Title: Name of Air Valve
Post by: Jan & Richard on August 11, 2021, 05:46:34 pm
I have some kind "valve" on my rear (right hand side) air tank that is the source of a major air leak.  On my air schematic diagram I believe it is the item labeled "L" but I can not find the key listing the name of item "L".  I plan to buy a replacement and a spare for the rear tank but I need to know what to ask for. 

Thanks,

Richard

Thanks Mike,

Next question:  What are the acceptable closing and opening  pressures?  The one you cited is 80/85 psi.  I have found all sorts of pressure ranges, but have not yet found 80/85.

Mine are #60/65 that one listed is just the first one to pop up. Those would work it would give you more air for brakes if you had a massive air line failure at the dry tanks.
