1982 PT40 Air Compression

[waynekotila]

Did you get your problem figured out yet? The rear of the bus airing up and not
the front may be a seperate problem. This sounds like a problem with the level
control valves, there are two in the rear that control the amount of air
distribution pressure to the air bags on left and right side of the bus and
there is one in the front that controls the air distribution pressure between
the front and rear air bags. If one of these valves fails the air bags on one
side or one end of the bus may not inflate.

been sitting for 4 years. Have a buyer who came form Texas. He installed new
batteries and she fired right up. The problem: the air compression didn't kick
in. It was working perfectly when parked. A portable air compressor was
connected to the rear line and the rears and tag lifted but not the front end.

Maybe a relay or switch or valve has failed. I can't advise these
buyer/mechanics. Please I need your feedback.

would more than welcome any of your feedback for my buyer.
