I have a 9400i with Cummins ISX. While idling the truck will build pressure to 120, purge and remain at 120. randomly the truck loses pressure down to 30 psi in each tank.
I have been chasing this for a couple of weeks now. No one I take the truck to can find any leaks anywhere.
Truck off, no audible air leaks, and truck running no audible air leaks.
Compressor is only 2 years old, air governor is only 1 year old, air dryer is only 4 months old.
At highway speeds air stays between 100 and 120 psi.
anyone have any ideas or suggestions.
Thanks

fan air clutch ? check it.
-
find out when the PRESS. goes down, stop the truck get out and find leak, air drier might be hanging up sometimes.
-
just replaced fan clutch 3 days ago. still happening
-
tried checking it this way but no audible leaks. what should i check in/on dryer? this started after we replaced the dryer with a brand new one
-
the spitter might be freeze up is heater wire con. getting power? you must catch it acting up and find the prob.
-
spitter? you mean the purge valve, heater wire is connected, i will double check everything again.... please keep giving me ideas, anything helps in this hunt.... thanks..... -
Air leaks like this with the engine running are common with massive leaks at the turbo actuator or the solenoid valve for the turbo actuator.
QUALITYTRUCK Thanks this. -
if you must, you can bypass the dryer to see if leak goes away,
-
if it started when the dryer was changed????????? always look for the common denominator
