What did you do to your rig today?

[Wilbor]

I have been getting a bit of gear from Bretts Trucks. Look them up on the net, their prices on filters etc are pretty good and freight quick

Rob,

I have dealt with Bretts Trucks a few times, the last time a week ago, ordered a rocker cover gasket on the Friday afternoon and it was in my PO box on the following Monday.

Wow, you can't complain about that. I like all the little extras they through in the box, keyrings, highlighter pens, pads etc

Newcastle George will know what I'm talking about here . Mate I replaced the leaky air/water trap thingy with one from up the front of the bus off the main air tank . Then put a 3/8 bung in the hole . cant find a leak but its still loosing air ? could it be bleeding back to the compressor ?
Soapy water don't show any leaks on any join .
Terry jump in if you can . It started yesterday couldn't get any air up , then it would . This morning it done the same then all of a sudden started building up . But when you turn engine off 1/2 hour latter no air the main tank , the air door tank remains full ..sorta..

Along the air line you will find a large fitting that looks like an oversized pipe joiner. Inside there is a one way check valve that stops the air tank bleeding back to the compressor, I'm guessing this is where the problem is located.

Yer got the same thing but only on one tank out of two tanks the left one is always up the gauges on the dash show the right one only last an hour
