maybe because it idles at a preset r.p.m. DUHHHHHH.

What are they idling them at? Seems to me that they have it set at about 1200 rpm's.

I had a Western Express park next to me last week and his air dryer spit every 10 seconds, The whole fricking night.

it could be due to a parked regeneration. if not, and it goes all throughout the night, i'd be pissed off, too.

There were about 5 Swifts in Alabama parked next to each other all idled up. I dont think they could have all been regenerating at same time, At least they were bothering each other that night

Wide open? So, are they sitting there with it smashed to the floor? Seems like a good way to thrash a motor. :lol:
How fast are they idling?

I love the sound of a set of straights, when idling at about 1100. Oh that is such a sweet sound.
