    Bigboy down again,M923 won't build air past 59psi

    Have you ruled out the horn air solenoid valve by disconnecting the wires to see if it stops blowing? A spring causes it to stop blowing the horn which may be wore out or stuck. I don't know where that connection is in the wiring you asked about. I would guess it's on the engine side of the...

    Bigboy down again,M923 won't build air past 59psi

    It sounds to me like the air valve on the horn is always allowing air past it to the horns regardless of wheather or not the horn switch is activated. The horns probably do not produce sound at less than 59psi. The constant air drain from the horn air valve is keeping the pressure from building.

    Bigboy down again,M923 won't build air past 59psi

    The unloader valve is built into the top of the compressor. It has a spring which keeps it in a position to send the air generated by the compressor to the air dryer. When the air governor senses 120psi it sends air through a small line to the unloader valve overcoming the spring and changing...

    M989 Trailer to camper project

There is some water getting inside during heavy rains and the next step is to blast it inside & out to remove all of the layers of paint. Then patch any areas that need it a according to the military procedure I seen listed...

    PPV valve replacement does seem to solve the problem

    You can remove the small air line that goes into the top of the compressor(unloader valve) to rule out the governor. If it still wont build past 90psi with this line removed then the governor is not the problem.

    M923a2 Brake light problem

    As was mentioned mounted in the inside of the drivers side frame rail about even with the rear of the fuel tank. Disconnect it and jump the wires together. If the brake lights come on then you have found the problem.

    BBQ get together in Northern KY Sat. Apr. 2...

    We had some great BBQ and conversation on Saturday, mission accomplished! However we failed to get a photo of the trucks, all two of them including ours. Spyderman was the only other person there which puts him at member of the week status again.

    Laser rust remover

    I am in the laser business and can offer some insight. The laser in the video looks to be a focused, scanning variety. I'd guess 1064nm(color of light) @ 20Watt(output energy) or more. Probably a fiber or YAG type(how the beam is generated) Good brand name lasers such as these are tens of...
