hi all,

i have quite a few of the small inverters that powered the 12" and 18" flourescent bulbs that were in my 1990 ceiling fixtures. they take 12v and turn it into 110v for the tubes. each fixture had one inside it. they have the bulb holders still attached to them yet.

they all worked when i took them out and converted the fixtures to totally LED's.

i gave a bunch to dean and if someone doesnt want them i am going to throw them away soon. first come first serve.

they are free you just have to pay whatever it costs me to ship them.

Many of you enjoy a trip to the "mother ship" in Miami, OK. A visit to the factory can be fun, educational and an opportunity to meet fellow Newell owners. This morning I took a time-lapse movie of the service department waking up.

Enjoy!

thought i would welcome the addition of two new Guru Super Moderators.

Clarke and Forest. both graciously accepted to help look over the site and make sure none of you hooligans get out of line.

yea, i did modify the titles a little, the power is going to my head.

please tell anyone you want about our site. it doesnt even show up on google search yet. and we are too cheap to pay for showing up.

our son scott has been really the one doing the hard work so hats off to Scott. (he is an electrical engineer and a Lt in the USAF)

in addition michael has been willing to be tricked into being one of the site admins. such great power he never imagined. along with darlene, scott and I.

thanks to all of you for being so supportive. other than scott and michael, the rest of us dont know what we are doing...

tom and darlene

Don't know if this is something in the forum software or my browser (Firefox 13.0.1) but when I click on a thumbnail picture in someones post it opens in a new tab. Is there a way to have it open in the same tab?

Since I bought my 2002 I have been keeping my precious 1990 in storage.

I have been so busy getting the 2002 fixed up I have not gotten the 1990 ready for sale.

I will add more later, but I have redone, or replaced a ton of things including a complete interior restoration. HDTV's, new coach systems, and been through i think every system in the coach. many of the people on the forum have been inside it and know what i have done. there are pictures and an exhaustive journey of what i did to her at the newellclassic forum. if you look in the gallery there (i will post them on this gallery as well) you can see the pictures.

currently all is well with it other than it needs a good exterior polishing and she will shine like new. i will add more as to what has been done as i get time.

the Price is fair and if you contact me i can tell you more.

yea, i know, i am not much of a salesman.

but if you see her, you will fall in love. Drives and rides like a big caddy and is much more nimble than my 45' tag 2002. the 90 is a single rear axle.

as i was showing my 90 coach to a fellow site member on saturday i was telling him all the things i had done to the 90. i replaced all 4 electric element heaters. the one under the bed, in the bathroom, in the wet bay and the long narrow one under the couch along with putting in new thermostats.

what i found when i replaced them is that most of them had been overheated somehow and the elements inside were glowing red hot and were melted partially in spots.

when you install them you can pick what heating wattage they will put out by changing some internal wiring.

if you change one make sure you wire it up to consume the same wattage as the old one.

just keep an eye out on them.

I bought mine at Harbor Freight. It has a 3" screen that is detachable and a 3 foot wand. Invaluable tool for looking in places that you really can't get into. I use this to look under slideouts to make sure there is no trash from the factory that would mess up new flooring.

Not really a campground but I do have 5- 50 amps and one 30 amp hookup with lots of room at our place in Weatherford. I'm just west of Ft Worth and north of I-20 about 4 miles. Have a dump station, also.

I wasn't able to download the manual pdf for the electric steps that were used on Newells from the 90s to about 2003, because the file was too big. So here is the link to the web site that has info on parts and troubleshooting.

I would like to verify if I am using my dump valves correctly. There is an air valve on both sides of the coach that empties into the drain hose. In addition the is another valve which seems to be connected to the main tank. On my 2001 coach, this manual valve has been replaced with an air valve. I assume if I want grey and black water to mix into one tank for dumping, I leave this tank valve open. If I want to accumulate the black water in one tank, and grey in another, I should leave this valve closed. Is this correct and is it practical to accumulate the black water in one tank and save the grey water to flush out the sewer hose?
