I have checked everthing per your site and still can't get this craftsman 1hp 3gal 125psi to get over 10 psi

Hi Malcolm. When you say you checked everything, did you actually open the intake valve housing to check the integrity of the valves, and pull the head apart to check for gasket leaks, since these are often the cause?

If these are beyond your interest or abilities, you need to take your compressor to a shop to get the problem diagnosed and fixed.

Cheers,
