Good morning, i own coach 1403 a 2010 model , it has a 2008 Cat c-15 625 HP Acert engine. My Question is, more and more truckstops are switching over to Bio diesel, has anyone heard if its ok to burn this diesel with this engine? any comments would be appreciated.

I thought i was low on fuel in my main tank and I had sucked air. It was warm out and I was running the for the air conditioners.  It was running and I was down to about 15% on my fuel tank.  I slid in all slides and refueled.

1) is the fuel pick up for the gen set higher than the engine ?
I have known this to be at 25% on earlier motor homes 

Now full, it ran fine. I even changed the filters, and added gauges to see pressure at the pump and suction prior to my new Racor filter. 

The next trip, again now at more than 1/2 the tank full, it slowed and stalled again. After my wife came and found me and told me it stopped, I went back to try and restart it. I went through 3 start cycles, while I held the prime switch on and it tried but wouldn't start. I decided to bleed all injector lines and hold the prime switch and after 3 start cycles it still didn't start. The next start cycle it started to get fuel and after closing each (and making a mess) it started.  If I hold the prime switch on when it slows, it will regain RPM and continue to run.  I have power to my fuel pump at all times, as measured with a continuity light, while its stalling showing 5 PSI just prior to the injection pump. 

2) is 5 psi enough ?
3) am I over riding the electric shut off switch by holing the prime switch on ?

Is my electric switch at the injection pump failing ? It looks newish by a previous owner.

Is this an electrical problem ? I once thought it was a fuel delivery problem

Your thoughts are appreciated

While waxing the coach a couple weeks ago, I decided  to clean up the clear plastic cover on the camera and flex seal it.  I also sealed around the camera as it was open on the edges and the camera was flexing in the opening.  I have since had 2 blown 5 amp fuses.  Is this merely a coincidence or is this going to involve some serious trouble shooting?  Any ideas on what direction I should take?  Thanks guys!

Information will be coming to Newell's website soon.

   

   

   

just picked up the slide cart i had made.  it is very similar to the one newell has in their shop.  only a bit more useable for me.  

in the picture it is in its pushed together position.  meaning, the two ends pull apart and it is about 2 foot longer for use on a long slide.  

i had it made so it would push together so i can use it as a workbench as well.  it is super heavy and could hold up a small house....like a newell

a few things need to be done to it yet.  waiting for a few more long bolts, the crane jacks need to be rotated 180 degrees, and i need to put 3/4 inch plywood with carpet on top of the two platforms, and make a double 3/4" platform that goes in the middle to make it into a workbench...

the one newell has required the coach to be raised up so it will fit under the slide.  mine is lower so does not require that.  

it is pretty trick the way it works.  each platform can pivot so as to make sure it is flat on the bottom of the slide.  you can see the pivots at the top and on one side on the bottom.  

it will jack up enough to do raised floor slides as well as they are about 6-8" higher off the ground than flat floor slides.  

in november i will change out my slide seals and see how it works.

Hi guys, and gals, thanks in advance for the assistance, 1993 8v92 will not go over about 10mph, I have a Detroit computer with a 6 pin round connector, the coach has a rectangular connector, does anyone have the pin layout for me to install the round 6 pin?? Sub question do these have the code flash feature installed??

New member here, thanks for add. 1993 coach 317 purchased for my parents, I will be responsible for maintenance.

It was cold last night and we are unhooked. It was the first time using the Aquahot since it was serviced at Newell. At some point, I think this morning, it started to produce less heat and it was billowing smoking out of the exhaust. It looks like an over fuel or an under air problem. Wanted to ask here for advice before piling in to take it apart as I've never stripped one before.
