That FleetPride Haldex compressor looked good right out of the box, remanned right here in the USA. Been very happy with it, I think it was $900 and of course the core.

So, I got in last night and messed with the compressor. I put some room temperature water in a spray bottle. I took the inlet from the manifold, pumped the air down to 80lbs. While it was pumping air I sprayed water in the inlet. Its warm here in NC and I didn't use a lot of water. I didn't want to use oil because it would collect dust more. After I put it back together I kept pumping the air down and letting it build and spit off. My dryer works really good, hasn't been long since I replaced the spitter, govenor and filter. I drove it today to load a load for Monday and it sounded really good, no more rattle.
