While replacing a rear wheel on my M35A3 with one I picked up from Big Camo Truck, I needed to use my 3/4' impact wrench to loosen the lug nuts. I hooked up to the emergency port on my A3 and was only able to remove one lug nut. Raising the RPM to 1500 allowed me to get another one loose. I was very surprised as I routinely use the same impact wrench using the air from my A2 and I have never had difficulty removing lug nuts from deuces. I then backed my A2 up to the A3 and again went after the remaining lug nuts using the same impact wrench hooked up to my A2's air. With the A2 air supply, the remaining lug nuts came loose immediately. My impact wrench definitely developed more torque.
As far as I know, the air supply on the A3 is working correctly and I was reading 120 PSI on the gauge. Has anyone else seen this issue with the A3 air versus A2 air pressure? As a side note, I have now discovered that one of my wheel valves on the A3 is bad. At least it's relatively easy to replace.
