Sunday before Kathy broke her wrist I was servicing the AD2. I had
purchased a new cartridge and purge valve kit. The parts counter person
recommended that I also replace the integral check valve that is on the
output of the AD2. I had everything together and was making an air test
when Kathy had her accident. I shut down and took her to emergency. That
was Sunday. Today, Wednesday, I went out to the bird and when I opened the
door the step actuated! I tried the steering and seat locks and they also
worked. BIG improvement. Up until now about five hours was as long as the
auxiliary air would stay up. The whole rebuild took about 2.5 hours
although I got pretty dirty. I had rebuilt the AD2 before but never replace
the check valve.



Just for information.

On a similar note. I just installed a Rostra electric cruise control. I
removed and plugged
the fitting where the vacuum generator was installed in the air system. Air now
holds for
at least 7 days whereas prior to this work, it would hold about 18 hrs. Vacuum
generator
must have been leaking.
