I've been searching everywhere on the net to try to find any source of information on this compressor. I ran across an old archived thread where somebody was discussing these and a user named NCWayne was posting. It is an old Ingersol Rand tow behind and from what I can tell from piecing together bits and scraps, it is a DR-150 Gyroflo compressor. Had my local heavy equipment shop change all the bad air lines and service it (though they and I still have have no firm idea what motor is in it). The problem I am having is with the engine governor. When I first got it, it was idling way too high and the overpressure valve would blow off every 15 seconds or so. The mechanics changed the air line to the governor which was split. Now it does not accelerate the engine when you open the air taps. They also changed the oil, replaced the oil separator, changed the engine oil, etc. If you disconnect the governor and manually accelerate the engine, it works fine. The regulator/governor says Airglide UR-88 on it. I am searching for a replacement, rebuilt unit, somebody who can rebuild it, or a rebuild kit for it and have had zero luck.
Also, I would like to know if anybody does rebuilds on the Air Ends. It currently puts out enough air to run our smaller media blaster and has already paid for itself in work so I'd like to keep it or put it in good condition to honestly sell.
Also, if anybody can help identify the engine, that would be greatly helpful. I'd like to service the injectors and glow plugs as currently it requires a shot of ether to start.
