No, Rob, I guess that you are slipping. The older tanks that fit up front were about a gallon in size. The one that you are referencing is the one that sits in the middle of the GMC in a cabinet and that was for the Electrolevel series.

Emery,

I'm confused!

I thought this one is for the up front Power Level suspension:

http://www.appliedgmc.com/prod.itml/icOid/686

And this one is for the middle of the GMC Electrolevel series:

Yes, you are correct. I did not look at the second one on his site so I thought that the one you referenced was the small one.
But isn't the one up front about 1 gallon in size?

My GMC has the small one.

Let's make sure we're talking about the Electro Level Series I systems - the Series II (later models) didn't use a tank. Yes?

I do not bet on my own words that come out of my mouth or anything.
Days of telling lies are now catching up to me.
I told Grace it was 6 inches, but it was 5.5".

That is why so many women are bad at math. Men have been telling them that it is 6".

Guys,

To get a bit further off topic; there is a British program that is shown
here; it is called "Embarrassing Bodies."

CAUTION: this website discusses all kinds of medical problems and the videos
do contain explicit pictures of sexual problems.

Here's the link:

http://www.channel4embarrassingillnesses.com/

The stuff on the website is the SAME as what is broadcast!

Can you imagine that being shown in the USA???

Correct.

Electro Level II systems have no airtank(s) and very little pneumatics. They do have electrical controls.

Electro Level (I) systems have a small airtank. They also have almost as much pneumatics as the power Level AND almost as much Electronics as the EL2.

Power Level systems have a larger airtank and no electrical controls.

Note that the EL2 cannot provide air for supplemental uses like air horns or pneumatically controlled towd brakes.
