So I assume the way a power bleeder works is you just pressurize the system and then bleed the air pack, then pressurize again and do each wheel? Correct?

Ok thanks, what would you bleed first? This air pack or the brakes? I would assume the air pack so you get get all the air out right there but I may be wrong.

So... got another question for you guys. After I rebuild my Air Pack and get it back on what is the procedure for bleeding the brakes? I have done a little research and found out how to "power bleed" brakes but is there more just a conventional way to do it? Would you bleed them like a normal...

I am interested. Sent PM

Ok guys so crawled under the truck and let it run for about 10 min. Air pressure only got to 80 lbs. I believe my hunch was right (the air pack). Basically when I turn the truck off I sprayed the entire air pack and all lines, I did not see any physical evidence of an air leak BUT there has been...

Good call, being new to the deuce world myself I was unaware you can adjust your air governor. Thanks for that info good to know.

ATPTac, I have not yet sprayed my lines to see where my air leak is coming from but I can just tell you how my truck is. Before this past weekend my truck would hold 120 PSI no problem while driving and then would also retain 120 PSI when shut off and slowly leak down over the corse of the day...

Ok I will definatley try that and see if I can hear the hiss. Thank you for the great input!!

Welldigger, should I push the pedal while the truck is off, or while running. and when you say vent air where should it be venting from? The tube next to the air box?

Thanks gimpyrobb. This is right on the firewall correct? I will spray this with soapy water as well. If your air governer is bad you can pick this party up at napa I believe?

Good idea clinto! Surprised I didn't think of doing that. I will tomorrow crawl under the truck and spray soapy water all over the air pack and nearby lines. Welldigger I will double check my glad hands and make sure I don't have a leak back there. Any other place I should check I am...

When my air pressure was up at 120 psi I had a good form pedal and stopped well, since my pressure now only Holds around 90 as of today pedal seems spongie and does not stop as well. I did check my glad hands did not hear our feel any leaks. I got under the truck and felt all around the lines...

With the truck running and no brakes applied I can only build 90 psi once shut down without applying brakes it only takes about 2 min to bleed down. The leak sounds internal to the air pack. Where are common leak areas or problem areas I should look for as well?

So, picked up my first deuce and absolutely loving it. Truck runs great and drives great but im thinking i may have a bad aor pack (not real sure).. I am new to the deuce world but I do know I have the short style air pack ILO the long. I was wondering though exactly how you know if your air...
