<p>[QUOTE="Rideandrepair, post: 12380993, member: 168603"]New compressor and gov. Reused the check valve? I had one leaking on my Truck. Same compressor/governor. Probably different air drier. It would barely seep. Eventually got weaker and would pop off for no reason. I wonder if yours has the same valve as mine. Might need a higher psi rating? Try vin# A 10466. That’s for a 99 Classic. See it it’s the same valve. As I recall it’s rated much higher than 150. I could be wrong. I’m guessing they used a new silicone hose from intake to compressor. If not, make sure it doesn’t have a small hole in it. It’s in a very tight spot on the back of compressor. It’ll cause a whistle and boost leak, hard to detect, till it finally completely blows out. They get chafed and can’t be seen, because of its location. Also exposed to a lot of heat at the compressor and are prone to getting weak.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
