No air to secondary tank... pressure stays at 50 at idle RPM's... please help!

the drivers side air tank is the wet and secondary tank. their is a check valve in between the 2 tanks. that valve is stopped up. you can replace the valve by removing the fitting at the end of the tank. use a really long extension to remove and replace it. or you can replace the air tank.

 

$22 p/n is teq 375CVA internal mounted OR TEQ 250CVA external mounted. should not take longer then 2 hours. i have attached the directions for replacing both styles

 

Yep I mean Governor..... slipped again.

 

Sounds like a leak in the secondary?

Raising the RPM increases the compressor output sufficiently to overcome the leak?

What happens to secondary pressure after you run it up when you drop to idle?

If secondary falls when you idle the motor it's likely a leak...

 

Hey Mercer driver, i have a similar problem, that braided line does it run from turbo to compressor, please advice

 

Over 8 years since this graveyard was posted in. I doubt that you'll get an answer.

 

So what fixed it ?
I have the same issue I’m thinking of getting new tanks

 

Thirteen years ago he said it was a leaking air line to the v-pod. If that is your problem also then you should know that when that line fails it's usually because an exhaust leak cooked it.
