hi all,

i want to be able to take a tire off the newell.

i think it has 1" lugnuts (i just didnt go check tonite).

i have an aircat 1/2" impact wrench. which some of you say will work.

will it work off the airpressure in the coach?

i dont have large volume compressor at home.

and....what is the best thing to get to torque them back down?

i dont want to spend 500 bucks on a torque multiplier.

Somebody was looking for Newell with a budget of $50,000. This coach may fit the bill. Only has 110,000 miles. Lot of life left in it!

I am thinking about heading up to Connecticut in the coach to pick up a new motorcycle for my brother. The route would take me from Alabama up the east coast through the Carolinas, Virginia, and New York.

I have heard that the Blueridge Parkway would be a nice way to go, but am worried about the tunnel heights along the road.

Has anyone driven their coach along the parkway? Alternate routes?

Thanks!

This is a nice coach that didn't sell when it was priced at $164,000. So now they have it on ebay with a "buy it now" price of $259,000. Amazing!!!!!!!!!

hi all,

i had a couple of different threads on here about coolant leaks i have fixed. the big one being at the engine coolant hoses. i dont appear to have any leaks in the engine area now.

we arrived at our daughters yesterday and parked in front of her house. after a few hours there was a spot on the ground about 10" in diameter of coolant just under the nose of the coach just to the passenger side of the drivers side headlights.

so like suspected, there is a leak under the dash somewhere. i never once turned the heater core on during the drive, so i hope the leak is before the heater core, assumming the isolation valve that the dash control works is working. but, it must be because i ran the air conditioning and it worked on the dash.

so a nice winter project for me. i will figure it out. this next week after getting things settled at home i will take the top of the dash off and have a look. maybe i will get lucky, who knows.

so, a few questions.

1. has anyone removed the dash on one of my vintage to get at the heater core? if so, let me know so i can call you and you cant talk me through it.

2. just in case, do any of you have the part number for the heater core itself? or any information about it?

we will head to our house this afternoon, ending our 120 day trip in the newell.

so, let me know if you have any info about the dash heater.

thanks

tom

howdy,

my series 60 has this on the side of the head accessible from the passenger side engine bay.

it is a Detroit Diesel Pro Check 2351544

it has lines in and out of it. fuel lines

only thing i found about it was something about it being an airbleed. when i talked to newell they didnt know what it was.

any knowledge here on this?

howdy,

does anyone know if the chrome package on the series 60 was a newell option or a standard feature?

i have seen it listed as an option, but yet i have never seen one without it.
