Today I replaced the output stage on the air compressor given to me by my coworker Brian<\/a>. Beyond a small handful of brass fittings I replaced the regulator, added a filter, and adjusted the automatic shutoff.

There is a leak in the upper compression fitting on the line between the pump and tank (seen on the right here<\/a>) which loses about 2 psi per minute, so I’ll probably replace that with a flexible line. The hard shutoff which is built into the manifold also leaks very slightly, but as I don’t want to spend time finding a replacement I’ll let it be.<\/p>\n

With the purchase of a rather nice Goodyear hose, blower handle and tips, brass quick disconnects, and a tire inflator from Harbor Freight<\/a>, I think I’ve got everything for it that I need. It would be nice if it held pressure, but as I don’t intend to store it pressurized I’m not too concerned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
