ITS WORKING!
Went out for lunch today and I guess four hours resting in the sun was enough for a cold start. Cranked the engine and not only did the air pump kick on like it was in the past, but this time it...

I finally had time to work on this yesterday. I figured out that the valve was damaged or seized up as no air was coming out the valve when I disconnected the pressure hose. The link below is very...
