Yes, the diesel engine up front is the generator. There should be a generator Start/Stop switch near the drivers seat and potentially a second switch in the bedroom. Not sure about the '84 models but most Newells use 8D batteries which are 12 volt. It is possible to add battery cables and use 6V golf cart batteries. The air bags are filled by the engine driven air compressor. You also likely have a 120V AC air compressor to use when the engine is not running.
