Ok guys I've got a situation that I could use some guidance on... I recently bought a 1988 International S1900 (dt466) dump to use around the farm and whatnot. Today I ran a load down the road and on my way back the truck lost power and then quit. I suspect a major engine failure. Here's my dilemma: I used all the air flat towing this thing off the main road to a pull off close to my farm. Now the brakes are locked on with no way for me to build pressure to release them. What is the usual plan when this happens? Sorry I am new to air brakes.
I would like to get enough air back into it to finish flat towing it to my shop once the sun comes back up. I was thinking either rig up something to spin the air pump or use an air compressor or portable air tank to get air into it... am I on the right track?
