The air guage has 2 needles. One is orange (like all the others) and the other is green. Which is for the front air tank and which is for the rear?
Where would one find this information as it isn't in the owners manual?

My manual doesn't say which needle relates to which tank, but this may possibly be able to tell you - it's worth a try:

I have 2 compressed air vents that I bleed occationally to get rid of any water in the system. One vent is at the back next to the hitch and the other is in the front next to the generator. If there is any logic to this, the back vent would service the back compressed air tank and the front vent the front tank.

Try bleeding the vents and see if this tell you which needle belongs to which tank, as the pressure should drop in the tank you are bleeding.

This is just a suggestion and I hope it works.

Also, check out this link to a recent thread:
Comment made by pipedream2

Here he states the following : "On my coach the Red needle is the rear tank and the green needle is the front tank." This may give us a clue about which may be which.

Learn something every day. I was always under the impression that the green gauge was for the primary air system and the red (or orange) was for the secondary system.
