    I have a older 26 gallon kobalt electric air compressor builds up about 80 psi and won't shut off does it need a piston gasket or something else?

    Lots of variables here. Is yours an oil-less compressor, or oiled? Single or twin cylinder? Single stage or two stage? I found my issue by holding my finger close to the intake of each cylinder. One cylinder was only sucking air which is what it’s supposed to do. The other was blowing back through the filter and would push my finger away from the intake port. Mine was just a gasket, but it could be the valve plate that has failed too. If you find your model number, you can probably find a parts diagram online for your compressor to get an idea of what may be faulty.

    I have the same unit and I am having trouble finding the top reed valve that goes under the thick plate on the top surface. My bottom reed valve is OK but the one on top is broken and caused the same symptoms as yours with the gasket problem. I used your numbers and found the plate ASSY on eBay but it does not come with the upper reed valve only the lower. Any help would be great.

    That thick plate was originally made with the reed valves riveted to it. The reeds are not available separately. The rivet style plate is no longer available. Later, it was made with the reeds screwed to the plate. To replace the reeds, you have to replace the entire thick plate. If you have the rivet style, you have to replace with the newer screw style plate but also replace the cylinder according to this site: aircompressorpartsonline.com/valve-plate-assy-wgaskets-010118-043-0207-p-4346.html

    My compressor starts working and builds pressure up to 150psi but sometimes during work it will not start and won't keep tank charged. Sometimes it turns on only for a few seconds then goes quiet. Sometimes I hears something that it wants to start like air going somewhere through the pipe for about 2 second and then quiets and stays like that. Fails to keep up pressure in tank when I use it. Pressure goes low as 50psi but compressor doesn't start. Then I had to open drain valve to release remaining air pressure in the tank. Disconnect it from AC power for few minutes and it starts working again build up to 150psi again. I don't hear any air leaks. What could be wrong?

    Sounds like an issue with the pressure regulator/switch.
