    Glen,

    I have some good news and bad news.

    The good news is I can predict your bus will lean (or drop) in a predictable fashion and the solution is well known.

    The bad news is that your level low system logic is such that as soon as the auxiliary air system pressure drops to around 30 or 35 PSI the three port Norgren valves located up on the frame between the drive and tag axles will dump tag axle air. That means part of your solution to the leans involves making your entire aux system leak free.

    Both Hector and I should have noted that sooner, but I think we got sidetracked. Around the mid 90’s the level low system logic changed so a drop in aux system pressure would have no impact on your suspension or the leans. But unless your coach received the upgrade which I understand was about $1800, you need to maintain aux system pressure to keep the rear from dropping. Now that my feeble brain has kicked in it explains why you might have noticed the leans was going from side to side.

    The tech should have known that. And I should have mentioned it earlier. My bad.

    No I can’t Tom. Going to have to see it for myownself. Where can I see a pic of your new ride?

    We been busin’ some over the fall and winter. Getting ready to do a mini-trip over spring break with a stopover in OK and some JDUB bird hunting sprinkled in . Look forward to seeing some of the crew on the road this year!

    One of these days I might even get an invite to Rancho Loc-o. Never know with the sequester and all he may be on restricted travel.
