air line
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.

Yepyou would think so but the syst. isset up like this . think about this the comp. has steelbraided air line first 3 ft to air dryer why its hot very hot air dryer stops most but not all water oil and as it gets older stopsless and less first tank in syst is the place that itstartsto cool and condence and then moove onto rest of syst. the airdryer is also a maint item and needs service on a reg time sorry about spelling ect . Big Grin i turn wrenchs for w/m maybe can share brake training man with some one that can post or copy it for every one later
