Hi,
I have a weird issue with my – barely used almost new compressor, and I don’t know if it’s normal or not.
If the tank pressure is higher than regulator output pressure, there is a leak. A constant hissing sound.
For example the regulator is set to 80 PSI.
The tank is charged to 120 PSI, then slowly leaks.
If I turn the knob to 120, the leak stops.
If I let it charge all the way up, I have to turn the reglator pressure all the way up to stop the leaking sound.
This is not normal, right?
