Hello,
I have looked for the wrench size needed to get the connector that feeds into the air bag off, but no luck. Please can anyone tell me the size i need. None of my wrenches fit the nut.... I assume that it is an imperial size needed and not metric.

cheers and beers

That should be 1-1/16

If it is metal it is likely a 9/16. If it is the original plastic then I would use a pair of standard slip pliers very gingerly as it appears to be designed to hand tighten. The stock plastic nut on the air line only keeps the hose from backing off of the fitting as an o ring on the hose seals ( I use seals loosely ;) ) the connection. The adapter between the hose and the fill port of the bag should be 9/16

I'm not sure which nut you are trying to loosen but nothing on the coach is metric.
