Hi. My wife and I are the new owners of a 1983 Newell, that I refer to it as "the project". It has a Cummins VT903 rated at 320hp and a 5 spd transmission. The overall condition is fair for its age and will never be a museum piece, but thats ok. I am very much a hands on doer which means I may have a lot of questions making this site priceless. It already seems to be a challenge finding parts (clearance light gaskets, window felting/slider wipes/glazing, rebuild kit for the Conmet fuel water seperator..... just to name a few) but all part of the fun. I have seen a thread on here tracking the coach numbers. I have yet to find it but will post it when/if I do. A big Thank you to all who maintain and contribute to this site, I am sure to be here often.

Coach will not start. It is cold (-5C) tried to start & turned over very slowly. Batteries had drained overnight.
Had tow service try to boost after charging for 4 hours & block heater on. Now doesn't even turn over.
Waited for batteries to fully charge, 4 hours later, still won't turn over.
Is there a fuse I could have blown?
This is a 1987 8V92 non DD.
Thanx for any help.

All,
How quickly should it take for the Jake Brake to engage after removing foot from the accelerator? Test drove an 07 and liked the ride, drive, and handling. Did not have to make in any steering adjustments. This was a pleasure to drive. The Jake Brake was turned on and set to high, but it seemed that it took several seconds before it would engage. Is this normal? I had to use the regular brakes to slow down. Thanks for any and all input.

Reese

I am wanting to remove the old Intec monitor from the dash so I can install a new one in it's place.  I cannot seem to figure out how it is mounted and have no paperwork.  Not wanting to disrupt something under there, wondered if perhaps one of you may have been through this and can offer some clue.  

Also, Does anyone have a replacement that they recommend. Thnx   Pete

We have spent the last 4 days at Everglades Isle RV park. We have thoroughly enjoyed it and the hospitality from manager Bill exceptional. Plenty to do with air boat, swamp bugs, hiking, nature drives, etc. the park is very well maintained and has plenty to do onsite, with boat docks, fishing, pool, club house and even a movie theater. Only 3 times to note:
1. If you are towing as soon as you cross the bridge into Everglades City, pull off on pavement on side of the road to disconnect. Otherwise, you will be blocking traffic while you wait for them to open the gate. Ask me how I know this...
2. Air boats run from 9am to 5pm. Our site over looked the river and we watched the boats all day long. Inside your coach you don't hear the noise, but outside, they might annoy you. I rather enjoyed watching the action.
3. They are only open Oct 1st to May 1st. Bill told us it is too hot and buggy during off season. BTW: we did NOT have a problem with bugs during our stay.
Nice place to stay while seeing the Everglades.
