LLY: Airdog air leak??///How do i pull the bed off?

[SSchmi5519]

Long story short:

1) Where might an Airdog system encounter an air leak?

2) How do i pull off the bed.

Long story long (lol):

I have a nasty air leak somewhere in the lines of my Airdog 150 system.

Like the manual states, or something to this effect, "If the unit is excessively noisy, and the noise goes away upon loosening the water seperator drain, then an air leak is present."

It sounds like this... ehmm HummmmmmmmmmYARNGHumYARNGYARNGhummmmmmmmmmYARNG (If you're motivated you can re-created this sound for yourself.. )

I fear that it's the connection of the pick up tube to the grommet piece where the tank was drilled and the air leak is basically inside the tank.

I'm not dropping the tank out again. -:t:banghead: So I will be pulling the bed off, replacing all the hoses, and re-sealing all the threaded connections.


SO, i ahve placed this thread here in hopes to get answers as to other possible leak areas etc, as well as info for pulling the bed off.

Thanks guys.

If the truck starts and runs correctly you do not have an air leak. You have a sloppy instalation.

Mine makes the same sound but has never missed a beat.. Pulling the bed off is a matter of 8 bolts, unplugging the wires to the tail lights, an letting the filler neck loose... Very simple.. Takes about 20 min an that's how I installed mine with the bed off..

Why would installation have anything to do with it unless there was in fact a small air leak?
