Very clear, complete descriptions. Thanks!

Great job thanks

Nice, good that you could get replacement parts! Fixing something is a lot better than buying new.

Nice video! I have the Porter Cable with the same issue. I’m going to give this a shot.

Good job @DIYApprentice. I followed your instructions with a Porter Cable C2006 Pancake compressor using gasket kit

Great job, my compressor is leaking in the same spot. Just ordered the kit from Amazon - thanks for the link as well. Like others, I was going to scrap it until I saw this. But please use a kneeling pad (my knees were killing me just watching this!)

I have to do the same thing to mine. I have the parts. Wish me luck.

This is great video to watch but horrible leak

[@mikemaj8467]

Nice job! Was the large o-ring the point of failure? Having difficulty finding the link to the replacement parts. I have the same Hitachi nut driver and have had for over 20 years. I replaced the switch 10 years ago. Still works great.

Hello, just wondering, I have a newer craftsman ( same thing) Does the rebuild kit come with a piston ring ( or O-ring) that is replaceable? Reason I ask is because mine was leaking when it was at a certain piston stroke position. I was able to fix it but not sure how long it will last. I ended up putting Vaseline on the inside of the piston wall and it seems to have fixed it for at least now.

My compressor does not charge more than 80psi, it continues to work, it does not charge and it does not turn off.

[@johnnygrellhesl4316]

Please give me the part number to the parts you used to repair your compressor.

Mine is leaking but unfortunately in a different spot.
