Compressor Problem

[egi_tactical]

For my very first post here, I will shamelessly ask for help.

The compressor on my M35A2 (White Multifuel engine) was running fine. Suddenly, it won't come on anymore. The belt is fine. Any suggestions on where to look for a problem?

Looks like the air system grimlins are hard at work. Me too.

"Come on"? No pressure in either tank? Is this correct?

The compressor and air system was all fully functional a week ago. Suddenly, when I start the deuce, the compressor does not kick on. I can hear it clearly when it does (or when it did), and it doesn't start at all. No pressure in the tanks.

Dual cyl air comp? I would pull the bleeder valves off and see if something is gunked up in there. Could be your air gov on the firewall is stuck too. Might want to clean it out. There is 3 kinds you might have Grindletube(hope I spelled it right, sorry if not) has posted what you need to clean with diagrams.
