HF compressor troubleshooting and repair
I've got a 3 gal pancake compressor that rides
with me in the van. Today I put on a tire that I'd bought at garage sale, and got the compressor out to air it up. The compressor normally goes up to 100 PSI and shuts off, today it runs up to 20 PSI. So, I take the cover apart, and take the cylinder head off. Put in some new 10w30 oil, to relubricate the permanant lube bronze bushing. Well, we're up to 60 PSI, and I can reinflate the tire. After a couple phone calls to friends, I finally find the problem which is..... how many others had the same thing? -- .. Christopher A. Young Learn about Jesus www.lds.org .. |
