Love your content man appreciate how you edit to get as much info in without unnecessary in-betweens. Question if I may, have a wheel barrow air compressor like these. Started to shut off when hot and when almost filled at 125 psi. Over time once started would stop the compressor pulley all together. Took inlet hose off at compressor worked perfectly fine bought new pilot check valve unloader. Put It on. Same problem. Compressor pulley stops within second of starting. Only thing I did was put the old unloader value from old unit onto new unit since new unit came without it? Any ideas? Thanks for your time!

This is by far the best video I’ve found. Thanks! I just cleaned everything, I’ll try it out tomorrow.

SAE30ND has several different fluid properties than an ISO68 hydraulic fluid.

It enters through the open bolt holes that secure the guard. One unit was so full that I could not pull the rope as if engine was seized. They leave them out in the rain, usually in the back of a pick-up truck. Hope this helps ☺☺☺☺☺ Regards; Steve @ Save-on Tools and Equipment Repair

Hey man have you had a air compressor with a pump leaking oil at the base? If so could you do a video explaining why they would leak and such

Hello! I'm working on a central pneumatic gas powered wheelbarrow air compressor, I 've replaced the pilot unloaded valve 'cause it bad, but now before it builds air up to 135psi bleed valve pops off. Any ideas???

I have a metabo gas air compressor with a Honda 160 engine. Just recently installed brand new carburator, spark plug cable, spark plug and coil, new on/off switch, new fuel filter, new fuel line. Also cleaned out the unloader check valve. It starts up like a champ cuts off like it should when tanks get filled up. BUT once I start to use the air instead of it starting back up it completely dies! I rebuilt two gas air compressors (metabo and central pneumatics) and on both I removed the gas tanks to clean them out. And both air compressors will not rev back up to fill the tanks they both just die!

I have exactly the same valve but exactly the opposite issue mine kicks up but won't kick down and sounds like popcorn as it's trying to kick down my compressor head is getting worn and sends a healthy amount of oil through the valve not sure if that's causing an issue or possibly damaging it but what would you suggest? The valve itself is maybe a year and a half old

Yeah I am trying to figure out how to add something to a Kohler k482s 18hp motor that will be hooked up to a gardner-denver 1955 ado massive compressor pump, I mean I could hook them up and run the compressor pump but would have to manually stand there and watch the gauge to shut the motor off, not sure how to go about installing Something to either stop or idle the motor down when the tank is full? both vintage items trying to work with here

Great video! Can you tell me why my gas powered compressor shuts off whenever I start using the air? It starts right up at high rpm then rpm goes down once it is filled. As soon as the air gets to about 110psi instead of the compressor rpm going up to fill tanks again it shuts off!

Do you have a part number for the throttle control piston? Not the bullwhip control Thank you kindly

Question. I have an identical compressor. When I bought it it had a flat head Briggs that didn’t run. I rebuilt the carb and got it going. When it would try to idle its self back up it would die. I cleaned the vent on check valve didn’t change anything. Then I thought maybe the Briggs was worn out. (It wasn’t very snappy with the throttle). So I bought a Honda clone. And after installing it I still have the same problem.

I have this compressor and other day it just shut off and would not crank again. What could be the problem? I had just filled the gas and Oil level is good. Thanks!

This is a really great detailed video. Thanks. Mine isles down but the belt stops catching on the pulleys. They spend but the belt stays still causing it to burn. Any idea how to fix? Thanks!

@@EliminatorPerformance Excellent video and to the point. Bravo! The number of air filters is generally a more accurate way to determine if it's a single stage or dual stage. If the number of air filters match the number of cylinders, then it's a single stage compressor, like all the ones in your video. In dual stage compressors, the air will pass through one air filter, get compressed, and this compressed air is pumped directly into the the second cylinder and compressed further, upwards of 175 psi and are more specialized. Using 2 cylinders in a single stage compressor is to reduce the recovery time, not increase the pressure.

Do you help troubleshoot?

Mine shuts off and has absolutely nothing to do with anything you just covered. Shuts off when going back to compress. Would that be carb issues? Cleaning usually works but not this time and spark plug is clean. Reckon I need a new carb?

What dose it mean if the is air constantly coming out of the exhaust screen once you start the engine the air is coming out the exhaust and tank only builds to 20 psi because of it and even if you shut the engine off it will drain the tank

what State you at? nice video

Ontario Canada!

My compressor runs, but will not cut out unless I manually trip the unloader valve. But, then air leaks around the top of the unloader valve lever, and I believe that is what's preventing the throttle from idling down automatically, as it will not build any more pressure once that valve begins leaking around the lever. Is there a way to fix that leak at the top of the valve, or should it leak there?

@cristianhdez7557

2 жыл бұрын

Same problem here, did you fix it ?

Do not operate the throttle lever manually (I don't even know why they put that lever there). Near-ocean operation and offshore operation rusts the pivot points involved in that throttle linkage. Every time you check fuel, tap on the throttle lever and the pilot valve to ensure pilot valve operates on its own. If you tap or bang on those when you suspect the compressor is not cycling, the lever has rusted at its pivot points or the pilot to throttle linkage is caught up. When the pilot vales become as wonly as dude shows here in this video you do not want to use the compressor in a pinch or a lucrative situation (it will fail you again). Buy a new pilot valve and save yourself... These are issues I know like the back of my hand. I understand the video is about other issues. Just wanted to add a little sumsum. Hope it helps!

If it doesn't have a model number on the placard, it'll be near impossible to identify. Go by the color of the tank. That's about all I can offer as help.

I have a Honda GX160 that starts with a starter and it runs, then it randomly shuts off but it starts right back up. If I unplug the cut off Wire to the coil it'll run and not stop. But it won't shut off unless you put The Wire back together like sensing it's low in oil, but it's not low in oil. Should I change oil??? Why is it just shutting off? Bad coil?

@EliminatorPerformance

4 ай бұрын

I would start with an oil change, and if it has the low oil sensor I would test that by unplugging it, if it keeps running longer than usual than that's the issue, the sensor itself. If it keeps shutting off, you've eliminated the sensor and can plug it back in and move onto something else. It sounds like an electrical issue, cutting spark, not a fueling issue. Also, if you unplug the kill wire and it keeps running, it means the coil itself is likely ok. I would also look for insulation chewed off or cut on the main kill wire somewhere, I've seen mice take a small bite, and expose the wire, then when you're using it, the bare wire touches the engine and cuts spark to the coil.

Your tank pressure regulator may be set high enough, and you're using enough air that the tank never fills completely. At some point, the safety valve would blow off and release extra pressure.
