    2002 379 with a new air dryer getting a good amount of water in the tanks everyday. It purges but not as much as it should I’d say. Air compressor is about 2 years old.

    Any ideas on what I can start with?

    Is the compressor cycling properly or running a lot of the time? The dryer should purge when the governor unloads the compressor. Listen to see if the compressor is cutting out without the dryer purging. I’ve had AD/IS dryers come out of the box ####ed up before, but when they work right the reservoirs are dry.
