40. Q. What pressure is obtained in the parasite reservoir?

A. The same as that in the main reservoir, when the main reservoir

pressure is fifteen pounds greater than that in the brake pipe.

41. Q. What will prevent the charging of the parasite reservoir, and

what should be done?

A. This may be caused by the feed valve being improperly adjusted,

sticking in open position or leakage of main reservoir air past the

valve to the feed valve pipe and governor top.
