This is stumping me, I cant figure it out.
So my sears 33 gal 120v compressor has a rating of 8.6cfm @40psi and 6cfm @90psi. The issue is I dont seem to be getting the same oomph it used to have. All I changed was the quick connect on the compressor side. Thought it was the fitting so I swapped it again no change. Tried different hoses, different air tools, same result.
Whats happening is the air seems to have that nice initial kick and then falls on its face with little air volume coming out. Doesnt matter how much psi is in the tank or what I have the regulator set to. Either you stop and let it catch up or you get less performance. Doesnt matter if its running or not.
I can physically hear some sorta noise like the tanks catching up on if I let go of whatever device Im using and then hit it again.
I dont get it..bad fitting on the tank end? If I open the ball valve on the bottom it comes FLYING out with force. Maybe theres a blockage?
