Rod I have been dealing with a similar problem this past week. What I
thought was a leaking compressor turned out to be a worn out
compressor.
It won't pump up past 60 psi. Anyway before I knew I had a worn out
compressor I purchased an SMC AK2000-02 check valve
http://www.flo-products.com/floprod/smcval2ak.html I installed the
check
value immediately after the compressor.
I also purchased a second check value and am thinking of installing it
in
front of the oiler. The idea being if anything happens to the air supply
(blown line) when the doors are up, they will stay up.
Any thoughts or comments?
