Default RE: RE:

Thanks, for the reply. I found the problem and now I can put 150 psi into the air tank. The air line attached to the compressor had a massive air leak. I didn't notice it due to the noise of the compressor. The "Spring Air" retracks require a minimum of 100 psi to operate correctly and with a full tank, 150 psi, I can get seven full cycles. Another problem surfaced after I solved the air leak. Another air leak sufaced in the control valve. I'm using a ROBART VCR valve and it has an air leak. After I discovered this leak I replaced the valve with another ROBART VCR and it leaked too. Both these valves are brand new and both leak air. Is this normal or are they both defective?
