Russ,

To your original questions.

One, I have not been able to figure out which position the switch needs to be in to put more weight on the drive wheels. My coach appears to do the same thing in both the up and down positions. I have wondered if I needed to put in in leveling mode when using the switch. I will try that next.

About the issue of how air pressure is controlled in the tag bags. There are two answers I know of. The first is that on some coaches Newell used two "six packs" of HWH pressue solenoids in the back. The six pack for the tag has a pressure regulator on the air feed into it. That regulator controls the pressure in the tags. The second answer is that on some coaches, mine for example, only one six pack was used. The air pressure in the drive bags is the same as the tag bags.
