    Maybe I misunderstand what your saying but there should only be air coming out of the blue line if your appling the brake pedal or hand valve

    That's correct. I double checked it today and air is coming out of the blue line. After re-adjusting the brakes they seem to work better. The only thing that is strange is the brake pedal is hard compared to any other truck I've ever driven but push harder on the pedal it stops you. I don't like the feel but it seems to work okay.. I'm not sure how much PSI was coming out of the blue line but it seemed weak to me. I don't think I'm out of the woods yet!!
