AIR VENTING OUT OF THE CRANKCASE

by ALLEN
(IRVINE, KY.)

THE PRESSURE REGULATOR CONTACTS STUCK OVER THE HOLIDAY AND NOW I HAVE AIR VENTING OUT OF THE CRANKCASE. IT IS A SPEEDAIRE, MODEL 5Z687A2.






Bill wonders...

Howdy Allen.

If you mean that the pressure switch has stuck on, and you have an excess of pressure in your tank, that's blowing out ... somewhere, then get your pressure switch replaced, right away.

If you mean that the pressure relief valve has opened since the system is over-pressurizing, same answer, replace the pressure switch.

I don't know what you mean by the pressure regulator contacts...unless you have an electronic regulator, there are no contacts in a pressure regulator to stick.

Thanks for writing in.

Bill
