Will not build pressure

fix the leak as the pump build pressure switches off , the leak looses pressure pump switches on and so on
fix the leak and the pump will build pressure and switch off until the tap is used

check or replace fuel pressure regulator. symtoms are. lack of fuel pressure, excessive fuel pressure, black smoke and engine running rich, instant drop of fuel pressure, when turned off delay building back up sufficient fuel pressure. also be sure fuel filter is not plugged. check the filter first !!

The problem with compressors not building pressure is usually a bad pressure switch or bad regulator. Does the motor shut off at 20psi or does it continue running and not build pressure? If the motor continues to run with no increase in pressure, the you should go over the machine looking for air leaks from your regulator back all the way to the motor. Any air leak while the compressor is running can cause the pressure to "peak" way before the intended shutoff that it is regulated to.

The check valve is not holding the pressure back off the head,therefore allowing the pressure to build up fully.

Bad check valve. But I would check the regulator, by turning it down to about 10 PSI and running it and see if it builds again, if that works then it is the check valve. But from what you are saying I would replace the check valve anyways.

when i turn it on motor runs but it will not build up air pressure

sounds like valves in head have failed and need to be replaced, that is where I would start looking first.

It looks like there might be a knob which sets the max air pressure coming from the compressor. If there is one, this may have been turned down.

There are usually 3 pressure settings on an electric compressor. Compressor max, pressure switch cut on, and pressure switch cut off.
