Well we put about 5k miles on this used 8.3 it was using some oil and had some blowby so out it came.
Ordered a complete overhaul kit with pistons, liners, bearings etc. Sent the rad in for a recore, injector pump sent in for a possible rebuild and found a new turbo. The head is also in for a cleaning and inspection. Should be back together in a week or so. Total cost somewhere around 6k. No bad!! Cant wait!!Big Grin

With the rally just a couple of months away, I would suggest putting a rally banner on the web site like was done for Spearfish. Then any one coming to the web site are made aware of the upcoming rally and the dates.

Have my bus out of storage and everything looks ok, but cannot open refrigerator. Checked circuit breakers ok. Can't hear the switch when I move to open. Is this electrical or vacuum?

Elaine and I were heading back to Bluff, UT after a wonderful afternoon of site seeing when we decided, on a whim, to turn on to a road labeled "Gooseneck State Park". Had never heard of it, and had no idea what we were going to find at the end this short 4 mile detour. Well, we found Edwin and Lydia from Holland in their 2004 42' Newell, 2 slide, steering tag coach. He has been cruising our site for a while without registering, but I think I convinced him to join after talking with he and his wife for about an hour. They live in Holland, but fly to the USA every three months and travel in their Newell.....3 months in, and 3 months out. They leave the Newell at Newell in Miami when they are in Holland.

They are both the sweetest people, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with them. Once again I have to say you meet the nicest people in a Newell!

Their view of the canyon is spectacular. This place is free, but limited to 14 days. They prefer dry camping. Edwin had AM Solar install 1,000 watts of solar panels on his roof, and he as been able to isolate most of his systems they do not draw continuously....only when he wants them to.

He has an on going problem with his Atlas radiator springing leaks. Newell has been covering all the issue under warranty, but it is a perplexing problem as to why the core keeps springing leaks. Newell has replaced the radiator three, or four times, but still the problems continue to crop up. Hopefully he will join the site, and some of you can offer some solutions.

Hi all,

We have a 2000 Model coach for sale on our lot. While we typically deal in MCI's, Prevost, and the like, we occasionally get a Newell in as well. I'm a newbie, as you can see, and am enjoying reading the forums learning about these vehicles.

It's a double slide coach that is in excellent condition. Current list price is $225,000, though like all things that is negotiable.

Here is the full listing.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, [email protected].

Thanks!

Motor Homes of Texas just got in an 03. Two slides rear closet. Has a lot of tile on floor. It is very clean. All I know as of now.
Forest the owner of this coach owned your 98. He now has an 06.
