I have a 2 hp twin tank Mech Power compressor, Model # M90002. It does not have many hours on it. I bought it new for odd jobs and pumping up tires. Probably not more than fifty.
It runs fine and then it will not build up pressure. It just stays around 25 pounds and runs and runs. I have found when I took off the head that there are two very thin pieces of metal over the holes in the "block" I'll call it. They get out from where they belong and then the comp. will not operate properly. I can put them back and it runs OK, but then they move again and it's the same.
Can anyone tell me the problem here? And of course how to fix it.
Also, I'm not sure that I'm putting them back correctly. The manual is not clear.
Any help will be appreciated.
