I have a Craftsman Oiless Compressor that won’t fill. Today while it was running I heard a pop or a distinct change in the sound of the compressor while filling. The tank was taking longer to fill than it did when ir was new.
It fills to about 40-50 pounds and then runs continually.
This tool has served me well even if it is a little noisy.
Is there a kit to repair or a conversion to an oiled unit?

youre probably gonna need a cylinder, piston and rod.

ive rebuilt mine a couple times over the years. I think I got parts from ereplacementparts.com

TC that makes sense, while it took longer than it used to fill from when it was new. The popping sound was likely the issue, after that it wouldn’t fill as usual.
