I had the same problem with my craftsman and I replaced the female on the compressor with a better quality no problems since.
SOURCE: Oil capacity for craftsman air compressor circa 1978 model #106..
I have a 2hp craftsman air compessor with a two cylinder pump, Here is the info from my manual as far as oil capacitity:
Remove oil fill plug and slowly add
a compressor oil until it is even with the
top of the oil fill hole. NOTE: Do not
allow oil to be lower than 3/8"
from the top at any time. When filling
the crankcase, the oil flows very slowly
into the pump. If the oil is added too
quickly, it will overflow and appear to
be full. NOTE: Crankcase oil capacity is
approximately 16 fluid ounces.
I buy my compessor oil from Lowes in the tool department. It comes in 16oz and sells for about $3. I wouldnt worry about how many ounces it holds but rather that the oil level is to top of filler hole. Lowes also sells a synthetic oil for about $7 and is recommended for severe conditions (hot / cold / used all day). Good Luck!
SOURCE: I have a Sears evolv 3 gal air compressor that
The evolv air compressor was primarily designed to power a very small nailer. The pressure regulator (knob in front) should be turned clockwise till it stops to attain full pressure. At this setting it should air your tire. If not you may have a defective regulator. There is a trick to get full pressure from your tank. Notice the small pressure safety valve on the side of the unit. You could remove this valve and install a fitting giving you two ports. One for the safety and other for a quick disconnect. This second port will give you access to tank pressure without going thru the pressure regulator. This mod is safe because you still have access to regulated pressure when you need it. Good luck
Craftsman is a Sears brand. Do you have a local Sears store?? They should be able to help you.. If you don't have a Sears or a K-Mart, you can get on the internet and find an outlet for tool repair parts. That's how I find my lawn mower parts...
