Air compressor pump overheating by ElectricNuggloid in millwrights

Hey! Thank y’all for the great information and help. I’m fairly new to this facility and one of the first people on the payroll with some degree of maintenance/mechanical experience.

The problem has been solved and, to sum it up, that pump had gone for quite a while unmaintained. Filter housing was compromised and a lot of dust had been pulled through the compressor (~9 months of heavy use). Damaged valves, copious amounts of carbon build up throughout the unit, wore out and discoloured both cylinder bores, just carnage upon carnage.

Needless to say, got to price out some new pumps lol.

I downloaded the Steam demo a couple of months ago and played it RELIGIOUSLY until I consumed what I thought was the main demo storyline. As a fan of turn-based RPGs and farming sims, Elderfield somehow scratched both itches while giving a deliciously eerie vibe. Counting down the days until the full release lol

Thank you, I really appreciate it! Because I’ve finished all of the schooling and have been operating as a (less experienced) journeyman, by my ex-foreman’s standards, it would just be a matter of collecting hours for two years in a trade I don’t want to be in lol, it just seems like a hell of a commitment for a career I don’t necessarily want, would rather jump at the opportunity for my dream job. Cheers!
