Simple repair
Part was a perfect fit. Hardest part of repair was getting old gasket off. Couldn't find my gasket scraper so used a razor blade scraper, going to be a little more careful next time. Left a little blood for my efforts. The high side of a two stage compressor must get a little hotter with some moisture because old gasket was fused pretty good.

Lost pressure.
James - July 6, 2023
Tool Type
Compressor
Difficulty
Medium
Time
1-2 hours
Tools Used
Socket set, Wrench Set, Wire brush, decal remover spray
Parts Used
1) removed shroud
2) removed outlet tube and o ring
3) removed 4 head bolts
4) disassembled head, reed plate, fan, cylinder sleeve, piston
5) reed broken, sleeve scratched, piston ring worn
6) replaced sleeve, replaced 1 piece piston with 2 piece, replaced both reeds, replaced head gasket
Everything worked fine, running to shut off pressure. Second time went to fill tires and head gasket blew out between chambers. Second time Tried doubling up on gaskets, third time coating in silcone sealant. All have blown head gasket somewhere. 30 year old Craftsman in excellent condition, but may be time for new

1. Disassembled second stage head
2. Replaced head, head gasket, and o-rings
3. Re-assembled, still wouldn't build pressure
4. Ordered new piston and cylinder assembly
5. Installed assembly and unit works like new
Should have known to replace piston and cylinder at initial disassembly because it was showing high wear.
