Hey man my truck cuts on and makes up to 30 to 60 psi and stops making air could it be my compressor ?

[@spiritperformancefactoryto9635]

I’d say it could be a leak somewhere or water in the tank. Typically if the compressor goes bad it won’t build

[@YZFR1mart]

Hi how do i delete the air compressor from my engine. Is the fuel pump drive different from the air compressor drive? I'm using the engines for a boat so don't want the compressor there. Thanks

[@spiritperformancefactoryto9635]

So unfortunately the way it’s set up you’ll need to have something made up as an adapter or just run the compressor with a pressure regulator to have on board air maybe you can use it for a lift pump for the haul seeing you could potentially utilize it

[@YZFR1mart]

@@spiritperformancefactoryto9635 thanks for the quick reply. . I don't think i need air on the boat to be honest. . I have asked someone else and they said i just need a spline to lovejoy adapter. As the air compressor is spline and fuel pump is jaw coupler. Does that sound right to you?

[@spiritperformancefactoryto9635]

Yeah that’s the adapter I was referring too lol, but the mounting of the pump is going to be the tricky part because it bolts to the back of the compressor and the bolt pattern isn’t exactly the same

[@YZFR1mart]

@@spiritperformancefactoryto9635 yeah i thought that. . There must be a different mounting plate as for use on generators and marine engines. . I'll strip it down though and see if its easy enough to line up and drill new holes. If not its back to the drawing board 😆

What fan clutch is that

[@spiritperformancefactoryto9635]

If I can remember correctly it’s an oem replacement from the dealer for an m series Cummins

[@ernierodriguez2197]

Hey man by chance if my air compressor went out totally would my truck not crank over

[@spiritperformancefactoryto9635]

Absolutely not, just wouldn’t build up air pressure. If it’s not cranking it’s the starter or something locked up internally

[@idirisesse5443]

How do you made this 45. Degree

[@spiritperformancefactoryto9635]

@@idirisesse5443 I used a vise to hold the wrench in place, flat, on the closed end. I used a propane torch to heat up the middle of the wrench. Then used a pair of channel lock pliers to bend it over about 90 degrees or close to it by eye then twisted it and pulled back up til it looked close. With heat you can pretty much make it how ever you want. Just don’t go to hot.
