... need to drain the intercooler ...

[Marauder386]

Okay, I am going to remove/replace the air compressor for the ride height. This is located UNDERNEATH DR's system. I need help and guidance on the safest way to drain it off so I can remove the box. Help greatly appreciated in advance !

It is very easy just give me a call.

Will do that tomorrow Dennis. Right now I have compressor unbolted from donor RoadPig but I cannot figure out how to unplug the backside of the unit from the air line that runs back to the airbags...:mad2:

Do you see an orange-coloured ring around the point where the air line enters the black-coloured canister (dryer) mounted to the pump? Use a flat-blade screwdriver or similar tool to push the ring in toward the dryer while pulling on the air line - that should get the line out.

Woooo yeah ! That worked .... compressor in hand right now. Will go in tomorrow after a PhonCon with Dennis to educate myself on draining of intercooler...

Take outlet hose off of IC water pump and turn the pump on.
Let the pump pump it all out.
Refill.
Done.
