Jason came as promised and used a flashlight to find out he had been trying to undo the pressure switch at the wrong spot. Got that straightened out and immediately got it off after releasing some air from air tank by pulling on the relief valve. The old pressure switch was found to be corroded and bad, as we suspected. New switch in, and good to go.
Not so fast. Got it started and leveled, shut off the engine and all we hear is air pissing out, from the tank as it turned out, right out the relief valve that Jason used to release the pressure. So under he goes again, wiggles the valve and voila! Success. Not so fast, turns out the relief valve when it releases pressure automatically won't reseal itself like it is supposed to. Needs a wiggle or it keeps pissing air.
NO GOOD! When the engine is running and we are going down the road this valve releases air about every 5 minutes or so. So it has to be fixed. Found one in Tampa at Lazy Days, so monday morning I will run up there and get it, and then Jason, one more time, is going to crawl under and replace the relief valve, and then FINALLY we will be fixed! Tada....
