  1. Hi all,We started the Cruiseliner for the first time in 7 months today and it started first turn of the key....but it wont build air pressure over 20psi.When the engine is shut down the air can be heard leaking back through the compressor.Im thinking its the unloader valves are stuck.My question is does the compressor head have to be taken off to clean them or is there some other way to clean them? I think its a Midland compressor.Thanks Paul
