I forgot to mention the new HE style spinners require an 1/4 inch air line to spin the cartridge I believe.

Update: My 996 is now installed from above.
Jarhead, the air supply DOES NOT drive the centrifuge. Oil supply pressure does.
The air supply needs to be connected, not for drive, but there is a float in the lower portion of the unit. When the float rises, it opens air flow to assist in oil return. If you do not have the air supply connected, the oil is building up in the lowere portion of the body causing drag on the centrifuge. Therefore not allowing the bowl to spin at proper speeds thus it will not do an effective job of separating the solids from the oil. It should spin at over 4000rpm, and 6500 or more is even more effective.
When you "have taken an air gun from my cab and ran the air into a spinner ii the newer style HE model, and that makes it spin so fast I have to stop it before it runs away from me...", you are actually causing it to be driven at PROPER speeds, not run away.
Read the installation/owners manual carefully. Here is the Install/Service instructions for mine. Note Page 4 where it tells how to check correct operation of the air float in the lower portion.

Here is the flyer, note on page 2 the bottom portion is called "Level Control"
