I have a musical horn in my unit that plays 99 tunes ,I don't have the manual to explain what they are. Maybe this is some oddball aftermarket thing and no one has one ? I don't think the neighborhood would tolerate me going through all the tunes and writing them down , unlikely I would recognize them anyway !

we live in a rural area and there is a weekly flea market in the town center every weekend. it is the real kind of flea market.

i bought these things there last weekend. will make a great addition to the shop.

i actually bought 2 gas pumps, but sold one right away to a friend.

the dials and gears are the mechanical computer for the gas pump. i have started taking things apart to get them working again.

btw, the old gas pumps and fire hydrants are cast iron. they are really heavy.

the stop light is really big.

We were headed to Stillwater yesterday when I saw the coolant temperature rising quickly. I had to pull over on the Interstate. CoachNet sent a tow truck that took us to Joplin Freightliner. Unfortunately they were not able to take care of the problem, so today CoachNet towed us to Cabin Diesel. Some of you may recognize that name as the place Newell sends engine problems. We're in the little campgound there for the weekend until they can get us in, so I called Newell to see about a factory tour. They said to come on over, so we did. Very impressive!

There were quite a few coaches in Camp Newell, but I didn't see anyone outside. The salesman, Bill (?) took us in the oldest coach they had for sale (my suggestion) so we could compare old to new.

Elaine and I are going to be replacing our original Flexsteel seats in the coach, and it occurred to me that some of our Newell Guru friends may have switched theirs out in the past few years. We're not necessarily looking for brand new......just newer than 32 years old, and maybe leather. Ours are still is decent condition, but they are cloth, and are hard to keep clean. If you have changed yours out and still have the ones you took out, and they are in good condition we may be interested in buying them from you. Pictures would be appreciated.

I'm still trying to figure out a lot of things on my coach , would any one have a picture or know what the drivers seat buttons and switches are supposed to do . Some of them don't do anything! It is a 1987 newell#146 ,the left side controls work fine on the right it has six buttons, as follows a rocker switch then 3 blue buttons and 2 more rocker switches. Thanks Don

Just spent an hour on the phone with Rudy., we were unable to solve the issue, I'm going to Newell Monday. Anyone want to help me trouble shoot?

All the aquahot heater fans come on in the coach and blow cold air..the 3 pumps appear to vibrate when the fans are on. The temp is 200 and the tank is full but no fluid is circulating through any of the three pumps.

The overflow tube had broke has been repaired. Hot water lasts only about 5 mins before it runs out.

Who wants to help guess the problem?

Don't know the condition of this coach but the price is interesting for a 2005. It is one of the last 3 Newells before the change to the 2000i body style.
