titty sprinkles titty sprinkles Post Master Supreme Registered: 08/22/05 Posts: 17192 Loc: Toronto,Ontario	it's a craftsman 150psi 1.6hp 30gal oil-less compressor. mine has been acting up lately. at first i thought there was a crack in the plastic regulator so i bought a princess auto one and replaced it. problem solved i thought, but when the compressor reached 120psi and normally would shut off, it kept going, making the pressure regulator bleed off psi and the motor wouldn't shut off. did some digging, turns out i need the first unit, the compressor switch. ok cool, but A) sears is gay and i have to order it in B) sears is even more gay and wants to charge me $200 + shipping for it. the part number of the switch is z-d23361 but turns out it's made by a company called devilbliss and that part number is 5140153-08. now are all these things the same? i found one that looks like it but with a different part number for just $30, anyone know if that would work? this is the actual one and this is the cheaper one And this is the pos that's causing me grey hair. i don't want to get rid of it because it's a big tank and anything near that size is over $400. plus this one is still good imo. _________________________ 2019 TLX Aspec

The original one says 120/150psi I just got this guy last week. 80psi max lol. Came with a "broken" airbrush that I fixed in 30 min by cleaning. The set costs $600 new. Got it for free _________________________

Some are adjustable for cut off psi as well. If you open the cover you should see the adjustable spring.

It's the same idea for jet pumps for rural and cottages, they have s regulator to shut off when the correct psi is reached and you can buy those at any store
