How To: Starting a GM3302TDH New Look (Fishbowl) Bus That's Been Sitting
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 вер 2022
- This is video #3 on our 1972 GMC New Look Bus (Fishbowl) that shows how to more effectively start one of these buses. Since our bus is the "baby" fishbowl at 29ft, our bus came with the uncommon 476 Toro flow diesel instead of a Detroit. We wish we would have known this when we bought the bus originally, as it would have made this process so much easier! When we bought the bus there wasn't any videos that we could find at the time that show how to start it. Through trial and error, we found a much easier solution than what we were doing.
UPDATE 2024: The bus is for sale if anyone would like to purchase it. We really wanted to overhaul the bus and take it to shows, but if any breakdowns occurred on the road that we weren't able to fix we wouldn't be able to afford a massive tow bill to get it back to the shop.

This particular GM new look model is a rare bird. I’ve only seen it in service once. I call it a horizontal chop job. 🙂 great job. 🙂
Haha thanks! They didn't make very many of these according to the production numbers I could find. We haven't came across any others in action, would love to see another one in person.
This old school 🏫 is a classic to restore for a great project.
You guys look like a fun bunch to hang out with
Thanks :-)
I had a 1963 GM 4505, CHOP. It was a real chopped down from a 35 foot to a 30 foot model. It had a 6V71 engine. Never failed to start.
That's sweet!!
Always nice to have God as your co-pilot when you driving a sketchy old bus.
The best bus America ever made I know my dad had a few of them
loving your videos, keep them up
Thanks, will do!
I would like to enjoy the ride on the bus too.
The bus is for sale
Toro Flowin' in the Baby Bowl!!!!!!!! Get em Kids😂🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
always wanted one for an RV conversion
That is our intentions with ours :-)
EXCELENTE!!
It is nice to see and hear a GMC Toro Flow DH478 engine. We had a few buses at the transit system I started with in 1974. The Toro Flow was only used in GMC TDH 3501, 3502, 3301 and 3302 buses (all 30-foot vehicles). The Toro Flow was not used in any GMC buses after 1972. It would be nice to know the serial number of the bus so I can research the original system that operated this particular bus. Do you have the number anywhere?
i see she has her new fridge in the bus already
Cool
Thank you
👍🏻👍🏻
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
the engine sounds like it has a sticking valve or injector sticking.
What happened to the door switch?
Toro Flow
Are y'all going to convert it? Looks really cool.
Yes that’s our goal, right now we are just going through the brakes and air systems to be able to safety drive it. We plan on using as is and working on the inside a little at a time.
@@ResurrectedGarage cool, I just bought an MCI MC9 Custom Coach Corporation conversion, I've got a lot to learn
Are you ever going to fix your front doors? And where is your door handle?
Yes, fixing the doors is on our list of to do's. Unfortunately whoever owned the bus previously removed the door handle and the door mechanism.
??? Why not simply tighten the belts before starting the engine and especially before driving the bus (instead of writing down the plan to do it as a kind of subtitle)???
He didn't want to shut the engine off after it was started; the battery was weak and didn't want to fight with it. I just put the subtle in there so people wouldn't fuss about it LOL.

I don't think he works on 4-stroke engines.
