Re: Mounting compressor upside down

I have heard that the Viair compressors use gravity-based seals. It's possible that's why you're having those issues. I would also recommend testing your pressure switch, as they come in a number of varieties and aren't very noticeably different from each other. If all else fails, you might want to see if the old Thomas compressors will work for you.
