Billl Johnson, Rudy Leggett and myself are at Bella Terra RV Resort in Foley, AL.  Any other Gurus in the area come join us or come by and say HI.  I will be here thru May 18th. 

on the way to meet me at the factory last night my wife and a feline met each other. Broke the lower air dam on the hammer. The cat didn't fare quite so well. 

My front brake rotors needed turned and I need new pads.  Having the rotors turned was no problem, but the new pads are giving us fits.  Its seems the pads are odd ball and hard to find. Frightliner ordered a set yesterday and the box came in damaged and with parts missing.  So they were reordered and came in today, but pads were too short.  So the parts dept. is trying to find somewhere in the USA that has the correct parts. Has anyone ever had this problem finding front brake pad for a 99 Newell?  Does anyone know where one might buy pads to fit.  

They needed the bay my coach was in so they have put the wheels back on and are putting the coach on the lot until parts found.  I told them to turn off the 120 comp. and turn on the 12 volt comp. and run the generator for 2 or 3 hours a day.  I hope this will work.  My coach is in Tyler, TX, about 100 miles N. of where I live. They had called Newell about the parts and the owner of the shop said that was a long story and he did not want to go into it.  And I am really stressed.

I was at Newells about a week ago and told them I was having problem when I braked hard the steering wheel would shimmy.  They pulled the tires and said all looked fine.  I showed them when I turned the hub that there was a little wobble in the rotor.  They said they had no way to turn the rotors. I said well OK.

Any help would certainly be appreciated.

About 3 weeks ago my wife wanted to turn the radio on, but nothing. Really didn't give it a thought, until I went to start the coach Saturday and the engine batteries were dead. Flipped battery merge on and a couple days later got ready to start the coach and just happened to check the radio - which is now powered. 

My question is, what else "in" the coach is powered off of the engine buss that hot even when the key is off?

Hi all, my name is David and I am new to the technical aspects of luxury coaches. I have a 1990 Newell Coach, with 57000 miles, which has long since been "forgotten", a term that is thrown around loosely as the coach is sort of defunct, the diesel generator up front has stopped producing electricity but it does run the same as when it was bought. The rear camera has also failed, playing noise but only showing a fuzzy screen. The plumbing, heating and air are fine as well as electrical. I am trying my hardest to revive this coach, as my family allowed it to sit so long without the proper maintenance. Tomorrow I will be taking better photos of the engine, generator, interior and exterior to follow up with this post. I am also an active member on the Ford Raptor forum in the case that any coach owners here also have one, I go by PermianRaptor on there as well. My prior experience with forums has lead me to seek one like this as the local shops are not a help at all. Many thanks in advance, photos of the coach are attached.

hi all,

now that i have my newell home again, it is time to fix a few things.  

i have a coolant leak under the dash and it is not the aquahot.  

it is not obvious to see but i know it is there for several reasons....i have seen it drip under the front cap, i can smell it in the drivers seat and there is spotting on the carpet right at the center of the dash console that juts out.  

in the past i have tightened the coolant line clamps that i can reach under the dash to no avail.  

it is leaking enough now to cause have the coolant level drop in the plastic tank in the back.  

this all started on our trip home from canada the last time we used it.  (yea, too long ago i know )

i thought i would be smart and turn off the valves at the engine in the valve block that goes to the heater core up front....but the valve packing was old and leaked terribly when the valve was shut.  and the valve is in the center of the block so not easy to change.  

i really dont care about a dash heater as we dont really go where it is cold and the aquahot has heaters right at the feet of the driver and passenger and has 2 lines that run to the dash defroster.  

so i think i will just cap them off and see what happens.  

do any of you know if the 2 hoses that go to and from the heater core at the back of the coach go anywhere else?

there are 2 more for the aquahot.

NOT! had a major thunderstorm pass through today which knocked out power all day for most of south Louisiana.  We did fine, wished I still had the Newell, the generator would have been nice.
