Ian, I take it that this didn't always happen, and that even though you have replaced the popping out seal with a new seal of the same size and manufacture, the problem persists?

That being the case, all I can think of is that the crank area is being pressurized, and that, to me, points to the piston seals leaking.

Other opinions are solicited and welcome.

Cheers,

Bill

Idenity of the manufacture of a B 27 compressor
by: Ted Duggan

My compressor has raised letters on the housing. These letters are B 27. There are no other marking that I can see. Do you have any idea who made this compressor, and where I can get parts. I also need a operators manuel.
