AIR SYSTEM ??
The standards for airing up and testing brakes for your air brake system are the
same as a big rig. The following link will provide guidelines for testing your brakes and timing of air loss. As an OTR driver I perform these tests daily so nothing grabs me at 70mph and 80K pounds. It would give you and indication of where to start looking also. Some of the information is not applicable to the coach because you do not have air brakes on a trailer. You bleed down test is exceedingly important to check the protection valve. http://iowadot.gov/mvd/ods/cdl/section5.pdf. --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "jamiejbrandt" wrote: > > I HAVE A 1990 WB40 AND WHEN I START IT IT TAKES ALONG TIME TO BUILD UP AIR ATLEAST I THINK ITS ALONG TIME ITS NEW TO ME AND IM NOT SURE HOW LONG IT SHOULD TAKE > ALSO I HAVE TO PUT IT IN HIGH RPM TO GET IT TO GO UP > AFTER I GET IT UP TO ABOUT 115 WHEN I BACK OUT OF DRIVEWAY BY THE TIME I GET IT TO THE ROAD IT DROPS TO 80 THE ONLY TIME IT STAYS HIGH IS ON THE ROAD AT A GOOD SPEED IS THIS NORMAL > > ALSO THE HOSES AND THE SWITCH PLATE FOR THE GREY AND BLACK WATER DUMP IS LEAKING A BIT NOT THAT BAD DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE TO GET REPLACMENT PARTS > > ALL HELP IS APPRCIATED THANKS > JAMIE BRANDT > 1990 WB40 > FLORIDA > |
