Buying my first Newell
#36

If the parts are reman and unused then the asking price is a bit less than list. Those parts can be easily obtained through any Detroit Diesel dealer or from several online sources.

These parts need to be stored dry. An injector with even a hint of corrosion on the tip is no good. So if you buy the parts consider how and where you will store them.

Another thing to consider is how there parts might get installed. If you hire the install and there is a subsequent problem, the installer will claim you provided a faulty part and assume no liability.

The coach will be driveable with a dead turbo or a bad injector or two. I drove several thousand miles after the seal on my water pump started leaking - it took me that long to figure it out. The starter was still working when the engine needed an overhaul due to worn out cylinders - it was a repower with an apparently well used engine.

We each find a comfort zone with the spares we choose to carry. My thought is to carry smallish stuff that will get me off the roadside, I wouldn't carry stuff because I could buy it at a discount. That is me, your legitimate choices may vary.
