one way to get some of the moisture and oil out your air system is to drain your tanks everyday so in this video i demonstrate how to drain your air tanks on a 2015 international prostar.This is a similar process for many semi trucks.

I thought this was done with the engine off but I hear your engine on and running? I’m new to all this but I get diff answers from each video on KZfaq. Pls help

@truckingpaysthebills5394 Жыл бұрын

I keep the engine running so the air compressor can continuously send air to the tanks so the tanks won't get empty quickly while I'm draining the air. But you can also do it with the engine off.

I have a 2023 International and I can't find anything on it on how to drain the tanks on KZfaq or on Google

You cant find the drain valve or you dont know how to drain the valve?

@@truckingpaysthebills5394 I can't find it. My buddy has the same truck as me he found it but it's not in the same place as his which is weird. And we both have the 2023 International LT

If you are sure the problem is in the tanks put heat on the air tanks. You might wanna watch my other video titled air is not building up in your truck try this it works

I have a 23 can I drain both tanks at the same time because both cables are zip tied together,also does both valves need to be pulled out or just the parking brake? thanks

@truckingpaysthebills5394 Жыл бұрын

Both valves on the air tanks need to be pull or bush depending on your style. your brakes need to be set

@bryeats7501 Жыл бұрын

How do you know when it’s done draining ?

@truckingpaysthebills5394 Жыл бұрын

When there is nothing but air coming out of it. You can put your hand there and see if water is splattered on your hand or put something there that you can see clearly that water is coming out.
