1860 12/15/2005 7:11:44 AM 12/15/2005 chuck ulinski cau35@aol.com Paint A message from Newell Service states: "typical of two-stage paints, the paint does not have the chip resistance of Newell's standard clear coated single-stage Imron." Is this the paint system that I have on my '85 Newell?

Q
1861 12/15/2005 11:00:55 AM 12/15/2005 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com Paint The 1985 Newels were originally painted with single stage DuPont Imron without clear coat. In the mid to late 1990s, the Imron finish typically was clear coated. Beginning with late 2002 models, new Newells have been painted with a base coat/clear coat system. The base coat/clear coat system provides a smoother finish with a "wet look," and can be spot repaired. It is not as resistent to chipping as single stage paint, so Newell installs a paint protectant shield on the front.

1862 12/15/2005 1:58:25 PM 12/16/2005 chuck ulinski cau35@aol.com Paint My '85 Newell looks like a clear coat is separating from the color. The drivers side was re-done recently, as told by the prior owner Leroy Johnson. He said that it was fine sanded and clear coat reapplied -- it looks great but the front and the curb side looks like a "clear coat" is peeling. I'm unsure how that reckons with the TechTalk Staff message that: "The 1985 Newels were originally painted with single stage DuPont Imron without clear coat."

Q
1865 12/17/2005 10:54:53 AM 12/17/2005 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com zf suspension Coaches 671, 681, and 685 were the first Newells to utilize ZF
suspension while the prior suspension system was used in other units built at this time. Then all Newells starting with 722 were built with ZF suspension. To date, we have completed about 75 coaches with ZF suspension. It provides an excellent ride, very stable handling characteristics, and with the steering tag axle, a very short turning radius, about 37 feet on a 45-foot coach.

1869 12/20/2005 3:47:31 PM 12/21/2005 Rich Farr toptin@cox.net Inline Air filter Our 1979 Newell has a B11-218-M3LA inline air filter/dryer device that feeds the suspension/leveling system. It looks kind of old and can't tell if it is a regulator or just a dryer. Are these (or upgraded) still available? Any info appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Q
1870 12/21/2005 4:59:35 AM 12/21/2005 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com Paint The cost can vary greatly. The variables include the complexity of the paint design, the number of colors, whether it is a duplicate of what is already on the coach, which sometimes can be done without stripping the old paint, or a new design, which normally requires stripping, etc. Further, most coaches over ten years old require at least some body repair when repainting. To get the best results, the Newell factory paint department normally strips a coach to bare metal and repaints using the newer base coat/clear coat system instead of the older single stage paint. In most cases, the customer elects to repaint using a design typical of our current new coaches rather than applying a design from an older era. A repaint including selection of a current design, stripping the coach, and using four colors is approximately $29,000, with the caveat that there are often extra cost add-ons requested to the work. The Newell paint department is often booked up weeks in advance, so we are in the process of completing an additional state-of-the-art paint booth to offer more customers factory fresh repaints. Anyone wishing to consider a new paint job from the Newell paint department can discuss the particulars including estimated cost with the department manager, Jerry Allen, at 1-888-3NEWELL.

1874 12/23/2005 2:04:24 PM 12/24/2005 Ken White admin@LuxuryCoachLifestyle.com Newell Classic Forum is Up! I wanted to update everone that has expressed interest to me about having another way to exchange ideas on Newell ownership. We have added a forum just for Newell owners and prospective owners to the Newell Classic website. There have been some additional improvements made to the website as well. Everyone is welcome to come over and exchange ideas at www.LuxuryCoachLifestyle.com as an alternative to flooding the wonderful tech board offered here by Newell Coach. What other Newell owners and I have discussed is a way for all of us Newell people to trade information that will help improve anything and everything regarding the life owning a Newell Coach. I am here to work with everyone interested in Newell motor homes and anything pertaining to them. Anyone interested in helping out, just let me know. This is the chance to clear up some of the many questions that we all may have about the Newell lifestyle. I know I have dozens of questions that I want answered and have a lot I love to share about to make Newell ownership that much better. This interaction is for all years of Newell ownership.

Q
1878 12/31/2005 5:49:18 AM 12/31/2005 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com air pocket doors Your coach is equipped with three air compressors: 1) an engine-driven compressor that services the entire system anytime the engine is running, 2) a 110-volt compressor that services the entire system when the engine is not running, from electric power supplied by the shore cord or generator, or from the inverter when a 110-volt source is not available, and 3) a 12-volt air compressor that supplies the toilet and certain other selected other small accessories when sources 1) or 2) above are not functioning. From your description, it appears that for some reason the 110-volt air compressor is not supplying air as designed. In short, it appears your 110-volt air compressor system needs to be repaired.

1880 12/31/2005 9:38:59 AM 12/31/2005 TechTalk Staff TechTalk@newellcoach.com air pocket doors The quick answer to when the 110-volt compressor was connected to an inverted circuit is sometime between 1994 and now, but we'll check our records and see if we can identify the date. The reason some air powered items do not operate when the 12-volt compressor is the only source of air is that this compressor is of limited capacity and is plumbed to pressurize only a selected list of components. This list has always included the toilet, but apparently the air doors were not included in 1995. Since then, the air doors have been added to the items powered by the 12-volt compressor. Another key system that operates from the 12-volt compressor is the air seals on slide-out coaches. The whole idea is to provide a reasonable level of functionality even when neither the engine is running nor a primary source of 110-volt power is available.
