after we changed the slide seal on tim's coach i took a small section of the old seal and kept it.  i took these pictures so you can see how it has a piece that snaps into the track on the coach.

Looking to have some work done on the generator and air system. Is there a reliable shop near Saint Cloud Fl or Orlando where I can put the coach on a pit or on lifts.

How can I make the slide seal NOT air itself up after the ignition key is off?

The title says it all. I am going to be speaking at this years expo and was wondering if anyone else is attending?

I've booked into the SanLan RV Resort as it's the nicest and closest I could find. About 67/50/night 67ft concrete pads.

Let me know if anyone else is going to the expo, love to meet up!

Dear All, after starting my generator I found cooling fluid leaking on the driver side of the engine of the generator. I was told that I need to disconnect the cooling fluid hoses from that engine and unbolt, lift the assembly and pull it out 45 degr. To see where the fluid leaks.
The top hose is easy to disconnect, but how to disconnect the lower hose behind the engine.
Can I reach that hose from under the coach between the front wheels?
Has anyone done this job already?
Thanks for Your comment.

I installed a Sanicon Turbo 600 macerator this week.  I used one for a few years on previous coach, it just seems easier than the Waste Master simply due to length required at many sites.  I have used 200' of macerator sewer line in the past with that system.  Here are my notes for those interested.

Will be actively looking to purchase a coach in the next couple of months, just retired and looking to become fulltimers. So to that end I have been looking at the coaches available on the various sites. The question I have for anybody with any knowledge they are willing to share, is why has Coach 589 been at MOT for such a long time? 
Thanks.

Hello All,
Just retired couple looking to sell our house in Washington State and purchase an early 2000's Newell. Plan is to fulltime for 6 to 9 months of the year and spend winters in Puerto Rico. Have been lurking on the site for a couple of months. Finally feel close enough to purchasing to register with you all.

I am starting to feel at a loss as to this problem. I replaced the air governor and once all the tanks were up and connected, I aired up the system using the 120v compressor. I heard air escaping the exhaust port of the governor. Ok I thought, maybe I got a bad one. I picked up another and put it in with the same thing. From there I put my old one back in and the same issue. When I first aired the system up I heard the air dryer (2 years old) pop off the purge. I replaced the purge valve with a cheapo amazon knockoff as a test bed. I still lose air from the governor exhaust port. Not sure what is going on here. Small air line (1/4" comes from supply tank pressurizes governor. 3/8" line from front compressor Tee's off into large air dryer line. What do I need to rule out? Could the whole air dryer have gone bad? It has been sitting with no air pressure for about a month.

There are a lot of different ways of keeping the coach plugged in, and keeping both the chassis and house batteries charged. 

Newell equipped many of the coaches with an echo charger or trickle charger that takes power from the house batteries and maintains the coach batteries. 

Some leave the batteries merged so that the inverter/charger keeps the chassis batteries up. 

Sounds good, but in my case I noticed that my chassis batteries would stay charged while in storage but not really up to full charge. It took a while to sort it out, but this is what I think. I float the lithiums during the winter at 13.4. That’s lower than what I keep them while using the coach, but this is one of my strategies for battery longevity. The problem is the echo charger only charges the chassis batteries around 0.2 volts lower than the house batteries. So my chassis batteries would see 13 to 13. 2 over the winter. 

Since I am plugged in, and cheap, I chose to go the financially efficient way. I installed this maintainer on the chassis batteries. https://www.amazon.com/NOCO-GENIUS10-Ful...mREALw_wcB

It’s a NOCO Genius 10 amp maintainer. I hardwired to the parallel starting batteries and mounted the unit on the forward firewall. It is not intended to rescue a dead battery but keep the ones I have fully charged. I have been using this setup all winter. I am happy to report that the engines spins up quickly whereas when the chassis batteries were on the trickle charger, it would be a lazy start.
