before you change the compressor add a new check valve between it and the
tank. you can cut one in about a foot from the one in the flex hose near the
compressor, Viair uses a shuttle type valve and corrosion can cause it to
stick causing a leak back into the compressor. I use a low crack flapper
style, they seem to work very well.
