Hi all,

I recently bought a new compressor, it come with no regulator (my first mistake!).

Was trying it last nite, first 10 minutes was ok, and i switch it off to do other job. when i turn it back on after 10 minute, found that the flow was not as smooth as before, spluttering effect (spluttering water actually)...

Any way to rectify? Any advice for external attachments to fix it?

Cheers!

you need something like this (water filter #1 and regulator #2):

these are just examples, you can get this stuff at most tool stores (auto or woodworking) and hardware type stores.

good luck
