Treadle valve

[fraser8]

This morning the air on the bus was down to zero. Check for a leak and I found air escaping from the bottom of the treadle valve. Is there a campsite fix or do I need to get a new one. I'm just south of Lincoln City Oregon

If it coming from the bottom and below freezing warm it up the exhaust is frozen open

good luck

Thanks, it's 62 degrees and the air is coming from the bottom of the valve. I can slow it down a bit by turning the screw on the bottom but not stop it. I'd hate to lose air on the road

I smacked it with a hammer and the leak stopped. I can get another one from Newport Diesel, a couple of hundred miles up the road.
