Minor Complication to Fully Blown Electric Auxilliary Port Project...

...all was holding up Incredible. The RPM Switch was doing It's job, the Air Compressor (AC) was pressurizing and the Sleeves were rotating on demand! Except now...

I could still hear the AC, on the preset 3850 rpm, but didn't feel the power unleashing.

I had popped the hood, revved the engine and verified that the AC would go off but would not cause the Actuators to contract. I then pulled the line of the AC and confirmed that no air was blowing from It.

I do admit I have been really pushing my car to the limit, ever since the Install but I don't think the AC could keep up. Do you guys recommend a heavy duty one. I'm not concerned with max psi output but rather longivity?

Sorry. Never heard of them. Do you have a link?

Anyone else can provide a good source to get a durable Air Compressor?

Yea, I was thinking of getting one of those. Like the one on fc3s.org. But thinking of alternatives right now.

BTW, were on the 86+ Caddy's would I be able to find the Air Suspension Compressor?

Cool beans. Maybe you could provide pics that I was unable to post.

Anyone with a source?
