DESCRIPTION
This Service Center Information publication describes the procedure related to bulletin WB16-33.
On the vehicles affected by this bulletin, replace the engine information decal located in the engine
compartment.
Specifically, the decal located on the engine valve cover is correct, but the copy of the decal located on
the vertical panel has wrong engine family information. You have to remove the copy and replace it with
the replacement decal.
CORRECTIVE MEASURES
To ensure conformity with EPA regulations, the decal must be replaced by a certified Prevost technician.
Have in hand the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the warranty bulletin number WB16-33.

PROCEDURE
DANGER
Park vehicle safely, apply parking brake, stop engine. Prior to working on the vehicle, set the ignition
switch to the OFF position and trip the main circuit breakers equipped with a trip button. On the
Commuter type vehicles, set the battery master switch (master cut-out) to the OFF position.
Wear all required personal protection equipment (PPE).
Step A (Engine family number matching)
1. On the top of the engine valve cover
(fig 1), check engine family number first
character on the engine information
decal and write down the letter.
Do not remove any parts.
Because it is not possible to see the
decal directly, we suggest using a small
camera just over the decal and using the
picture to get the information you need.
FIG 1
For instance, figure 2 shows the letter G
as the first character.
Remember the engine information decal
located on the valve cover has the
correct engine family number so the first
character is the reference for the next
operations.
FIG 2

2. On the duplicate engine decal located on
the vertical metal panel (fig 3), check the
engine family number first character.
3. Compare the engine family number first
character on the valve cover decal with
engine family number first character on
the vertical panel.
4. You must have the same letter.
FIG 3
5. If characters match: If the engine family number first character on the valve cover is same than the
engine family number first character on the vertical panel, BULLETIN IS COMPLETED.
6. If characters don’t match: If the engine family number first character on the valve cover is different
than the engine family number first character on the vertical panel, you need to proceed to Step B.
Step B (Replacement of vertical panel engine information decal)
7. Open the replacement kit WB16-33.
8. Compare engine family number first character between the engine valve cover decal and the
replacement decal. The characters must match.
9. If characters don’t match: Stop processing the bulletin and contact your Prevost service manager
representative.
10. If characters match: Keep processing the bulletin.
11. Be careful not to damage other decals located on the vertical panel, if applicable.

12. Gently remove the engine information
decal located on the vertical metal panel.
Use a window scraper with a new blade
to avoid making marks on the surface
(Fig.4).
FIG 4
13. After removing old decal, use soft cleaning product such as anti-silicone to clean the surface and wait
until the surface is dry before applying the new decal.
14. Caution: The decal is fragile so remove
the backing paper very gently to avoid
any tearing.
FIG 5
15. Gently apply the replacement decal at
the same location than the old decal.
16. To be sure it is well bonded to the metal
surface, rub the decal with a plastic
scraper from the middle toward sides. If
you see any air bubbles on the surface
of the decal, use a small needle to bust it
and rub again with the scraper.
FIG 6
17. Destroy all unused decals.
18. BULLETIN IS COMPLETED.
