I found it very easy to figure out what was wrong with my compressor as it took over about 45 min. to build pressure in the tank, after looking at the air filter I knew it was clogged so I ordered one with the piston assembly, It took longer to remove the dust covering of the unit than it did to remove and replace the piston unit. Once it

Removed plastic shroud
removed the conrod bolts ( on both sides required breaker bar to get loose )
reed housing was easy to remove ( take note however which direction the housing is attached ) if you attach it the wrong way, when you start the compressor, you will fill quite a bit of air coming out where there should be no

With the ConRod from Eparts, there were casket rings that were available for replacing in the reed housing.
Using a sturdy piece of metal inserted in the wheel will help remove some of the bolts and allow for the belt drive to be removed for easier install. Once the conrod removed, I observed that there was metal upon metal marks inside the bell housing. This was because there was some breakage in the rubber ring that cause air to leak thru and thus only allow to build up air pressure to go above 50 PSI. With the new conrod in place, it worked great right off the bat.
Took the handle, shroud, and the hose coming from the motor. Had to use the gauges and the pop off valve from the old manifold. Also replace the filter at the bottom of the motor. It was a very simple repair.
1. Removed the cover shroud from compressor/motor. (required long torx 20 driver)
2. Removed the old switch from shroud.
3. Snapped in new switch.
4. Unscrewed old filter and screwed in new one.
5. Tested unit.
6. Reattached shroud.
