Thanks for posting this video. Already purchased the regulator for my compressor at Master Tools Repair. You saves me a couple hundreds I was about to spend on a new compressor!
I picked up a "dead" compressor at the dump from the scrap heap. $25 worth of parts and it was good to go. Compressors are a fairly simple device, so repairs aren't super hard. great tips Kevin!!!
First time viewer, great video, good solid common sense. I will watch for a while and see how you do. And as to age, that is tota;;y a state of mind. I will be 75 next month and still do quite well, 2 acres of grass to mow, 8 outbuildings,etc..
Well, how many times I shut the camera down... but even worse is the times I don't, and see myself during editing (cutting out "non-suitable" scenes!) But you are completely right in finding tools that are repairable. Sometimes secondhand tools (mostly depending in what period they were made) seem to have a better quality than a lot of new ones! Certainly the ones on a lesser budget. All the best from (a bloody hot) Portugal!
It has been pretty nice the last few days here, but the ten day forecast is quite hot. Welcome to summer in Wyoming. Thanks for popping in! Hope all is well on the lonely hill
I have the same compressor. About a year ago the belt went out changed it. All good. Recently I went to turn it on. NOTHING, dead. Checked the outlet, it's fine. The compressor will not turn on. Any help would be appreciated.
My thought would be moisture first. Is it inside a warm area? If not bring it inside for a day and try again. Maybe the motor has some dust or debris near the contact switch ... a couple ideas for ya friend. Let me know how it goes..
I have the same compressor,I bought it second hand without the belt, I ordered a pair of belts from Ebay and put it, but only worked around one week and the belt began to slip more and more until the motor burned the belt becas of the slipping, put again a new one and happened the same. What can be? The issue starts like if the motor cant handle the pressure above 60psi, it begins to stall but I think it has strength because at the end it burns the belt
You'r video was very helpful for me I had exact compressor it has same problem I got it fixed because I follow the steps that you did thank you so much wish you to be in a very good health always
You're right... the regulator manifold was a B^$%# to get off. Big problem though. What I ordered from Master Tool Repair was was not the same manifold as the original... not even a mail fitting from the manifold to the tank (even though I have the same model of compressor as you). If Master Tool can't get me the right part, my trusty old compressor is toast now.
Do you know the hole and thread size for the regulator to tank? I had a hard time getting mine off as well. It wouldn't budge and broke at the tank and I tried an E-Z Out, but it couldn't budge the broken stud. I finally drilled it the reminder out, now I have to chase the threads.
Just so you don't have to wait on the shipping, Harbor Freight has those gauges. I had to get a new one for my portable air tank. And by the way, did you guys get the house ?
@@MakinSawdust that does not work, I could have the output pressure at 60PSI and the compressor still goes to about 115, keeps running and won’t shut off.

The part is now obsolete. Is there any sort of replacement you would recommend? I don’t care about having the plastic cover on it

Welcome aboard! Thanks for stopping by Jeffery. I hope to live into my 70's or 80's and still have some solid thinking. I am glad to have you here.
What was the part # on it?
I have the very same problem with the same make and model compressor. Thanks for showing me how to repair ir and where to get the part!
Your welcome

That is a good question. I wish I could help you

Is there a part number for the tanks only?
Why didn't ya turn it on and show it getting pressor?whated to c that.

Bummer dude

I sure wish I would have saved the old regulator now, because I would have measured the thread pitch and diameter for you.
That was very satisfying. And I understand you leaving out the frustrating bit, believe me, I feel your pain! Good job all round mate. Thanks Kevin.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Glad you found the part you needed. Thanks for sharing. Take Care Hugs and Love to you and Billiejo
Great! Nice to bring back another old tool :)

nope. we are staying here and we will make a video soon explaining.
I ran $85 in groceries through Amazon on your link this week. Just an FYI. Hugs to you & Billie Jo 🏡
Thank you very much. I do have that specific model.
Glad I could help
Same compressor, but it won’t go over 112 PSI and won’t shut off. Now what??
turn the red regulator know to the left. it will reduce the pressure
@@MakinSawdust that does not work, I could have the output pressure at 60PSI and the compressor still goes to about 115, keeps running and won’t shut off.

Great information!
Awesome thank you so much. Very helpful
Your welcome!
TA DAA! Now you can get things blowed up real good!
Sounds like me! Many failed attempts. Solution was simple. All that more rewarding !
Thank you for this video. I'll soon be making this repair, and your video put me at ease with the process.
I am happy to do so. Thanks for watching.
You should have run it before and after to see the difference
I did, that is why I replaced the regulator
