Re: 1.1 Pump (am-3227) Really an improvement?

Just for a bit of clarity, the thermal fuse protects the motor from over temp. Nothing to do with the air end getting hot. The air end heat has more to do with the physics of compressing air than compressor design. As others have mentioned using a KOP fan to blow air over the compressor head does wonders for this
