Technically it was the air dryer that broke and stuck stuck open. I bought a fitting to bypass it, connecting the 2 lines. It will get me home and I’ll replace it then.
My truck is frozen; advice?

Bunker and blower reefers. 2 gallon gas can for the putt putt engine. IH gas burner, Esso #5 oil, thick/sluggish.
When they were up past landing gear unloading, take the 5 gallon trash bucket you carried with the brick in it.
Soak the brick with gas, set in front. light the brick, flame stabilize, slide it under the pan. Time it burned out,
engine would spin.Rideandrepair and blairandgretchen Thank this. -
