Marc,

Make that two. My two year old Thomas quit building pressure though it runs. I re-installed the old one and now I have air. I have looked for rebuild kits to no avail. If you search on Grainger, you can find it but $$$$.

What kind do you have now?

I got our Gast compressor from Grainger. Get the extended warranty if you get one there. They are great to work with if compressor starts to fail to build air pressure. Simple to exchange or they will drop ship new one to your location. I now am running a check valve downstream from the desicant/dryer, so hopefully the compressor will last a little longer by keep higher engine compressor pressure off of the Gast heads.

Not sure of the name, but mine is the dental type compressor located in the generator box. I purchased a new on on eBay for pennies on the dollar. Carry it as a spare.

I replaced my Gast about a year ago and notice that the new one had a capacitor on top of the motor, which the old one did not. I hope that will enable it to last longer??

I have had two Thomas 2688TE44/38 rebuilt by DOCS (Darling's one-stop compressor services) in Sheboygan, WI. The cost was $280.00 and the service is very professional. [email protected] phone 920-694-0273.

They rebuild several brands and sell rebuild kits as well.

I keep them as back-ups.
