Generator airbag doo hickey - BusNit - 01-18-2022

Not sure where to order this part. Martin? Online somewhere? It does leak and my reflection shows it!

AH! I just replaced my same Pressure regulator on my coach. I bought it at NAPA, pretty standard.
Side note; as I said, replace all that are in the same area...I broke off a fitting in the top of an generator air bag. DON'T LET That happen. 3 or 4 hrs of head ache to fix that broken nipple out of the top of the air bag.

What should the pressure be set at? 40? Thanks for the advice! Found the regulator online. I did buy four new airbags a few months back for the genset but have been putting off swapping them. No leaks despite them looking tired.

As far as pressure, high enough to float the generator on the bags, low enough to ensure the highest point on the engine does not contact the roof of the slide out.

I personally set mine pretty low, just high enough to raise the generator about an inch.

So I found one online last night and received the email that they are out of stock. I'll try Napa.

Napa, Lowes, Home Depot, Northern Tool It is a generic air pressure regulator. Just pay attention the NPT size on the existing so you don't have to cobble adapters or bushings.
