See if this helps. Go to the air dryer and take off the spin on filter. Reach in where the filter came off there will be a cardboard looking tube. Take this out and then screw the cartridge back on.

Drier is completely bypassed, compressor pumps straight into wet tank, still 30 psi

Did you try to adjust the governor on the firewall? On the air compressor head are bolts you can try to check on the unloader.

Mod. Remove the 911 from the title. Ill be heading that way shortly for a recovery.

He is safe and sound , still broken though but not on the side of the road . Looks like Wes is going to tow him home in the morning. Looks like it's the compressor

Is there a simp5782 fund to help offset some of these recovery costs?

That was very polite. Simp and I trade jabs, but in good spirit. He has touched every fastener on A1 series 923’s.

In this case, I would have pumped in air from an external source, such as a rental gasoline powered air compressor in the bed, or a 12v one running non-stop if the truck is relatively leak-free. Do as much slowing as possible via downshifting.

And that's the kind of guy Wes is, he'd give another member the shirt off of his back without having to ask for it.

Definitely the guy I'd want by my side in a crisis/critical situation.

Gas powered compressors were more than i offered to come get him for. Plus air lines and fittings. Even a small 110 and a generator was even more at harbor freight .
