Hello everyone!
First post here, and if this is in the wrong place feel free to let me know or move it (apologies in advance!)
I just purchased a 1981 Dodge Motorhome seen here (Attached)
It drove pretty well during the test drive, but when we started to drive it home, we noticed it was driving rough. So we pulled over, let it rest awhile, and then started up again. We ended up doing this 3 times until we finally gave up and left it on the side of the road until morning when we can figure something out.
My question is...any idea what could be going on? Are these model RV's known to have an issue? I know its ancient, but the listing for it said the following:
Dodge motor home like new tires, new water pump, new carbetator, new transmission,new tub, new exterior lights.
If its a new transmission, could that still be the issue? The Engine? Really disappointed we spent good money on this only to have it die on the way home.
Cheers,
FBF
