I need to replace the two windscreens on our Newell (1970)<br />
I am  looking for the original rubber to insert the windshields (the width of the rubber is 1 inch ) Since I live in the Netherlands, these are not available here, and perhaps one of you knows where I could get them (see photo).<br />
I would be very grateful to you for your help.<br />

<br />
I was wondering if anyone had any pics or any idea of where the heater hoses hook up to the engine on a 6V92TA Coach.  Someone basically just deleted the heater hoses all together out of mine and there are lots of plugs in the radiator as well as what I assume is the thermostat housing.  Not sure where the thermostat is on it either so figured I would see if anyone had any experience or pics.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

i was running some wires for my new camera in the rear engine area above the hydraulic tank and must have bumped the 6 inch sight tube on the outside.  it is the original and i am sure is brittle<br />
<br />
it is 1/4 od just like a 1/4 inch dot air line.  it uses compression fittings on the clear tube.  it is slowly dripping on the bottom fitting.  <br />
<br />
so....it you have replace it what did you use.  i am looking on amazon for it and rigid acrylic tubing is a choice.  <br />

			<description><![CDATA[My stairs seem to be intermittently "stuck" over the last year. I have used all types of lubricant and also having techs look at them. They'll be in the down position for a short period and for long periods and then one day, they'll retract and operate until left out for an extended time. No consistent pattern that I otherwise have noticed.<br />
<br />
Any inputs welcomed.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Our awning has never retracted it always went out but the motor hummed when trying to retract so we decided to replace the motor and found they are really expensive so I found one on ebay that had the same amount of torque for &#36;400 but it didn't have the manual gear to manually extend and retract so i thought what the heck I'll order the ebay unit and swap heads out which was a great idea I thought well after removing the head and pulling the assembly apart I seen right of the bat what the problem was, it was the capacitor that had failed not the motor at all. So rather than make the swap of the motor I just changed out the capacitor and it works great, so with all this writing don't do what I did and spend money before you research the problem. Now I have a new spare motor. <br />
<br />
You can see from the picture how the capacitor popped the top out.<br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment -->

			<description><![CDATA[The Bode door has Strip Brush covering the openings which the door arms pass through to keep bugs out.  Mine was worn out so Newell gave me some to replace it.  Six months later and the new strip brush filament is also bent over leaving a gap a humming bird could pass through.  Has anyone come up with a solution other than keeping the door closed?  We have a screen door but it just funnels the bugs to the gap in the strip brush.<!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment -->
