If they're not there's a pressure regulator mounted behind the engine start panel in the engine compartment. The maintenance manual recommends rebuilding the regulator every two years. Few do this. If you choose not to then the usual operator behavior is to let the engine idle until you see 60 psi on the dash gauges, at which point the tensioners should be inflated and you can then press the fast idle button. They are part of the accessory system so pressurizing your accessory tank should inflate the tensioner.

RE: Thomase On Board Air
So your saying those springs are filled by the engine or compressor and when you shut down there is a regulator that should hold the air. Again this depends on the regulator and air springs holding air .
