militant air tank


Recommended Posts

Having got round to fitting new injection pump to my Militant wrecker and got her running, I've discovered the offside air tank has a small hole which is leaking air and not building pressure , any hints on removal and repair .

thanks

Air tanks on commercial vehicles are pretty standard things. Your local commercial motor factors should be able to supply you a matching new one. They're not that expensive in the grand scheme of things.

 

As for removal, plenty of penetrating fluid on the pipe unions, and leaving them to soak before undoing them helps. Bit of gentle heat from a plumbers blow lamp may also get them moving.

 

Keep an eye on the actual pipe as well to make sure it doesn't twist when pulling on the union.
