While my truck was running I had my air dryer leaking air from the purge valve. This video is how to replace the valve with the kit. Hopefully it will help you replace yours.
Thanks for your video trust me to time I buy the valve and I return it back to the dealer because I didn’t know how to put it but after I see your video it’s piece of cake thanks man I will do my truck tomorrow🙏🙏👍👍
Want to just be easier to buy another air dryer I tried that before my international had no luck I was down there for about hours trying to get that ring out
did everything and every time I started the truck the whole thing would come off again I put the O-ring the metal one really good it’s in but when I started the truck the whole kit it come off again
If you put a new kit on it should have come with new ones. Once installed use screwdriver and push hard onto the snap ring to be sure it seats in the groove.
My purge valve is consistently blowing air. Its not stopping but my air stays up when I'm driving but drops to 100lbs when sitting. Is a purge valve my problem?
Guess your right! Because I'm working on one now 2019 Volvo D13. Air dryer took a dump. Having issues with locating other parts. I work for Estes Trucking and these trucks are the the worst!
@@4jiggaalways i believe truck manufacturers arent loyal to one manufacturer of parts. Its whatever is cheaper is what gets put on them. Being that new and already having issues. Sucks. Unfortunately dealer for parts.
@n8pruts 602 thanks I've just purchased a volvo , thought this was a major issue but you restored my confidence and channeled my inner mechanics to get job done thanks again👍🏾
Why don t you replace the whole unit? much easier and you may have to replace the canister/filter soon anyway,it amounts to or close to whole unit's price,that s what shops recommend anyway.
Doing mine tomorrow. Filter/ canister/ cartridge is 62 bucks. Entire rebuild kit is 146. Brand new complete unit is 675. Shops are taught to upsell. Add labor into those prices if you're unable to do it yourself. Only time a whole unit replacement is worth it is if you're not able to do a full rebuild yourself. Or it gets damaged in an accident. Otherwise it's about an hour to do yourself
@@yeseniareyes6506 I learned my lesson well, I tried doing the rebuilding kit,it didn t quite work,so I ended buying a new unit. ever since then,I buy a whole unit every 4 yrs,30 minutes or so to replace it,my friend at my dealer lets me have it at cost (375.00).so to me replacing meal piece is a waste of time.
@@yeseniareyes6506 IF and IF I went this way...if I didn t have a friend at the dealer ,the purge valve for my unti is $130.00,the filter is $150.00,& in my unit the governor is attached to the dryer unit, the governor is $50.00. for me and only for me,it wouldn t make sense to buy a kit. The normal price of my air dryer is $525.00. To each his own,not that I don t know how,it just doesn t make $ense.
@@yeseniareyes6506My whole air dryer on my Volvo cost about 350.00 most likely I'm going to buy the whole unit and take it as a loss then it's way easier to repair the trying to get that old ring out
