Scott,
Did you check the valve stems on the air tank and on the compressor?? I
have found those leaking and had to replace the cores. Also I found that
if I don't shoot silicone lubricant into the intake of the compressor (I
have had the Hadley electric compressor now for 20 years) from time to
time that air will lead out of there.
