We have a new-to-us Itasca Navion, and I'm exploring the mechanical bits. I went to check that my new tire pressure gauge would fit the fill valves on the tires today, and am confused about the dual rear wheels. There's a fill valve sticking out from behind the outside tire, through one of the holes in the wheel; no sign of any other fill valve there. The inside wheel is inaccessible, the center of the wheel being filled with the disc brakes. Does this one fill valve fill both tires?
There should be two fill valves - one for each tire, unless someone replaced the two with just one - which is a bad idea (because if one tire has a leak, both will go flat).
If there is a wheel cover (wheel simulators), remove it to make sure the fill valve is not behind it.
