That air fitting on the compressor is junk I have had them break just from looking at them wrong. Love what you did with tapping it to accept normal pipe fitting.

I just wanted to pass a little knowledge, use permatex orange thread sealant, its a godsend! Its removable like the blue, but it holds the bolts great! It looks like you are out west, but if you are ever working in the rust belt, use marine grade anti seize. The normal silver stuff washes off. I like your channel!! I subscribed!!

If there is a failed injector and the compressor rattled off, the morons that own the truck are not taking care of it. The truck loping likely is not a new issue, and the driver, from the sounds of things, was too dumb to know what a proper running engine sounds like. Driver training these days must be a freaking joke, it seems more than half of the drivers on the road no nothing, hell I see drivers that don't even pre-trip their trucks before they just jump in and go, it makes me sick.
