Yeah, you may be right. I guess it just bothers me that I cant find the
right combination of repair parts. 

 

I DID look at getting a whole new compressor head, but that is about what it
would cost for a complete unit [~$2-400].

All the best,

Al, 

We are in an age where fixing parts isn't the best option all the time.  I
bet you can get a whole new compressor heads (compressor minus motor and
tank) for less than the kit/time will cost you. 

Of find a compressor with a burnt up motor and you can get it cheap and swap
out the head. 

Just a thought.
