I have a atlas air compressor Xas 185 jd7 that starts up but once I let go of the crank position and it goes in to the run position it turns off won't stay on ?

 Compressor Oil Temp Switch Under Compressor Pump
by: Gary Pearson

Your compressor oil temperature switch is bad. Take the two wires off and put them together and engine should start. Order another switch you do not want to run it long without it connected in case the compressor oil is getting too hot.

 start-up - not

Maybe idle control valve stuck?

A decent diesel mechanic should be able to help you.

Atlas Copco XAS 185 shuts down

I have an Atlas Copco XAS 185 with John Deere engine. when under load it shuts down. I've had fuel and air filters changed, pressure washed the radiator. our dealer can't figure it out.

 xas185jd7 overheating
by: Anonymous

Hi,

I have a xas185jd7 which does the same thing. It will run fine at idle with the air turned off but once the discharge air is being used it overheats the oil and shuts down.
