No air pressure on start up - dandarst - 07-12-2005 11:47 Started the Cat and no air pressure would build on the gauges or suspension (first time ever). Shut cat off and turned on auxiliary air compressor. Everything aired up as usual. Shut off auxiliary air compressor and restarted cat. Air pressure would build normally. What is starting to fail? Thanks. dandarst86fc35rbhuntleyil. No air pressure on start up - dthollis1961 - 07-12-2005 12:08 Dan, I would replace the air pressure governor. About a $15.00 part.

No air pressure on start up - fred89sp - 07-12-2005 13:27 Is it possible that the wet tank had no pressure, that the front and rear brake tanks had pressure and that you did not run the engine long enough for the wet tank pressure to get high enough to start raising the pressure in the front and rear brake tanks? --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "dandarst" > Started the Cat and no air pressure would build on the gauges or > suspension (first time ever).

NAPA carries the governor, it is mounted on the air compressor under the doghouse.

I saw the governer last week while changing the fuel line. If anyone has the part number handy for Napa, would appreciate it. dandarst86fc35rbhuntleyil. >From: "Dan Weaver" >Reply-To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com >To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com >Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Re: No air pressure on start up >Date: Wed, 13 Jul 2005 01:42:56 -0000 > >I second that.

They are available from most heavy truck stores. Should cost from $10 to $20. Napa will most likley be the highest priced. I have an extra that I carry with us. It is easy to change. Two 7/16 bolts, a couple of allen plugs to put in the new one.(they come with it) and 2 hoses to undo and reattach.

FYI, both Jacobs and Pac breaks are the same. Just that Jacobs was bought by Paccar.(Pac-Brake) I was mistaken about Cummins owning Jacobs. Jacobs makes various versions of braking devices. The one on my coach is a drive-line retarder.

The Original Jacobs Brake is an Engine brake utilizing the valves and the Pac Brake is an Exhaust Brake utilizing a butterfly in the exhaust system. Jacobs does make various types of braking systems since the original patents have run out, but are the originator of the Engine Brake only. The others they have copied. The end results of the Pac Brake and the Jake Brake are basically the same in that they slow the coach but the Jake is very noisy while the Pac is very quiet. I have installed and used both and if given a choice today, would have the Pac Brake. It is less complex and are not outlawed in many places like the Jake Brake.

If so where did you get it? tom 1982 FC35 SB Vernon Center,NY At 08:56 AM 7/13/2005 -0700, you wrote: >Harold wrote: > > > Curt, > > Upham is about 100mi north of Sacto. > > > > FYI, both Jacobs and Pac breaks are the same.
