I started the teardown the furnace. I figured I could get it running and use it to keep the camper warm while I worked. Well it was in rough shape. I’m going to need some parts. The bad news is after doing a bunch of research they don’t make parts for these anymore. Suburban considers these too old to service. I sort of get it, it is 51 years old, lol! After joining a Facebook group for Holiday Rambler owners I found several very helpful people who gave me some insight into this furnace. I also called Suburban and they sent me over a repair and service manual for the Model NT-17C with part numbers(See Below), although none of the part numbers are available.
