WELL I found an airline under the Barth looks like it came off the air drain on one of the tanks with 110 lbs of air in the tanks I think it can be used to fill the tires.will it have enough pressure to blow out the air filters or will it drop too fast?

It's not a very large tank, so it drains-down fairly quickly, but with the diesel running, it's an infinite source of compressed air.

I am not really knowledgeable about air systems, but should their be a warning about now, about not being under a coach with air suspension with out it being adequately supported, in case of an air release of some sort?

Hopefully the air goes through a Dryer/filter before it goes to either tank. The air in either tank should be of the same quality.
