Well gang, I did what Richard and Tom suggested. I measured the output of the air compressor. Nil, nada, nothin! I put my finger on the air tube outlet of compressor. Could feel no pressure at all. However if I plug the input side I can hear the compressor load up. So...My bet there is a gasket or something wrong on inside of air pump.
re-installed the spare that I took out cause it looked too grungy. Turns out the new one (two year old) that looks good doesn't work. The old grungy one still works great. (go figure).
It is a Thomas 2677TE44/38 (from box). Has anyone rebuilt one of these things? (Motor is fine, just the air part is problematic). If so, where would I go for a rebuild kit, or should I just buy a new one?
