caragraph<p>anyone out there who can help me get this thing back together? It looks like the O ring side goes down, but I can't remember the orientation of the reeds/D ring. Air filter is to the left (output?) and feed tubing to tank is on the right, but . . . beyond that is beyond me</p><p><a href="https://lor.sh/tags/DIY" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DIY</span></a> <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/MechanicallyInclined" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MechanicallyInclined</span></a> <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/HomeImprovement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HomeImprovement</span></a> <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/AirCompressor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AirCompressor</span></a></p>
caragraph<p>Okay, I'm completely flummoxed. The motor is working, it's pushing air through the air filter housing, but according to the gauges, I don't have any pressure and the tank isn't filling. I've taken the intake manifold off, cleaned everything up, refitted the seals, and put it back together.</p><p>Then I made sure the copper tubing from the output valve wasn't blocked and put that back.</p><p>I'm still humming along with no apparent result. Any small engine repair or mechanically minded entities out in the fediverse who can help me figure this out?</p><p><a href="https://lor.sh/tags/SmallEngineRepair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SmallEngineRepair</span></a> <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/FixIt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FixIt</span></a> <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/MechanicallyInclined" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MechanicallyInclined</span></a> <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/Help" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Help</span></a></p>
