So, removing the governor line from the compressor does not make it build air?

Has the coupler broken and the pump not turning?


Remove the intake line, spin motor with starter and see if you feel any suction.

I just checked and there is no suction at all so I think I might have bad air compressor here thanks

Or the coupling has sheared it's drive teeth. They are phonelic composition and if not renewed with the compressor change, are highly suspect.
