I did not drive the truck, the low air alarm is really annoying. The regulator was dumping all of the air pressure through the bottom of the unit, there is an adjustment that I still need to investigate and adjust. The truck is fine now, although it appears to dump more air after making a...
Top half of the valve pic
so I shot some lubricant into the top of the valve and that seems to have worked so I at least I can drive it now, but still looking for adjustment procedure.
thank you, in advance
From the pitman arm an airline passes through the frame, into what I am calling a pressure relief valve, please correct me if my terminology is not correct. The valve appears to be stuck open. After removing the lower section I could see t rubber diaphram had a small kink. I have not had any...

I was able to extract and replace! After a substantial amount of screaming and a little cursing, sorry neighbors! I hope to have it all cleaned up and installed tonight. I never did figure out what the white powder coating under the paint was, does anyone have any idea? Looks like some form of...
M35A3 air dryer dated 2008, so I thought I would do the TM service. I was able to pull the dryer but the filter is stuck, so after using a ratcheting strap to stabilize the unit I decided to go ahead and skip to the pressure valve replacement. If it wasn't for bad luck, I don't think I would...
When I finished shopping at Home Depot Warrenton VA, I walked out to see a really nice 923 parked next to my M35! Nice meeting you John, we need to rattle the cage on the South Eastern Chapter. Next time park farther away so I don't feel so small!!!!
smell of butt sweat and Amine from the CO2 scrubbers on a submarine.
Now that was a smell, like nothing else in this world!
The former wife would require me to strip in the garage, then proceed to the shower, then I could give the "hi honey, I am home kiss", to continue back to the garage and...
I didn't even make it out of the driveway for about an hour! The silly parking brake was frozen solid, but at first I simply thought I had lost reverse, forward had enough force to overtake the stuck brake but reverse could not. Well smacking the brake with a 2x4 didn't work, so I put the heat...
