    Air system relief valve opening on M925...Frozen air lines/valves?

    It does.......the element is replaced when changing the desiccant canister (sits in the center under the canister). Here's a picture of both removed : The replacement part/package came with both parts, an O ring....and even a little thimble or artic grease.

    Air system relief valve opening on M925...Frozen air lines/valves?

    Desiccant canister installed.......not sure of quality of product from supplier I received the desiccant canister yesterday and found an issue. I purchased the canister from E-pay and the surplus supplier had a 99.7% satisfaction rating. The problem is the aluminum sealant bag has a hole in...

    Air system relief valve opening on M925...Frozen air lines/valves?

    It's likely the drier as the wet tank is the first to get air from it, then the protection valve. Petcock #3 has never let water out after each run (unlike my M817 which spits like Daffy Duck). I'll change the desiccant and report back.

    Air system relief valve opening on M925...Frozen air lines/valves?

    Air system relief valve opening on M925...Frozen air lines/valves?

    It worked!!! A heat gun applied to the protection valve for about 5 minutes and it did the trick. The protection valve is on the front of the wet tank just to the right (when looking back towards the drier). I plan on changing the desiccant canister (the black can in the background of the...

    Air system relief valve opening on M925...Frozen air lines/valves?

    Thank you gents. I'll try a heat gun at the protection valve. I use to use it for R/C modeling (when applying covering to wings)......should work for this application. Merry Christmas!!

    Air system relief valve opening on M925...Frozen air lines/valves?

    Started the M925 up yesterday, jumped out of the cab to move some snow while it warmed up.......and came back to what could only be the emergency relief valve opening on the system (very distinct sound....like letting the air out of a balloon). I jumped in the cab, looked at the gauges, and...
