Is it appropriate to reply to an older thread? I am a new member, and I have to say, at least 3 or the 4 immediate problems I have had with our new to us A/S have been answered by just reading around these threads, Thanks! I have what I think is a similar problem to the one in this thread. We purchased a 1976 A/S Tradewind and towed it to a family deer lease. Almost to the end of our trip, the two streetside tires blew out. We did not have any spares, and were only a mile down a dirt and rock road to our lease, so we kept going. I noticed a trail of water comming a copper pipe through the belly pan in front of the wheels, on the street side. We tried to fill the tanks, but water just flows out that drain. My question is, is that just a drain? Nothing should be atatched to it? Or could the rough and very bumpy trip, have triped the pressure regulator open? It did not leak at all until the tires blew.
Thanks
