Tank is a bad install since there’s no low point drain valve. As is the tank would have to fill up 1/3 to 1/2 before it can escape the drain valve. Water is heavier than air so it ends up at bottom. So drain needs to be at the lowest point in tank.
Wait, water is heavier than air? Are you sure? I’m sure glad you graced me with your wisdom. Customer wanted tank outside of the truck, not many viable options under the truck, not many options for ports on the bottom that would allow for the drain to be placed there. Let’s be honest how many people actually drain their air tanks in their air system? Not many. Most use the system without any thought of their moisture drain ever being opened. I agree it isn’t in the optimal spot but unless I welded new mounts on the tank or welded a new bung into it and voided the warranty for him there wasn’t many options. So thanks for your science lesson on the weight of water but you obviously didn’t pay attention to the location of the mounts on the tank or listen to the fact that they DID NOT WANT THE TANK IN THE CAB, thanks for commenting and watching.
@@AutomedicGarage All it would have taken was different mount brackets allowing the tank to rotate 90⁰ so the flat brackets are up they're really made to be. It sounds like you may be a paid "pro" so people will naturally watch these vids and think that's the "right" way to do it. Sounds like you know better just chose the wrong way to mount it and it's your choice.. My comment here is more for those that don't know and looking for instructions. Yes I caught the not in cab, issue is not tank underneath, just the orientation of the tank not allowing drain.
@@mrmotofy again you didn’t notice the mounts are welded to the tank, if I modify mounts, weld new brackets or install a new drain bung warranty is void. No?
So I guess I should cut the welded on brackets off the tank and weld new ones on to the man’s brand new tank and void his warranty? The bracket don’t just bolt on.
