Discharge line blockage

Check for freeze up in the discharge line.

Check low spots and eliminate any traps in the discharge line.

Inspect and repair compressor discharge port and clear any line 
restrictions. Replace damaged lines as necessary.

Check for carbon build-up. If carbon has built up, make sure cooling 
lines are not kinked or restricted. If carbon has built up in the 
discharge line, replace the line.

Inlet line kinked or restricted

Inspect the compressor air induction line for kinks and restrictions. 
Repair or replace as necessary.

Governor malfunction or 
misadjustment

surface of compressor.

Air dryer purge valve stuck open or 
leaking

Check for air dryer malfunction. Refer to air dryer manufacturer’s 
service instructions.

Chafed or worn discharge line

Replace faulty sections of discharge line.

Loose or leaking air line connections

Verify all connections are secure.

Tighten to vehicle specifications where necessary.

Inspect port threads for damage. If damage is extensive, replace 
cylinder head.

Damage to compressor valves and/or 
valve seats

Replace the cylinder head.

Leaking or malfunctioning internal 
pressure relief valve

Replace the cylinder head.

Noisy air compressor

Loose drive hub

Loose accessory drive coupling

Check fit of drive coupling.

Ensure hub is completely seated and crankshaft nut is tight.

Inspect crankshaft for damage — replace compressor if crankshaft is 
damaged.

None of the above, but condition 
persists

Replace the compressor.

Broken connecting rod or 
crankshaft

Oil starvation to crank pin or front main 
bearing

Check oil pressure. Verify oil passage is free of obstructions. Make 
necessary repairs.
