  • Air governor problem

    Posted by Mike on October 18, 2022 at 9:25 am

    Good morning Everyone, I’m having an air

    governor issue. Can someone give me some

    advice? I replaced my air governor and dryer

    filter maintenance. The new governor did not

    cut out even at 150 psi. So I shut down the

    engine and adjusted the governor to cut out

    at 120 psi. The problem I’m having now is

    the governor will not cut in until it reaches

    80 psi. Do I have a bad governor? Or can I

    adjust the cut in? Thanks in advance!

    I would just change to another replacement Gov. If that doesn’t work your prob looking at unloader in air compressor. Then that depends on your skills. also make sure your gasket is aligned correct between pr and compressor. Bob

    Thanks Bob & Dick! I appreciate the comments.
    Ok I changed the governor Bob and as luck would have it I never got a chance to see if the governor was the problem. The norgren valve on passenger side between drive axle and trailing axle started leaking air. Prevost doesn’t have one and Norgren took my order but has no clue when they will have one. Had plans for a trip during the holidays but that has been busted. If you have suggestions please send them and have a Happy Thanksgiving!
