

Danny, you mentioned that water will leave a trail as to where it is coming from, well that is the most frustrating part of this dilema. The ceiling in my Euro is a thin vinyl like material, white in color, which I am positive I could see if water was passing over or under it. Also the side walls are covered with a thick vinyl, brown in color, which I would not be able to see water behind, so I would see it if it was in the ceiling and would not if it is in the wall. So you say well then it must be in the wall dummy! but if it is in the wall and not the ceiling the only options are the passengers window or the door, both of which seem to be sealed up nicely.
