What about that air doubler that was discussed on the BB? What is the model and price and source?

Greg,

I have an air doubler installed in my Newell. I bought it from Newell Coach and I can get the information on it if you would like it. But, Jon posted somewhere a while back that your series 60 air compressor can be adjusted to produce 130 psi. I could never get more than 90 psi out of my series 60 so I installed the air doubler. Maybe Jon can jump in with a "how to" adjust a series 60 to produce 130psi. That would save you the cost of an air doubler (about $300).

I have no clue how to adjust my bus air compressor.

I surmise if Tuga was getting only 90 PSI he has a regulator between his quick connect fitting and his line to the aux air system. Once he finds that and adjusts it to allow full air pressure he can fill his tires from that.

Tuga,

I suspect your brake air pressure gauges are showing higher than 90 PSI. If not you need to get that resolved. We all run around 120, 125 or up to 130.

I bought one of those double tank, 150#, air compressors from Costco and installed it in a right rear bay that has a 110V connection. It is perfect for tires and I use it regularly with my air tools. My 50' flexible hose will reach any wheel or compartment and I don't have to start my engine to get air. This is mostly used while connected to 50 amp but it will work just as well on the road. Just a thought. It works best for me, fits in a small space, and a lot better than the Air-Doubler on my Bro-in-Laws Newell and it's 1/2 the price.

found air outlet, bought hose, bought fittings, hooked it up, guess what? Not enough pressure to fill front tires. Guess I will still have to buy another compressor after all. Dan

Darl can you let me know the model number of you compressor. Thanks, Dan

Dan, I'm at work right now but I'll be going home soon and I'll get the model ##. I looked for one at Costco on-line but they don't have the 150# model. I did see one in the store 2-3 weeks ago and it was still $149. This really is great compressor and a great price. One good thing, you already have the hose!

I'll post that number soon Dan.
