Black Valves

[Curt Sprenger]

Greg,

Good point, Paul's dump valves just might be air dump valves. I'll know more after observing on Friday. On our coach, the air valve controls are just above the dump pipe hose connection. If you are not too busy, can you meet at Paul's in the early am Friday? I'll buy breakfast!

maybe Paul has air dump valves?? Curt is the air dump switch close

to the valve on the 87pt? and Paul if they are dupree I think they

are air operated and you need to build up air in the tank first to

use the air valve.
