Forum: Help, I need help ASAP
- Replies (10)

I’m needing some advice on a 1989 8v92 in a Newell Bus, I drove it about 700 miles Saturday with no problems at all, the generator(complete separate unit from the bus),  had quit so I was working on it in the driveway, I did nothing with the bus at all other than move it from the storage area to the shop.....all was fine, when I went to put it up last night the bus had very low power and was slow to build rpm....it will build to max, but very slow and it also has always busted off without hesitation, but now it has to crank a few seconds and you have to give it some throttle to get it started, and when it does start it’s putting out a little black smoke, not bad except on initial startup.......so far I’ve changed both fuel filters, drained the separators and pulled the air filter, I’ve been told by locals that it’s the emergency shutoff valve, but I don’t see one...with the ecm, I’m thinking it don’t have one......any help would be greatly appreciated as it’s scheduled to go out again Friday.

I saw that nada doesn't even list Newells (not that nada is generally correct when it comes to rv's anyway).  What can I expect to get for $100k?  $125k?  I want slides, so if this dollar amount can't get me in a Newell.. I'll just have to settle for some other brand (Newmar and Travel Supreme are on my radar.. but dang Newell's are nice).

Well, here we go again. My basement air control board is giving me fits. seems the 115v ac connections are broken and I'm getting ready to take the board out, again. Got to strengthen the connection points.

I JUST LOVE THIS S@#T.

Fellow Newell owners, I've located a business that can remake the plastic trim panel that wraps around the upper portion
of the console between the driver and passenger. On our 1991 # 297, it is about 8" or so high and somewhere around 30" to wrap around the
console.

On ours, this panel is glued to backing panels. Let me know if you need this plastic engraved, trimmed panel.

Best wishes,
Danny

WOW!!!!!!!!!!  We overwhelmed the resort staff with 16 Newells coming in today.  Many old Newell friends and now many new Newell friends.  We are letting everyone get settled in.  Tomorrow at 5pm we are having a Happy Hour get together at site #349.  I have set up a for sale table for anything anyone desires to sell.  I have also set up a free table of used, but good parts that will serve someone a good spare.  Our first seminar will be a question, answer get together addressing any subject.  We will meet in the clubhouse at 9 am on Friday morning.

Thanks to Bob's generosity, I was able to purchase his heart and soul (meaning he has put much time and effort into getting her to where she is today).  I live in the small town of Galion, Ohio with my lovely wife Missy, Sister and Mother.  Originally from Minnesota, I joined the Navy in 1987 and retired from service in 2008.  Eventually, we will be early retiring and traveling across the country in our 1972.

Good morning!

Last week we brought our new coach #744 home from The factory in Miami. Newell kindly took our two coaches in on trade for 744 and had been working a few items but now it’s time to put it to work. I appreciate Richard and Tom for answering questions we’ve had as we worked through the purchase process of 639 and 744.

Kristi and I are very excited to hit the road. Our first big trip will be in September/October so I have some time to get it set up. 

I’ve got my “Top Ten” list started and will post updates as I make process. 

I’ll post more pics when we bring it home from storage this weekend and get it ready to go. JK

My coach is pre air door & has a hinge. The door had started to creak, squeak & groan.  I sprayed some silicone spray down from the top and then sprayed every other hinge opening.  Cleaned up the painted area around the hinge with Wash, Wax All and now the door opens with no noise.
