I bought another Compressor for sandblasting my old Cat iron before it is painted. It is an Ingersoll Gyro Flo w/4-53 Detroit. Is there anyone here on the forum who has had experience with one of these old compressors? This one is pressuring up to 185 lbs and blowing the relief. I replaced a small regulator that is supposed to go to the idle control that operates the unloader. But it still over pressures the system.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
