Hi,
I have been driving my M929A2 more lately and got stuck in a traffic jam today. While sitting in traffic I was watching all the gauges and noticed something. If I left my foot on the brake pedal I would quickly lose primary air pressure. Is this correct? I realize that everytime the brakes are applied you use up air. But for some reason I thought the brakes would act like hydraulic brakes sitting in traffic. So, for example if I were stuck in traffic on a hill would I use the parking/spring brakes to stay put? Thanks in advance for any help on this topic and excuse my inexperience.
