Depending on the Air Dryer, the purge valve can be serviced with a kit of parts (about $35) and a few minutes under the rig.
It is basically a new valve, three bolts, with O Rings for a Bendix AD-9.
The 150 PSI seems high. Mine is barely to 120psi. Most are at 125PSI. Perhaps there is a gauge problem.
Thanks for the input I do not know about the pressure I guess it just never occurred to me that it could be too high.

It is a bendix dryer I bought a service kit a couple of years ago and changed the media, oring and bleeder valve just as a PM issue. I don't think it will be too hard to get it straight just wanted all the info I could get going in.
