I have two 5 gallons tanks for my F.B.S.S. setup. There are only one output on them. Would my system be quicker if I made an output for every single valve ??? Now I've got one output (One tank) for the two valves for the front and one for the back.

I have one watertrap between my output and my valves on both tanks. If I'm going to get two outputs on every tank I need another watertrap, and that will look stupid But if it's better with an output for every valve I think I'll do it anyway....

ya, you usually want each valve to have its own supply...
also, most people put the seperator between the tank and the compressor...

DOH ! Ofcause... The watertrap between the compressor and tank.... Dammit !

When people use an enigedriven compressor beside the electric ones, do they just add a T-fitting before the watertrap, and use the one input for the elec. compressor and other input for the enginedriven ?? Hope You understood this.... *lol* Or else I have to make a drawing of what I meen.
But if using a T-fitting I will blow air from the enginedriven and into the elec. compressor. Will that damage the elec. compressor ??? Or else I have to add a "oneway" valve. Don't know the word for it in english... *lol* So the enginedriven will not put air in the elec. one......

yeah just "T" it off most compressers supplied by air ride companies such as viair have check valves in them already

[baggedimpala]

ya, just make sure theres a "one way valve" on each compressor...
then the can share a common inlet before the water trap..

There is a "one way valve" in each of the original hoses from the compressor. So that should not be a problem. Thanks for all the help here. GREAT !

my opinion?

dont rely on the stock checks in the hoses, but some good parkers or something more substantial...

Thanks. I've now bought a seperate checkvalve for my system.
BTW: where can i buy the best (and cheapest) pressureswitches ???? I need a 145 and a 175 Psi valve......

[baggedimpala]

there are usually some nice adjustable ones on eBay for around 40 bucks, 0-400 psi
