air tanks

My '06 Diplomat manual says to empty the air monthly
out of the two compressed air tanks.
One in front (by the Gen Set) and the other in the rear.

Where is the rear tank located?


Thanks!

Don't worry about the tank itself. The rear drain will be located close to the trailer hitch.

I have had a diesel for over 10 yrs and have always serviced my air dryer and never got any water out of the air tanks .

The rear air tank drain should be in the rear engine compartment right below the flywheel. That's where it is located on our coach. Search closely down in the flywheel area.

OK, found mine (2006 Diplomat)

It is at the very back of the coach (outside) right next to the bumper hitch.

Mine was plugged; used a nail to open the passage-way.
Turned valve and all the air came out. Saw no moisture.
