Subject: | Re: Desiccant Question |
Hi Doug,
Good advise!!
I have a new new air drier in with my spare parts which has never been fitted.
I can't find any hardware to mount it which is the most likely reason it is not
sitting on the airplane. I live in the tropics and have already seen what moisture
can do to the inside of my air system so am keen to fit it.
Do you have a fitting kit and mounting instructions for a CJ??
Thanks,
Lance

pads after the desiccant, I am assuming that this was designed to absorb the moisture
if you were a bit late in changing your desiccant. My personal opinion
is that rather than to remove some felt pads you should consider moving you your
time line for desiccant change. Failure to maintain your pneumatic system
(keep it clean and dry) will cost you dearly down the road. I have found that
telling this to many CJ drivers is much like trying to convince a 16 year old
that smoking may result in lung cancer.
