Gang,

I have the same brownish marble floors that are common to Newell coaches. Mine have really dulled over time. There are a few places that are still shiny (where I dont walk).

I have tried buffing compounds from the auto parts store. No improvement. I also tried 300 wet/dry sandpaper on a small spot. No improvement or change. I also tried the stuff that they use to clean plastic headlights.

Anyway, has anyone found a good way to restore the marble floors?

Cheers,
bill

ps. I also wanna buff out the scratches in my corian countertops but have not tried anything yet.

Gang,

I am at Newell and last night my heat did not work. It was 35F outside and the best I could do inside was 62F. Brrrrr. (I know some of you live in cold places where 62F is short sleeve weather). Today is Friday, so Newell is not working.

Anyway...here were the symptoms. 1) None of the heaters in the bus that run off of the AC thermostats were working. The whisper fans did not run and there was no heat. In my coach there are whisper heaters by the driver and passenger, under the galley sink and under the bed. All of them were kaput / nada. 2) The aquahot said that it was at 187F so I had heat if I could make it go to where it could do some good. 3) In my closet and bathroom are whisper heaters controlled by their own thermostats. These were working. 4) My electric heater (under my salon desk) was working.

Here is the fix. Dwight, a fantastic Newell tech, told me to look in the third fuse slot (third in from outside Right to Left) of the aquahot unit. There was a 10A fuse there. It was blown. He had me replace it with a 15A fuse and all was good with the world.

Dwight said that the "Teddy" heater that is located deep in the AC plenum was probably frozen up and blew the fuse. (There is a fairly simple fix to disconnect the "Teddy" heater but that is for another post).

Anyway replacing the fuse got everything going again. Yay. I wanted to do this post in case someone else wakes up with an icicle on their nose.

Cheers,
bill

I am here in Quartzsite and went to the rv show where I saw some fuel additive called Super 21, a German product. I am wondering if anyone has herd of this product.
Tom,might be good to have a category for main engine or did miss it reading from my smart phone.

Since we are now fulltiming we have to decide between Dishnetwork local channels and calling each time we enter a different spotbeam area, or signing up and paying for distant networks through All America Direct.
Our plans are to travel into new areas every month or so, so could have to call and change the local channels every day or two until we settle in for a month.
Anybody doing this now?
Opinions?
Thanks

Fixed an air leak I was aware of. Aired up the coach to check the fix. Old leak was now air tight. 110V compressor cycled every 15 minutes so I knew I had more leak(s). I opened the door to the AquaHot bay & I could immediately hear a leak using my ultrasonic leak detector. Leak was located on one of the air hose fittings for the air dump valve. Fixed it. Ran the 110V compressor again and it still cycles every 30 minutes which is unacceptable to me. Me & my ultrasonic leak detector will be on a mission again.

When we were visiting Tom and Darlene last February Darlene made a few custom Newell patches for Elaine and I. Almost one year later we are putting them to use. The first one is now on my hat, and a second is going on a Nike windbreaker. Very, very cool......and I know ya'll are going to be jealous now, but Darlene might be talked into a few more.

And now the jacket.....

Well now, coach would not warm up this morning, so I discovered thet there was no heat coming from the Aqua Hot vents... The rinky dink heat exchanger's motor had frozen up. I checked on their site, and a new one only costs 529.00 for one that is made out of plastic. I guess I may as well bite the bullet, and replace the whole assembly. One of the blower wheels is broke, so by the time I buy a motor and fans, I should get the complete assembly. I hope my Newell stops causing headaches for me...

I thought this catalog might be helpful to anyone who is dealing with air leaks or wants to replumb something, like an air compressor.

My Tire Monitoring system died on me, and Newell told me that it would cost a fortune to repair it. They suggested that I get a system that uses the valve stem sending units. Could anyone steer me to a good reliable system?
