Today I decided to take the bus for a spin. I was headed to the DMV to have them verify the vin so that I could get it registered here in Nevada. No such luck. The bus basically refused to run well. It would idle okay but would not accelerate. There was a 3 to 4 second lag behind me pressing the gas pedal. Then it would increase in revs till it hit the governor and then cut back to idle speed. After some investigation I came to the conclusion that the air filter was bad. I went and checked and it was a Ecolite 62891-001. I call for a price and was told $150. Are they kidding me. $150 for an air cleaner. It is two feet long and 10 inches across but still. I started looking around and found it for $123. That's still a chunk of change for me. After all its just a medal can with some paper inside. Why in the world would it be so expensive. So now one more impediment to me leaving Las Vegas. I should write a book. After all I have been leaving Las Vegas for about two years now. I'll keep you up to date.
