The check valve will only partially cure my problem. I never had it "in service enough" to have a condition where air was constantly being released from the unloader because it was coming from the craftsman tank when the Emglo was stopped. Yes, air was bleeding from the Craftsman tank all the time, but it should have stopped when the unloader valve closed. The root problem is that apparently the unloader valve (if that is indeed what it is) is not closing to block air from escaping. This is apparent because I had the compressor going as fast as I dared (without the whole business falling apart, with the pump and table falling off the sawhorses, tipping over the snowblower, causing a chain reaction which would ulimately cause the garage to collapse and set the house on fire), and although I was managing to get about 80 psi on the line, the air was still escaping out of that orifice.
My conclusions are:
1) My pump RPM are not reaching a threshold to close the valve or:
2) The valve is faulty and not closing when it should. So, is there a way to tell if its a centrifugal valve? If so, about what RPM should it close?
