Small compressor won't hold pressure above 60psi

Compressor builds pressure normally to 60 psi, but will not build further. Motor runs fine, no indication of strain. Checked for leaks with soapy water. None. Very frustrating.

Good of you to write in. I've moved this post to the "compressor won't build pressure" page in the troubleshooting section.

It would be useful for you to visit that page and see that you aren't alone in your compressor problem, and, as well, some of the solutions.

Here are those pages about why a compressor won't build pressure.

Cheers,
