    Unloader Issues?

    The parts shouldn't cost too much. If I have any more issues I am going to just replace everything. Local truck shop said the gaskets and seals may not be readily available as the dealer would rather sell you a rebuilt compressor. Good luck.

    Unloader Issues?

    No part numbers. I took the unloader to an auto parts store and ended up with a gasket sheet and cut my own. I didn't replace anything else. I cleaned everything up and lubed the moving parts. I had my unloader stick on me before so the copper colored slider got special attention. All the seals...

    Unloader Issues?

    It leaks much less (just a little foam on one side, no bubbles) and seems to kick on less often. It took a while to get a normal run with the CTIS topping off the tires. I think the compressor/ unloader issue is pretty much solved for my truck. It pumps better than it ever has. I think I have...

    Unloader Issues?

    I rebuilt mine today and will test it tomorrow. It was doing the same as yours, constantly kicking back on. I will let you know if I finally got it sealed up and if the situation changes.

    Unloader Issues?

    I temporarily relocated the fuel return line out of the way but that is all. I am just replacing and sealing the gasket in mine because it leaks out of the housing. I have no clue what parts you are going to need to replace. Did you spray it with soapy water and see if your housing is leaking?

    Unloader Issues?

    I wonder what is different. I could not get the rear bolts out seperately. I tried everything. Since I am going to tear mine apart again I will give it another go.

    Unloader Issues?

    My unloader leaks like a sieve but will still keep up with one emergency glad hand open. The compressors pump very well. Have you sprayed it with soapy water to see if yours is leaking also? The unloader leaking could cause the issues you are experiencing as it sounds similiar to what mine is...

    Unloader Issues?

    The two bolts on the side hold the intake line on. I am not sure what part needs to be replaced. There are two springs inside there, gaskets, and seals. The unloader will come out but you have to take the top off the compressor too. This includes draining the coolant (the two lines coming in...

    Unloader Issues?

    Spray your compressor with soapy water. My unloader leaks like a sieve even after tearing it apart twice (new gaskets once, gaskets and gasket sealer second time). I am not sure if it slows down at a certain pressure though but my truck seems to be doing the same thing. I think the non-steel...
