<p>[QUOTE="JB7, post: 12381256, member: 339737"]The relief/safety valve I refer to is in the air tank which is after the drier. It relieves excess tank pressure. Yes, plumb a gauge in. How is a restriction between the compressor and drier going to cause high air pressure in the tanks which are after the drier? The restriction you mention would cause high pressure before the drier, not after. Even if there were a restriction between the compressor and drier, if everything is connected correctly, the governor would/should shut off the compressor before the relief valve popped off.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
