Compressor turns on but doesn't build pressure
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Mike, Thank you for the question. The most common reason for a compressor's inability to reach pressure is a defective reed valve. The Reed Valves are sold as part of the Valve Plate With Lower Gasket. Thank you for your inquiry, good luck with this repair!

  • Donald from BRYAN, TX
  • Really Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers
Disassemble plastic housing around compressor unit using appropriate tools. Remove the four bolts from the compressor head using a 5/16 nut driver. Carefully remove head assembly including airline. Remove bolt through rod bearing with Allen wrench.

Reassemble with new rod and piston assembly. Best to use blue locktite on bolt through rod bearing when reassembling. Make sure to torque all bolts to specs listed.
