    Air Brakes

    Yea I was thinking 809 series that let a little girl fart out after shut down. The CTIS one sounds like the fart that needs your shorts changed. Very different.

    Well since I would bet the air dryer needs a complete service top to bottom was hoping you would just buy a rebuild kit. Then while you are in there then you can check the check valve. The pool water is fine just jump in and sometimes cutting corners will bite you later.

    You can do it. You did the main fuel and did not break the stud so now you do the head. Also I pm you as I deleted your number so call me back when you can talk.

    Plus clean IP and affecting area real well. I like non-chlorinated Brakeleen to start with.

    Well if we have removed the timing cover ( some call it the shut down cover) and the fuel control is moving free and clear. It is going to 7 o clock could be something simple. I have never seen it but if the shut down cover and the linkage that pulls back the fuel control unit assembly was not...

    Maybe all the folding money you are throwing at the truck. No on anything in the Head to cause restriction.

    Also the head over flow valve needs to open up some when at high Idle ( almost full rpm ) and that would cause the restriction. Know you said you checked it but any problem with restriction starts with the over flow valve.

    65 Kaiser M35A2 project starts

    Yea we talked about a restriction in the over flow valve or somewhere in the return line going back to the tank. Still believe removing the return line off tank and watch it with in tank running and then with truck running. I know you said you did all the fuel feed and return in Synflex. Is...

    Yea they will run / idle with pressure so low your gage will not pick it up.

    Air Brakes

    Yea that one sounds like a governor fart. Just to add if anyone cares it was in a article I was reading some time ago. Something about a check valve in the air dryer under the in coming compressor line or it could even be under the fitting of out going line depending on make of dryer. You have...

    Give me a call when you can. Also with the valve out turn on in tank and see if any crud comes out. Try and place a rag / towel so as to catch and see if there is crud.

    Those with A3 rims that don't leak... Clamp ring tightness

    Yea the real pain was more mental. I jacked it up, changed the tire with my spare let it down put tools away. Put soapy water on the wheel / tire in question. Felt real tired and stupid as it is hot here and it was only the valve stem core. If I could have kicked myself I would have and no body...

    Air Brakes

    Glad to confused you oops I mean to help you. Also I see nothing wrong with the type of your air drier they just need serviced after so long. You might get a kit and service yours if it is not in bad shape inside like badly corroded. Been awhile but a member had some nice NOS air dries for sale...

    Those with A3 rims that don't leak... Clamp ring tightness

    One thing I did when putting on the ring nuts I used two non distorted nuts across from each either. Tighten them down tight and slow and try to keep ring equal. Then start to install the distorted nuts and tighten each on down. When you have all distorted nuts torqued replace the two non...

    Not a problem as I was thinking one thing and posting another. Also corrected some of my post's so anyone reading this thread is not as confused as me at this point.

    Air Brakes

    Here to it is pop off not PPV term. Guess I started it and should have corrected him right away. My bad. A leak would not cause to pop off every 6 seconds. Sometimes the lower unit on the air dryer gums up and will not close right. Sometimes you can take something small and round and blunt push...
