When you order a new piston you should also get a new cylinder sleeve with it. I got mine as a kit with both. Very easy to swap parts and get it working properly.

Mine is similar, but I think it's about a 2hp. I've had it about 25 years. I always thought since mine was "oil-less" that it was a sealed bellows-style system and never looked into it It seems to take longer and longer every year to reach max pressure. Now that I see your video, I'll have to explore a little more. Thanks for sharing this. Very helpful!

To me that looks like a k-0058 cylinder sleeve would work on this unit, that also comes with a piston ring. I'm pretty sure you can still get that part.

Your cylinder not available problem. It's likely your piston / ring etc fit other cylinders which are still available but not be exact and won't be offered because of lawsuits. I've worked back from what parts I have which fit other units and successfully obtained workable pieces.

Richard Parker I think you’re right. The last one I put in it was stainless steel. I don’t know if there was something out of alignment or what. I put in 3 cooling fans, 2 pistons, and 1 piston and cylinder in 25 years. The first fan went out at 15 years. I still have ‘tis compressor the rod went out a few years after this repair. Parts are gettin harder to find. Some day I’ll pull it out of the bone yard and try to fix it maybe. Thanks for watching.

Thanks Dale, I have a 20 year old 4HP, 25 gal Craftsman, Looks a lot like yours. I used it 20 years ago running nail guns, etc. building my house. I cleaned the air filter and was using it again and it seem to run forever. would not shut off. Never got over 80 psi. I fixed the few minor air leaks at various connections. Today, I started it and went to the house to drink coffee and an hour later went back and found it still running but at only 40 psi. Let air out after checking all connections again. I took the plastic shroud off and started it, but with it running I cannot hear anything but the compressor. Turned it off and listen for any air leaks around the head. Nothing with it off. I had never ran it with the foam air filter our until today and I was expecting air to be sucket in. but it is blowing air out where the foam air filter should be. Is that normal? I can easily turn the fan by hand and see the piston going up and down. I guess time to take the head off and hopefully there is just a bad gasket there. Still wondering about the air coming out of the place where the foam air filter goes. Please let me know if this is normal and anything else you can think of. Going to hold off a little while until you possibly send a reply. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hi It sounds like there is something wrong with the valves in the head, they may need some cleaning. That's were I would start, then check the ring on the piston. It's just a plastic wiper. Good luck and let us know how it works out. Thanks for watching.

@@DaleHobbs39 Thanks for getting back to me. I took the head off and the compression ring at the top of the piston is ragged and tearing. About ¼ off the edge is missing. I have ordered a 2 pack of compression ring replacements, DAC 308, as shown in my owners manual. Hopefully this will get me back in the game. I also ordered a kit. More expensive, but it includes not only the new compression ring, but also a new sleeve for the piston, since mine sleeve is scored and show some signs of wear. Kit also includes a couple gaskets. First I will try just replacing the compression ring since I get two for only $12. If that only works for a while I will then try the whole new kit. New compression ring, new piston sleeve and gaskets. I was afraid to take off the head, since I do not have replacement gaskets, but finally decided I need to see what it looks like and ten go from there. Anyways thanks for the reply.

Hi Dale, Have a Sears Twin Cylinder Tank Compressor. Dedicated 20Amp line. Compressor starts, fills and shuts off like it should. The problem happens when pressure drops to where it needs to rebuild pressure. Motor starts, labors hard for a few seconds and blows fuse. What would be the part I should check or replace. Compressor is lightly used, purchased 1980. Model is 106.175541. Thanks for your response!

Hi Dale, I am not finding an unloader valve. Mine is 80 on and 100 off, Would it do any good to remove the unloader valve I have on the side of Furnas pressure switch and somehow clean it out? Its sat for probably 33 years but wasn't used all that much when I was running it. Finding unloader valves with 80 on and 100 off seems almost impossible. Any thoughts would help.
