Title: MCI 9 Entry Step Pneumatic Valve
Post by: Doug1968 on September 14, 2015, 06:50:24 AM
The Entry Step pneumatic valve located in the panel to the left as you enter the bus has developed an air leak. The gasket between the valve body and the cap has failed and although the step still works air leaks full time.

The Valve is a Peter Paul 643J3DCM - 24v.

Looking for information on where to find the gasket or a replacement valve. Has any of you MCI 9 owners had this issue or replaced this valve with another manufacturers component?

Thanks, Doug

Clifford,

I'm having no luck finding a Norgren valve with the part number you listed?

Clifford,

Ok! I must be getting old? I wouldn't make a very good detective?

I'll give them a call.

Thanks
