when i hit the switch it makes an awfull noise like air escaping all over. then i let off and hit the switch again and it works

so i took off the back 4 valves and took one apart. definately does not look anything like what i was expecting

so is there a part i can lube up ? it looks all electromagnetic or somethin'


the valves are brand new and have never even been driven on yet

any help would be great.

I have had a valve "stick" before...It was due to moisture in the airline and valve. If you have moisture in the valve and the temps get low then you can have that happen.

Make sure you have an Air/Water seperator, it helps but may not get ALL of it. You will also want to drain your air tank(s) every now and then...

black jacks, from fbi i'm thinkin. not to hard, just take em apart, remember how you did it, lube them up and put them back together, I had one i had to do a month or so ago.
