  1. You would like KT3406E on YouTube as well then. Lots of nice builds.
  2. Ahhh ok, yea typically when air dryer cartridges/filters get plugged truck won’t build air. With the head gasket on the compressor that would show up in the cooling system. I’ll step back and watch now. Looks like you and hayseed got this.
  3. What has you thinking it’s not building air? The fact that gauge just says 20 psi? Do these systems have one way check valves at the tank like others and it’s bad? Do you have an air dryer? I’m really trying here with a s system I don’t know.
  4. Even bad compressors will build air. Try what 67rModel said and hook a gauge to the tank and see what it says?
  5. Are these cooled by coolant? Possible head gasket failure?
  6. Yes, check the intake piping to the compressor as well. Start there and then work your way back. You can pry get the unloader valves out and lube them up too
  7. There are unloader valve kits available for your compressor. When you had the hose off was it pumping air good? Make sure discharge line is free of blockages/kinks too.
  8. Here’s a quick vid on how unloaders valves work.
  9. Correct, however for the amount of time this thing has sat theres a good chance the valves could be sticking. Also to add to the fact I highly doubt these have air dryers so all the sludge could just be from no one ever draining tanks and sitting. Compressor will always pass moisture and some oil. Also a good chance the compressor is shit, but there are a few simple checks to do before condemning a compressor. You would know a lot more about this compressor and air system then me though.
  10. I see alot of CT roll off trucks. Must have been for that set back axle for the tighter turning radius.
  11. Honestly I’d take one. Never seen one anywhere though. However I never been to a jazzy show either.
  12. Sheesh you really have it out for that poor lady lol….I believe their is a significant age gap between the two, who knows what that lady may have looked like in her 20s? Age does happen to all of us….
  13. Haha it does, just a lot different. what the hell? She looks happy as shit to have it. Looks like a leg off the leopard lady that was a hot topic earlier.
  14. Im not familiar with this compressor but if it has unloader valves they could be sticking open.
  15. Run the truck for like 10 min then hold a piece of cardboard a few inches from the discharge fitting of the air compressor. If the compressor is passing oil there will be a big spot on the cardboard. Speckles of light oil is normal. This test isn't accepted anymore. However it is an easy field test for owners to do. Bendix likes to use a cup with markings on it now and involves several tank draining’s over a period of time.
  16. BOBWhite, your quite the Cat guy huh?
  17. Is that black chick carrying a lamp?
  18. I see what you mean now, disregard.
  19. Maybe it was a jazzy/hover round show?
  20. Would those years be a little late for a tip turbine? I think it’s just the way they clocked the compressor housing for the display.
