Yep, my wounds were self inflicted. Through the help of rrrr and the TM, I was able to determine that I was feeding live air to a dead trailer brake output. Once I plugged both ends of that line I had added, put my old governor on, and bled the brakes, life was good and the truck was building...

Look at post #9. I'm back to that, wondering if this is self inflicted. Is that air line too small to provide air to the valve from the tank? Maybe more volume is required to shift it???

Got the rebuilt airpak installed last night. Topped off the master cylinder with DOT 5. Started the truck, and watched to see if I build air pressure. NOPE. No change. So I now have a rebuilt airpak and a new governor on there, and I'm still not building air. Air is blowing out of the vent...

I completely rebuilt the airpak yesterday in about 4 hours. Yes, I made sure I got the pushrod seal and the piston seal in there correctly. Cleaned everything up with gas, blew it all off well with air, lubed it all with new DOT 5, and reassembled following the TM with my iPad. I used a very...

Airpak wins. We pulled the little plug on the front of the airpak and stuck a longggg screwdriver in without touching anything. Wrong again. I'm ordering the airpak rebuild kit yet tonight. Almost has to be bad seals and bushings on the air end. I love troubleshooting, seriously. It was...

Can I pull the plug on the front end (hydraulic end) of the airpak and push the piston back with the bleeder valve open??? Anyone tried this?? I'm convinced this is it. Everything is forward so far that the air is just going right out the exhaust.

I put air to the output line off of the compressor this evening. Had my son watch the gauge . Still built only 30-35 psi with my shop compressor hooked to it. I'm convinced now that the compressor is ok. I've been studying the airpak. It occurs to me that during the process of bobbing the...

I installed a new governor last night with no change in results. I have worn out the TM's and search looking for an exploded view of the compressor. If someone could point me to one, I would really appreciate it. I have a single cylinder style. I'm going to pull the top off of it tonight to...

I dont have any gladhands left in the back. I think I will however, take your advice and adapt my compressor to the air line coming out of the compressor to see what that gives me. I keep thinking governor...Doesnt the air compressor pump air until it is told not to, or does it only pump when...

Here's the pic. Is that impacting the volume enough to cause an issue?

I thought I may not get an answer on the "unmodified" thread due to the way I've chopped her up....

Hey all. I need a little help. Yep, I've searched. Yep, I read the manual. I need experience talking to me from someone who has had this issue. Please read all my info-it does not seem to match up well with any other posted problem, although I may have contributed to the problem! 1. I have air...
