Part: TUBE — CORRODED (OIL/FUEL HEATER)
THE RIGID STEEL TUBE THAT FEEDS INTO THE OIL/FUEL HEATER HAS DEVELOPED LITTLE PIN HOLES UNDERNEATH THE FIRE LOOP BRACKET THAT ATTACHES THERE. WHEN YOU TAKE THE LINE OFF, IT JUST LOOKS LIKE LITTLE DOTS OF CORROSION BUT WHEN YOU PRESSURIZE IT WITH AIR, IT LEAKS AT AN EXTREME RATE. POSSIBLE CAUSE COULD BE ADEL CLAMP CHAFING OR CORROSION.
Part: HOUSING — DAMAGED (BRAKE ASSY)
BRAKE CYLINDER HOUSING WORN AT THE ANCHOR BOLT PASS THROUGH HOLE ALLOWING THE ANCHOR BOLT TO BE PRESSED OUT BY HAND. THIS IS NORMALLY A CLOSE TOLERANCE FIT. THIS CONDITION IN THE PAST HAS CAUSED THE ANCHOR BOLT TO SHEER OFF CAUSING CATASTROPHIC DAMAGE TO THE CALIPER ASSEMBLY, TORQUE PLATE AND/OR TIRE OR THREE AC. (K)
