Q
1710 9/5/2005 5:06:06 AM 9/5/2005 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com black exhaust A few more details would be helpful to get good responses specific to your situation.

For example,

What is the year and engine model of your Newell?
Exhaust emissions rules have changed through the years, and different years and different models of engines have different "normal" smoke characteristics.

When do you see black exhaust? Mostly just initial acceleration from idle? During full throttle acceleration on the highway? All of the time?
Typically, black exhuast indicates that the engine is receiving more fuel than it can thoroughly burn. Excess fuel produces black smoke indicating less than complete combustion. Some engines normally produce some smoke on acceleration and during "full throttle" pulls on the highway. In other engine models and years, black smoke is indicative of an incorrect adjustment or wear.

Better advice would be possible with some additional information. That having been said, you most certainly would benefit from a thorough inspection of your engine by a qualified, factory-trained diesel mechanic. We suggest considering the service department of a conveniently located distributor for the engine brand installed in your coach.

1714 9/7/2005 7:32:55 PM 9/17/2005 Joyce D'Hondt kayakusa@yahoo.com black exhaust Yes I will have it looked at. I guess it is use to doing it when started due to some cup of fuel used in starting and acceleration ... 1985 Detroit with 143,000 miles.
8V92TA.
Thanks for the reply.

1715 9/8/2005 1:53:32 PM 9/17/2005 Thomas St. Clair stctom@yahoo.com Big Caterpillar emissions Is the new big Caterpillar compliant with the impending 2007 emissions already? Also, how does the maintenance of the the 10 speed ZF compare with the allison 4000 series? That is, are the intervals for oil changes and adjustments comparable, or is this still to be determined?

Q
1719 9/12/2005 8:16:46 AM 9/17/2005 Robert Eichner bobe4933@gmail.com Responding to "For Sale" Postings I have questions regarding a 1991 Newell that is 41 feet 6". They are asking $125,000 for it and it has a Detroit 500 hp engine. I am concerned about major expenses if I purchase this coach as opposed to buying a new Country Couch Inspire. The coach has 110,000 mi on it and was originally sold to James Boyd.

What can you tell me about the price and the coach?

1724 9/17/2005 8:49:32 AM 9/17/2005 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com Air Conditioning A critical factor in a properly designed central air system is the ductwork. The incorporation of multiple slide-outs greatly interfers with a proper layout for the supply air ducts in the side walls of the coach. A good supply air duct system is all but impossible in a four-slide coach. Since the majority of orders for new Newells specifiy four slide-outs, roof air conditioners has become the system of choice. The tranisition to roof a/c's was aided by the new roof designs that all but hide the a/c's from sight.

1725 9/17/2005 8:55:57 AM 9/17/2005 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com Big Caterpillar emissions The current Caterpillar C15 will not meet 2007 regulations. The emission control system of the C15 will be upgraded to meet the revised regulations. It will be a year or so before the full details are available. However, we have been told that the horsepower and torque ratings will not be reduced.
