Hi from an Atlantean owner!
 
Hi all, im Mike, im from Wigan, im 20 and i own a Leyland Atlantean with an ELC Body.



Bought her in November 2013 for ONE POUND, yes you saw that, ONE POUND.


Restoration has begun into the Green and Cream livery, were having a few problems with the air system as i am after an Unloader valve for it.



Thanks for reading! :)

Cheers G, Couldn't find one for an Atlantean, only a tiger i think theres a slight different in the threads.

Is the valve separate or is it mounted directly on the compressor?

If separate then the difference will be pipe fittings.

Apart from governed pressure setting, most unloader valves should be interchangeable (even if from different suppliers).
It's a pretty simple function valve - air below a given pressure no signal, air above that pressure then signal to compressor.
