BUSTED!!!

No I did not get ticketed, but 20 minutes out of Silverton, Oregon, our motor home was setting off alarms. The engine was overheating, the alternator light was illuminated, and the motor home started to lose power as we climbed this hill. I suspected the fan belt and sure enough it was loose. It seemed to be intact, but I could not even reach it to tighten it. Thank goodness we had cell reception and we contacted a mechanic in town just a few miles back. It turned out to be a serpentine belt tensionor. We sat on the side of the road for over ten hours while a new part was being ordered and delivered from Portland. Since we were unable to get camping reservations that night we just drove about 100 miles and spent the night in a rest area.
