Is this worth tearing into? Could something be gummed up, not letting
air flow to wherever? I'm generally good at fixing things but I've
never been inside an air tool.
All advise appreciated. BTW, the gun does not have that many hours on
it. 9 years with maybe changing two or three sets of wheels per year.

your compressor may need to be drained of condensation. Everytime you
start using your air tool, put a a few drops of air tool oil into the
air fitting hole. Don't do this with a DA sander.

Why?


Dang. I was just gonna try to fix a DA I got with a bunch of stuff. Air
goes through, but no rotation.
