    Ok Gents Thanks for all the help with my United States air compressor. I installed the new check valve and no more leaks. This thing is air tight like a WW2 German U-boat.....lol. Definitely worth the $300 I paid for it. Got the check valve on ebay for $35. Just love the stuff made years ago...

    Got another question. Got a small air leak. In 10 minutes losses 5 psi. I sprayed soapy water on ALL thread fittings and no bubbles anywhere. See attached pictures. I circled the 3/4 check valve in the one picture...could that check valve be leaking air back up into the cylinder head. How can I...
