So when I turn ON the air-comp, the solenoid closes the value. When I turn it off, the solenoid opens the valve. I can actually feel no air escaping while the motor is running. Turn it off, and the solenoid lets it open or opens it up somehow. I have no idea what's going on. I've unscrewed the...

Yeah other than the tank draining - I love it (eye roll). Seriously though, its nice and quiet and otherwise performs very well. I'm most upset about THEM not answering their own (advertised) tech support, warrenty support, EVEN "Sale" - nothing but a silly voicemail about how important my call...
