On a 7 or eight year old build sheet Newell has an Air Cam option.  Is that a 360 birds eye view driving camera or what?  See attached snip.  Thanks,



Eric

Here's the manual for #663.  I scanned it at a resolution such that it should be a searchable document.

There doesn't seem to be many plans here, thought I would contribute to the cause.

I would like information to help me find a replacement rear bumper for my 1986 Newell.
Mine got bent and no one seems to want to try to straighten it.

I wonder if anyone can help me with this

Thanks

Found a potential disaster waiting to happen.  I notice that my coach batteries (Interstate 8D) where cooking on shore power in the float charge mode.  Went back into the settings on the Heart Interface Link 2000 and found the battery amp hour setting set to an abnormaly high number (don't remember the number).  The batteries had a marking of "CCA 1400" with no AMP hour markins.  The battery manufacturing spec is a 270 AMP hour rating.  Given two parallel strings I changed the setting to 540 amp hour capacity.  The batteries are now charging as they are supposed to be charged.      NOTE;  Just realized what I wrote, this setting is incorrect.  I can't have two parallel strings as that would be 24 volts.  If the battery installation was done correctly there should be six 12v batteries in parallel given me 1620 amp hours @ 12v.  I will have to go back and check the layout to verify.  

What I suspect happened, someone changed the AMP hour setting (recent battery install) to some number based on the CCA rating which resulted in the charger thinking we had a huge battery bank.  If this setup had continued unabated I would be buying new batteries before long.

So I am wondering about my fuel water separators. I have the clear plastic drain bowls on the bottom which are black so I have been trying to loosen them for cleaning and after soaking with penetrating oil for weeks I now have them both loose. But so it now dawns on me, now what? If I drop the bowls for cleaning does the fuel come gushing out? And what is inside the large black housing the bowls are attached to? Also what are the odds that they would need new o rings? Anyone replace these units with newer versions and if so what are they. 

Thanks
Brad

This is a totally self-indulgent post/thread, but here goes:

As my coach education continues, I'm heading to West Palm Beach, next week, for the Prevost Expo (I'll be there Tuesday through Thursday). If there are any Gurus in that vicinity or even somewhat on the driving route from WPB to Philadelphia who wouldn't mind showing off your coach for a couple hours to a wannabe, I'd love to connect. I'm willing to add a total of 6 hours drive time to my trip, so you can't be in Texas, but it doesn't need to be the I-95 corridor, for sure. Smile

Feel free to PM me if you prefer...thanks.

Not a for sale but maybe someone knows of a coach that isn't actively for sale but was or could be.  We are looking for an early steering tag, mid-door coach.  We have a 96 45' Newell for sale that I'll be putting up on RV Trader shortly.
