I've been running new lines for my compressor and in the process of wiring it to permanent 110v, tired of dragging an extension cord to the compressor room and then the hose back into the shop. Once I have a true need for a larger compressor, the room is already wired with 220v.
Anyways, on to my question.
I still have a small leak at one of the connections that I can't seem to get tight enough. When I get this tight, another pops up, but this is the smallest leak so far. At 5:30 pm I had 150psi on the gauge, when I went and checked at 10:30 this morning (17 hrs later) it was sitting at 30 psi. I know leaks aren't preferred, but would you guys consider this acceptable or not???
Thanks, T
